Great grading by GRA

They gave this Murray rookie a 10, the centering is 9.5. Are they blind??

Maybe they use the SGC 100 point grading system

Why is this surprising?
If Stevie says it's a 10, then it's a 10.

The red inner-border is completely showing. So what's the beef?

Nobody worries about the white outer border anyway.

You guys know that this wouldn't happen if you would just "stick" with my grading company - PGS -
Pogo Stick Grading!



And our head grader isn't blind - just plain....



You've tried all the rest...now stay with the Best!

GRA absolutely sucks, but they're not as bad as GEM Elite. I only say that because the crappy slabs they use also make it very easy to spot whether or not the card has been trimmed. Instead of a box type enclosure, there is recess cut into one side of the slab. Trimmed cards show up like a light bulb when stored in these. The negative about the slab is that it's also VERY easy to hide just about any imperfections with the corners and surface.

I bought an 85 Donruss Roger Clemens graded by GRA as a 10 a while back. The sub-grades were 10, 10, 10, and 10. Upon cracking open the slab, I'd the card couldn't grade any more than a PSA 8 or BGS 8.5. I would complain to the company, but good luck finding them on the net. I'm not even sure if they're still around.
