Qualifiers and Weighted?

If a set is not weighted, then each card has no multiplier... correct? What about "Qualifiers"... is a card is a 9OC, is it given the same score as a 9?

I believe the first part of your question is correct. As for the second part, If a card has a qualifier,it drops the card two grades.IE: 9oc becomes a 7 in the registry.

So, if a set of 80 cards has a potential of 8.70, but the total in the population report is 690/80 or 8.63, then there are some cards that have been graded but haven't been updated in the population report? So the registry is live (updated as it happens) and the population report is up to a week behind?

If I am correct,the set is weighted and the population report has no "real"reflection on the grades other than an initial possible higher weight based on the scarcity of the cards.I am not even sure if that comes into play.More important is the importance of a card in the set(ie: key rookie cards or star cards carry more weight than commons)

llafoe,

The Pop Report is updated every Monday, I believe. If you are referring to the highest GPA possible for a set, these are not updated regularly. Some are way off.

Vic is correct about the qualifiers knocking you down 2 points as far as the set registry is concerned - i.e. a PSA 9OC is worth 7 points and a PSA 8PD is worth 6 points.

If you are interested in the calculations done on the set registry, check out this thread.

Let me know if you have any other questions - I'd be happy to help.

JEB.

Not really; the multiplier is 1 for each card!
