1955 Topps All American Grading Question...To Qualify or Not??

I have a situation where I have had approx. 80 out of a 100 cards graded on my 1955 Topps All American Football set.
The majority of the set has been graded PSA 7's and 8's No Qualifier's.
I do have maybe half a dozen cards that do have qualifier's and they are all 8OC.
Now I am down to my last 20 cards and I would say that the majority of them would be graded as PSA 8OC or if I asked for no qualifier's, most likely they would all come back straight PSA 6's.
So my question to you guy's is:
Since 80% of my set is PSA 7's & 8's NQ's would I be better just to take the qualifier's on the last 20 or so cards keeping my set virtually all 7's & 8's.....although it would be approx. 25% Qualifier's.
Or should I take the straight 6's, and keep the complete set virtually qualifier free??
Hope to hear from Skin's fan and a couple other's of you out there.
Many thanks for your take, I certainly appreciate it!!

Thanks a lot for the post and your thoughts.
I really appreciate it.
Any chance of me getting your email address, as I have a few more questions re. the 55 Topps AA issue and I know you are one of the heavy's in it??
You can email me at robinson209@comcast.net if you are so inclined.
Thanks again.
Cardcrazy,
There is no place on the PSA submission form specifically to request No Qualifier's that I know about.
I just write: NO QUALIFIER'S PLEASE in large letters side ways in the MIN. GRADE (Crossover Only) column, and that seems to do the trick for me.
Maybe, someone else has a better method??

Thats the method I use. I believe in making it absolutely unmistakeable about what my desires are.
