PSA Grading: New Mylar / Sleeve Backing

I’m seeing more and more that PSA is putting a protective mylar film layer on the back of cards when they get slabbed. :man_shrugging: It makes the card backs look terrible, because it reflects light in a wonky way. It would make it impossible to get a clean scan of a card too. Hopefully they get rid of this quickly.

Lol and we thought they’d make BGS more like them, not the other way around

I think the generally consensus is that they ran out of their TCG slabs at certain facilities. All of my most recent submissions (including a few that have been completed within the last 3 weeks) are in normal TCG slabs.

Good! Very glad to hear this isn’t the new norm.

I’m lowkey pissed off. I have a 50 card submission getting graded as we speak and I DO NOT want that ish in my slabs.

Me either. :sweat_smile: Hopefully they’re not. The most recent comments on this thread look like PSA is fixing whatever the issue was.
