i have a question or two
if i send a psa card into psa for a regrade e.g
a psa 9 in an old case how do they review it
do they take it out of the case and redo the process or do they just look at the card through the case and not replace the case at all
and crossover from beckett to PSA how much does that cost per card?
Crossovers are the same price as getting it graded and I’m pretty sure they will only crack the case if there is a grade change or you re-encapsulate it.
cheers so on the regrade when u send in the case they only look at it through the case that cant be right surely 
Idk, it just wouldn’t make sense to me if they cracked open a 9 to review it…and it got a 9 again xD
I would imagine if you’re paying them to do a full regrade they would crack the case to do it then put it in a new case. Looking at a card through a case doesn’t seem like a very professional way of grading to me. I’m not an expert on this by any means though.

*"No, if you send a card in for review graders grade your card while it’s still encapsulated and make a decision on whether the grade should be raised. Only if they think the grade should be raised do they then take the card out of the case and put it in a new one.
In short, they can see the old grade. I’ve had success with both cracking cards out of the case and sending them for review (still encapsulated)."*
Reviews are done in case. Sometimes they remove them for an upgrade and notice a surface scuff or the like then recase it in a new case but with the same serial number but at the original number.
