Did the rivera have that ding on the bottom right corner when you sent it in? Just wondering.

Do t believe so. Think centering is the beef on both But what you gonna do. I can see 9s on any Just don’t see the 7 on Rivera.

So far I'm not seeing where you got "hammered."
I haven't looked at all of them, but the '89 FFs, Randy, and Bo that got 9s, I personally wouldn't expect 10s from those.
The Griffey getting an 8 may be because of the top cut. I have a similar looking Nolan Ryan they gave a 7 for that.
The Doc Gooden registration is bad with the yellow print, and yellow ink being on the border.
The Canseco/Plunk could maybe pass as an 8, but I wouldn't call (-1) grade getting "hammered."
Are there any you could point out thinking they were off by several grades?

Actually I was just hoping for a +1 on 1 or 2 cards. The Rivera as a 7 was a little shocking to me and thought that I could scratch one 10 out of the others

something tells me the grader has issues with knowing centering on certain sets...like the 1989 Fleers..if he/she is using the amount of gray under Fleer in the bottom right as the bottom border, instead of how much is under the blue point from the blue diagonal line on the left, then yeah, it is off centered to the bottom...but comparing the space below that blue point and what is above the player name, then they are very good...same thing with the 86 Fleer Canseco...if using what is to the left part of the card as the top border instead of what is above Fleer, then yeah, the card is off centered towards the top...but if using what is above Fleer and comparing that to the bottom border, then it is good...do we really think all graders know what is to be used for centering on cards where the borders aren't clearly defined?

Some really nice cards @rexvos ! 8's are a bit harsh, and and 9/10 are a coin toss sometimes it seems. Solid centering on the ones I looked at.

Look like a right corner touch on the 1989 Fleer Griffey. If so then given Junk Wax era an 8 is appropriate.

Thing is in PSA 9 the 89 Fleer Griffey currently sells for a mere $18-$25 (and will go lower) which is less than the cost of the grading/slabbing/shipping thus a very risky propo$ition to submit one of them.

1986 Fleer Canseco - backs are a huge problem with that issue. Without seeing back of card a valid opinion is not possible.

As pointed out above while 1985 Gooden displays nice but has some yellow ink or staining of left side border. IMHO it's a candidate for a nice magnetic holder not a PSA slabbing at present day prices

Please note those are the only 3 cards "I've reviewed" and apologies if my comments on them are a bit strong.
