Mine that was entered on 10/13 is still in research 
I got back my July special subs and noticed this as well but it wasn’t anything crazy like one or two white spots. Also my cards actually got a better/what I expected to get which tells me they were probably damanged during assembly. One of the bigger issues I have is of the 12 cards I sent, 2 of the cards are more loose in the slab than others?

The cards are probably more “straight” compared to the others. Slight warped cards tend to not move in the slabs. No problem there.
Hmm the 2 cards that are moving are up and down and not side to side and non holo.
Does anyone know why PSA doesn’t grade/recognize Spanish EX Ruby and Sapphire? After a few years of waiting for the price to drop, I’m finally looking to make my first submission. I would like better clarity on why these cards still aren’t recognized in their system and if there’s potential to see them added in the future. If anyone has any information, please let me know!
Sent a card to CGC that wasn’t in their registry yet because I figured they have a good rep for labeling cards PSA doesn’t. Haven’t heard anything yet and we’ve exceeded the estimated turnaround.
I wonder if it’s because I sent in a weird card that requires more analysis or if they’re just behind.
I haven’t had to contact CGC in a while, but last time I had to contact them they were pretty timely to reply

Anyone else get an error page when they attempt to go to their My Account page on their PSA account?
Anyone know what this actually is? And how would it affect grading? It only appears at certain angles.

I think it’s a print dot. Nothing crazy, but I think that if doesn’t go unnoticed will prevent the card from getting a 10. Hope it helps!

Likely a print dot if it’s pack fresh. We (graders) have ways to tell if dots like this are damage/ink/etc. Generally speaking if an “imperfection” is determined to be factory-made it’s graded much less harshly. Depending on the company some may also give a higher grade with qualifiers (CGC, or ours of course) in lieu of downgrade for recognized factory imperfections. Others may simply count it as damage flat out and dock the grade. Either way I don’t see this taking off more than a grade if it’s as unnoticeable as you’ve described. Hope this helps.

Aw nuts. It’s visible to my naked eye unfortunately, so I don’t think this would get the 10 (BGS, at least). Thanks gang!

BGS is very tough to pull a 10 in, one of the many things I like about them. But yeah unfortunately not going to clear their “eye appeal” qualifier for a 10.

I know it is not easy to look at pictures and see what is wrong, but recived back a card from PSA today, that I can’t figur out what is wrong with.
Earlier PSA had scan of the cards, and was easier to see thing there, but, hope that you can see something on these pictures?
Is it possible to contact PSA and they can answer why they gave a card a grade? Do they have “record” of why?
Sadly PSA doesn’t have that kind of records, at least not publically. Maybe the card has a slight crease somewhere.
hi, some of my cards have little ups and downs on the frame instead of being a flat line, will they get a psa 10 if it’s the only flaw ?
