Technical grade is separate from qualification. Corners, edges & surface make the card an 8. 60/40 or better centering make it an unqualified 8. Worse than 60/40 gets the oc designation. 100/0 gets the mc for miscut designation. Their system grades the physical characteristics of the card then the characteristics of the image. I hear plenty of complaints of oj cards with practically invisible images getting high technical grades from sgc and not properly taking image into account.

Many buyers would tend to agree bc an 8oc usually sells at a 5or 6 price. therefore, I didn't understand the need to put an 8 in the slab. what is the point if you are going to get a price that is 2-3 full grades below. |

Because buyers know an 8oc is not the same as an eight and pay accordingly. Would you rather a card with 61/39 centering get a 6 and then have to wonder why it got marked down? And again, a 100/0 card dies not get an oc. It gets a mc. Sgc has no problem ignoring mc cards and failing to mark down for it. I'd rather have the info clearly on the flip rather than having to guess what sgc saw or didn't see.

Remembered something: a friend of mine bought a PSA 7 Dale Murphy RC last year and brought it over to show me. He had paid approx max of what a 7 would bring but the card was a 7 OC. Because he was a new collector, he had no idea what OC meant, just thought he bought a 7. Therefore based on that, Qualifiers are useless and in a way defeats the purpose of TPG's.
