But I am sure they make exceptions for submitters on the Animal Farm plan.

I keep telling myself that about the BGS 8 (centering 7.5, corners 9.5, edges 9.5 surface 9) we sold a few years ago before PSA started grading them.

What's the old saying? A day late and a dollar short? We were a couple years early and about $30,000 short.

Yeah, I bought my 8 which should be an 8.5 many moons ago. It would be a crime to put it in a 7 holder or even 7.5 IMO.

So what did the police say?

I heard that some of the Beckett graded examples are under-sized and PSA won't grade these. So, people just leave them in the Beckett holders.

I used to have a BGS 7.5 that I sold years ago (before PSA started grading them). Like hundreds of others before me, I too tried to get them to grade the Star cards and even spoke to Joe Orlando, but they didn't give a sh*t. It doesn't bother me that much though because my 7.5 had centering issues and corner wear, and would've probably graded a PSA 5.
