Would you???

If you owned this card would you send it back to PSA to regrade it without the OC qualifier?

handyman · October 24, 2022 2:38PM

No

pab1969 · October 24, 2022 2:38PM

No. I think it is graded accurately. Still a nice card.

DBesse27 · October 24, 2022 3:34PM

Yes. I despise qualifiers. I’d rather have the straight grade.

PSA could solve a lot of problems just by grading such cards, say, "8 (OC) = 4." I wonder if they've ever considered that, and what the reasons not to do it were.

It counts as a 6 right now. Is the idea/hope that it lands higher as a result or you just want a new unqualified slab?

Inquiring minds want to know

would want a straight 6- 7 (high hopes). L/R is find Just off top to bottom and not egregious enough for the qualifier according to the vast majority of cards I have seen

While likely a 6, I agree that 6.5 or even 7 are not outside the realm of possibility.

Edit to add: beautiful card btw!

I love the card. It seems to be graded correctly.

ldferg · October 24, 2022 7:56PM

Yes. I'm not a fan of the quals. I prefer the grade and take the quals into consideration.

dontippet · October 24, 2022 9:07PM

I know I'm in the minority, but I actually like qualifiers. It gives a brief description and reason for the grade.

Qualifiers reduce the grade by two, unless they create a number less than one.

PSA 8 (O/C) = PSA 6

craig44 · October 25, 2022 5:37AM

I would regrade without qualifiers.

I've been asking the same question for a while now. I had felt ripped off on this 1968 Topps Roberto Clemente grade, but I still haven't submitted to another service elsewhere or resubmitted it back to PSA.

I've even considered why wasn't it a PSA 9OC instead?....of course, that is subjectively based on which side of the bed the grader woke up on that day...lol

Any thoughts are appreciated.

brad31 · October 25, 2022 9:00AM

No.

1959 · October 26, 2022 8:29AM

No also.

gameusedhoop · October 26, 2022 9:53AM

I like the 8OC better than a straight 5 or 6. It shows that the surface, corners, registration and sides are all 8 worthy, the only issue is OC. If it was a 5 or 6 I'd be wondering if there are other issues too. Think of it as subgrades 8, 8, 8, 6 with the OC designation. Or a straight 6 with "possibly, but not in this case" 6, 6, 6, 6.

nam812 · October 26, 2022 4:11PM

OC top to bottom bothers me way less than OC left to right.

Speaking of reviews, this is in the recent communication:

Note: Crossovers and Review services are excluded from Bulk and Value.

So basically, any reviews must be at the $50 economy level or higher. With that being said and the grading standards being more strict, I would keep that Mantle/Aaron in the current holder.

Wow nice catch. More greed from PSA out in the open. Takes less time, supplies, and other resources to regrade a card, yet they are charging more. lol

Would you???
