Dmitri Young got some PSA love...

That's the way the card was produced. There is no flaw. That's why it can be a 10.

I don't think anything is entirely flawless and each "thing" would have to be defined in its own way. The three companies were careful to qualify flawless with "virtually" or something similar. But without reading too deep into it, a ten seems to carry an implication of flawlessness. Now I don't even know what I'm talking about. Just think a ten carries too much value...

Couldn't the same be said for an off-center or mis-cut card? I'd pay more for a card that does not have a rough cut vs one that did all other variables being equal.

The rough cut effects a sizeable portion of the overall production of cards, at least from my observations. I think it's a different situation than an off center card.

I'm with Steven. Rough-cut flaw is the same as miscut flaw is the same as off-center flaw. There are plenty of sets notorious with bad centering, doesn't make it OK, just like rough-cuts.

But is it really a rough cut or just the cut of the cards? I think that's the distinction.
