Grading Question - c3po error

Will PSA grade the C-3PO error card from the 1977 set? I purchased one, creased in a complete set, that may get a 4 or 5.


Thanks,

David (LD_Ferg)

    It's my understanding that they graded a few years ago but quickly stopped.

    Which seems kind of silly to me, since you can get Hitler cards and cards with swastikas graded. Aren't those a little more offensive than some robot dinky?

    No they do not grade that card anymore.

    Completely annoying and obnoxious that they still will not grade this card. I could see if it were a card of Han Solo, but C-3PO?

    The odds of PSA agreeing to grade that card are approximately 3,720 to 1.

    The image on the front of the card shows C3PO with what one would call a "testosterone rush in the morning".

    Agreed. I'm not sure how this outranks the ProSet football error. Have they stopped grading that one as well? I think it's in the 90 or 91 ProSet.
