If all of the pop reports are inflated about the same then the distortion shouldn't be a huge issue. However if there is one type of card that seems to be resubmitted more frequently than it might be a problem.

Those of you who have re-submitted, was it random material or did most of the items fall under a certain category?

The categories of resubmissions are all over the place, although if I had to guess which type of card has the most inflated pop reports it would be T206.

Default Personal opinion
My personal opinion is that I don't think pop (everytime I hear the term I think of "there goes the weasel) reports are very accurate at all. With the internet really only about 15 yrs old I think there is much more we don't know about, than what we do know about. Give it another 25 yrs and we will be in a better position to answer this question, imo. With the things I collect, when someone mentions "pop report", I just laugh. How about "what are the total number known?". Many, many cards are not graded either. regards
