I agree! If that card is a 5, what do you think of this one?

The Mays card must have gotten a bump up based on eye-appeal.
Also, a card can be a PSA 9 in all respects,
but if it has a surface wrinkle, it automatically becomes a PSA 5.
Must be why Stone's Russell card didn't grade any higher.

Stone,
I'm sitting on a bunch of Goudey 5s like your Jack Russell. It can make you sick to your stomach especially when 3/4 of the 5s are sliders with corner wear and crap centering.
It kills the appeal of the set registry. I have a Dizzy Dean PSA 5 that is nicer than 95% of all the PSA 7s I've seen. I sent it in and didn't get a bump. This grading sh!t is total nonsense. I hope everyone realizes it. Half my cards are misgraded. I wish there was just an authentification service and I could let the cards speak for themselves.
Best,

The seller says: "Personnally I think it should of gotten at least a 6." Oh yeah, that's a borderline NM, all right.
A grader who is hung over and unable to focus his eyes or think clearly would not grade that card a PSA 5. Somebody is going to be a very unhappy camper when he receives that card. I wonder if the jury-rigged holder will fall apart in transit.
What can I say it's a beautiful card that is hard to come by in this good of condition. Personnally I think it should of gotten at least a 6
<< <i>Does this card seem overgraded? I'd say that's a 4 at best, no? >>
don't the grading standards say a card that's been used as dental floss on all four corners grade no better than 2? That card looks like somebody did some nibbling...BTW, anybody see this l'il gotcha buried away in his listing?
"Seller's payment instructions & return policy
All graded cards are final and no returns."
He's got some raw Cracker Jacks that look pretty good and are getting some healthy bids, but I wouldn't trust them either. Wish there were someway to shut this guy down.

Be careful what you wish for. Since I had the metal plate removed from my cranium, I am incessantly bombarded with messages from the cards in my closet. Just last nite I overheard them plotting against me and I now fear for my life. I now sleep with my Feljowes A73 paper shredder at my side for protection. I think their incarceration into tiny plastic holders has driven them to insanity and even my 78T Bruce Sutter diamond cut has demonstrated hostile tendencies that I would only expect from a more truculent Yankee starter! I have affixed a bolus of aluminum foil to my head but the messages are still percolating through!
Yikes Stone ! - you may have just crossed over into
"How about a little fire Scarecrow ?"
if it is a 5 it should be a 6 etc.....
