Looks like your Berk Ross is graded authentic not a "1". What attributes make it graded "authentic". Also why are you asking more than book? Thanks

It is kind of stupid to ask more than VCP for the cards. Thus, I lowered the prices. I originally set the prices at more than VCP because I thought best offers would be considerably less and I want to get prices in accordance with general market value, which VCP tracks.
As for why PSA graded the card Authentic rather than PSA 1, I asked them that question when I got the card graded at the National last week. They said that they could have just as easily graded it PSA MK due to the indention of what looks like a pencil mark that has been erased to the left of his head. Also, the card is stained some, and I believe they could have also added the qualifier of ST. They told me that they would reholder it as PSA 1 MK if I wanted them to, but that I would likely be better off with an Authentic grade. The card does have decent corners for what that's worth.

Wow,
I had no idea you could "barter and bargain" with PSA.....I dont think thats right....they give a card a PSA 2...and say " well,I tell you what I'll do..I make it a PSA 3 with MK..if you like" .... that doesnt sound very professional for a grading company to do |

Yes, me too... Im a PSA holder ..cracker .. kind of guy... its a shame you sometimes pay more because a card is in a holder..although sometimes is funny...a guy selling a PSA enclosed card..and he only wants like 5 or 7 bucks for it..probably what it cost to grade the thing !

The accurate grade for my card is probably PSA 4 or 5 MK ST. It has decent corners. It has the indentions of a pencil mark. It has a stain.
Have you ever seen a card graded with two qualifiers? My guess is that they just gave it Authentic because it has the two problems. But they did say they could have assigned the grade of PSA 1 MK. Who knows? Who cares? It is a low grade Mantle. |
