Seriously, a lot of these that were graded out as 8's seemed like 9.5 or 10's. Centered, sharp edges and corners, no surface damage, etc. Also, not sure which grading service it is, but it lists the 4 grades, so you can see why it wouldn't have scored a 9 or a 10. Kind of messed up that PSA doesn't do that.

IMO => FOR PSA it's all about the corners (70%), then 15% L-R, 10% T-B, 5% everything thing/anything else. It's WRONG but THEY ARE VERY CONSISTENT ABOUT IT. PSA is terrible about FOCUS DIFFERENCES, COLOR DIFFERENCES, PRINT DEFECTS, PRESSING, TILT. But 100% on MISCUTS, creases, wrinkles, min size requirements, altered/colored and paper loss. They occasionally MISS TRIMMING. So you'll know i'm not THEIR GUY => MOST CARDS LOOK BETTER IN SGC HOLDERS

Y'all are giving PSA too much credit. I've seen balled up, completely rounded corner Jordans that were 6s and 7s. There wasn't anything wrong with those cards except centering. PSA doesn't want high pop counts due to the massive influx of cards. The more high graded cards they give, the greater supply, the more useless their service. Hell at least they slabbed your cards. They sent mine back as altered and trimmed. 🤣 And I wouldn't dare take a scalpel to my cards; I barely wanted to touch them to put in Card Savers. I was trembling the entire time. Time to put the middle finger up to PSA

I actually watched you open this whole box and I'm surprised that you only got two nines out of that whole box amazing

[@chrismcdaniel4880]

Yes Geoff you and Mark are right in my opinion. I had a 88 fleer box as well and I just recently sold it for 5k. Now I'm wishing I had another one lol. I recommend anyone who has this box as I did to hang on to it. Growing up with this particular product we all knew most of these cards were mostly off centered. But yes anyone who has this 88 fleer basketball hang on to it and don't open it.

I used to eat that vintage gum in front of the kids in my card shop back in the day...it was like a comedy routine...it's basically compressed dust by then...

[@day-trishad3937]

The crunch of that gum sounded Like a kettle cooked potato chip. I’m dying laughing here.

That’s why I prefer BGS...at least you know what the sub grades are and you aren’t guessing

And I just sent a 1985 Jordan Jewel Prism card to PSA on SATURDAY!!!!!

[@dc48664]

I think PSA is grading harder recently, but I haven't experienced it personally thankfully. Just received back two 1988 Fleer a week ago and I got a PSA 9 Pippen and and PSA 10 Rodman. Both were purchased raw off of eBay!

[@BoutTime73]

Flawless, out of packaging, almost 30 years later and these 7 rankings. Can you submit to others?

[@petes2feet]

I've been waiting on this. Let's go Geoff and Mark.

[@sedataiousmiles4348]

That crunch was brutal

[@dangoolsby5173]

So what is the value of the graded cards compared to what you paid?

[@wesleygambill8259]

This helps make up my mind on sending my Jordan's to PSA.

[@lilbill271]

Idk who to send my cards to now after this. Any suggestions??

[@GIFFLIX]

Jeeez those were some brutal grades on cards that looked beautiful!! Are they grading with an electron microscope?

[@dustinroberson1865]

Knowing that people will continue to send cards in to be regraded especially if they are an 8 or 9. Why would PSA rate many cards a 10? Job security.

[@dentyph5169]

These days I think it's always better keeping them boxed. But there's always that chance of getting that 1 card that changes everything 🤣

[@Poochie78]

PSA ain’t controlling nothing! You have to pick better cards

[@LDehaut]

7:12 the guy on the right is like: "Oops, that was being recorded, I'm such a baby and I'm 59". LMAO

[@djdestroyer]

That first Jordan looked so nice, was thinking 9 or even maybe more.

[@josephkaiser2964]

Mark's legendary comb over. PSA 10!!!!!!!!

[@MixxinOnChrome]

What if you just send in the same cards again for grding and you get totally different numbers. Then it would show its just random and personal how the grading goes at PSA
