good luck

I sincerely doubt it will cross to a 10, card is definitely in 9 condition though, so still a worthy venture to cross.

PSA 8

Worst time to grade with PSA right now

Best of luck to you!

Im glad you went for it. That said, PSA has been extremely harsh with oldschool english, like absurdly critical to the point where it’s a completely different standard than before. But if you end up with an 8 like some are suggesting, you should also give Beckett a shot. You’ll likely at least get a .5 bump to a 9 and Beckett has been performing better than CGC when it comes to sales as of late.

Shipped. Will be ripping a booster box of destined rivals to cope in the interim. If PSA doesnt grade it a 10 ill charge back and move on to BGS.

My emotional investment in this, low as it is, is still disappointingly high. Look forward to the scans

I really hope it works for him, but a 8.5 surface grade.. can be really hard in PSA

If it’s an older CGC cert then an 8.5 surface grade could be a very minor issue or a very major one. It’s not consistent.

PSA 10s don’t need flawless surfaces.

I’d expect a psa 9 from the images though.
