1979 Topps Gretzky - which grade would you rather have?

It got a 9 OC. I am fairly certain (I didn't make scans prior to submission) it is better than 70/30, so I think it would make a straight 8. I did not indicate 'no qualifiers'. This is part of my personal collection. I just thought I should get it graded. I did not include the OPC as that one is definitively OC , probably 85/15 to 90/10, but otherwise a 9.

Thank you for any opinions. The card is still at PSA, btw.

    I never take qualifiers. kinda like having a big sign on the card blatantly saying "hey look at this"

    No question I'd take a straight 8 over a 9 (OC), but assuming it would grade a 7 NQ which is probably more likely considering the grade you received (obviously can't say for sure without seeing it), in the specific circumstance of a 1979 Gretzky, I might go with the 9OC over the 7NQ. Now what about a 7.5?

    If I was looking to keep the card, it wouldn't matter to me what the label says. It's still the same card.
