An experiment with PRO

Posted By: MW

T206monsta --

The type of "errors" that PSA frequently makes while encapsulating vintage baseball cards are not those that can be classified as normal typographical or clerical mistakes; they are not mathematically related to the quantity of cards graded. Instead, they generally showcase an astonishing lack of knowledge and expertise as E-cards, T-cards and various N-series issues are commonly mislabeled and misgraded.

Furthermore, the encapsulation of so-called "mint" condition 19th and early 20th century cards is extremely troublesome and clearly defies most known standards of normal, grade-adjusted distribution. The bottom line is that I don't trust vintage PSA 8s and PSA 9s and I don't think many on this chatboard do either.
