PSA now recognizes Ghost Stamp Pikachu

[Quuador]

Lol… Sometimes I really don’t get PSA. In the past they’ve graded most errors, but without distinguishing them on the label. Then a few years back they decided to stop grading almost any error. And now they’re adding them back again (or at least the first)…

What about No Rarity Venusaur/Raichu, though? Or all the other well-known errors.
I’ve also heard they had stopped grading the glossy French Pikachu from the Japanese Gotta Magazine, even though they usually grade foreign cards from English/Japanese speaking countries (i.e. Pikachu World Collection; Art Academy cards; etc.)

Does PSA even know themselves what they do and don’t grade at this point?.. Because I honestly don’t.

Anyway, if I ever decide to grade any errors, I’ll use CGC. PSA is still great for English/Japanese cards in general, though. If only their times would improve, but given the amount of collectors/investors/whatever_label these days that send in cards for grading, it wouldn’t surprise me if we’ll have turnaround times of almost a year in a few years from now.

Too little, too late for me. I don’t plan on sending any errors to PSA again. It’s great news for many people though, I’m sure

What’s up with the random spaces, double ‘N’ and trailing ‘}’, though?

The consequences of possession and dark ritual also include poor grammar.
