Hi everyone, I just wanted to add some examples. These got graded mid/late December 2024 and I got them back early January 2025. Out of all the similar cards graded in that lot, these 2 are the only ones that got PSA 9 and personally I think due to centering. Obviously not 100% conclusive as I could’ve missed things and there could be some variance on the centering app too, but these were above 55/45 and below 60/40.
I wonder where the cut off is for psa 10? 56/44? 57.5/42.5? In my example of 1 sample size, 57/43 did not make the cut.
The Suicune definitely looks out of range top to bottom. The Entei looks a little heavy on the right side and a little on the bottom, but if you told me that card was a PSA 10, I would believe it. There are definitely 10’s with worse centering.
Agreed as suicune was T/B 41/59. Card centering calculator on iOS. Free version comes with ads (tolerable enough), but I ended up paying $2.99 or something to remove ads. In my experience, scanning through app doesn’t work well. I strictly use photos and adjust borders myself. It does have a small glitch where the border cursor moves a bit like a pixel or two which happens randomly, but you can work through it.
