Do slight surface wrinkles on the back of our cards automatically drop them to a psa 4 or 5 at best?

    Typically a PSA 5 if all else is good
    I am actively buying MIKE SCHMIDT gem mint baseball cards. Also looking for any 19th century cabinets of Philadephia Nationals. Please PM with additional details.

    Mike...this is good info, I wish PSA would define wrinkles vs creases and apply them to their grading standards. I have several cards in this category, and feel they would qualify as a PSA 5, but would like something more definitive written.

    Maybe Botox would help with those wrinkles?

    Of course I doubt the cards are as vain as the human female!!

    Botox, distilled water, it's all the same.

    So how do you apply the distilled water.....with a small paint brush??
    Won't this leave a faint mark of some sort??

    That's my main beef with graded cards and companies. If you can see such wrinkles with a naked eye, then it should be graded down. If it takes a very powerful loupe or a microscope or extraordinary lighting conditions, then no way it should be graded down.
