I just had an SGC 92 cross over to a PSA 6!!! I (and SGC) must have missed a surface wrinkle on the back. Anyway, nobody's perfect...

    Did you crack it out or not request a minimum crossover equivalency? I hope that it wasn't too expensive, but that's quite a drop...

    You'll sometimes find faint surface wrinkles on hi-grade graded cards. A dealer will "rub" out a wrinkle, submit with express service and sell the card ASAP. Weeks are months later the wrinkle will reappear and people wonder how this could've happened.

    I've seen/heard of this happening from ALL the big three graders...
    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.

    crack it back out and fix the wrinkle. There are ways to do things or send it into pro

    Just to echo much of what was said above...I have a '72 Mays PSA-8 that has a wrinkle in it. I have had the card for years (maybe 7 or 8) and am 100% confident that the card did not have it when I purchased it. I recently pulled a bunch of cards out of storage and could not believe what I saw. image

    Many factors could have caused this........I'm not crying.

    That's too bad Mark - what was the card?

    Ya know, I'm not an SGC lover or for that matter a lover of any grading company but I do have a very strong affinity for cold Buds and sausage and pepper pizzas.

    Hey Mike,
    It was a 1993 Finest Refractor of Reggie Jefferson, a pretty low pop card in the set. It happens, I should have left it in the SGC holder, but I was tryin' for the 9. Otherwise, the card met PSA's 9 standards...

    Mike,
    I'll take a look when I get it back from PSA. I can't believe I missed it!

    I've never owned a '93 Finest Refractor, but don't shiny cards have a tedency to scratch easily? Just a thought...

    I wondered about that too Brian.

    I have a ton of those kinds of cards - and if you angle them in the light - many have very light scratches - my guess is it happened during the cutting and packaging.

    Of interest tho - I have a mess of 1960 commons with very, very light scratches too - I would imagine they would kill me on grading?

    IMExperience PSA does not let light surface scratches slide. Whenever I get one of those 'mystery 7's' that's usually why.
