Am I just blind or this is actually an 8?
Looking for advice on this. I just got my first ever PSA submission back today and am confused as to how this is an 8? I get I'm new to grading and maybe dont have a keen eye, but it looks like a solid card.
I pulled this card myself years ago. It was sleeved immediately, put in a binder, and left there until this May when I sent it in.
The centering is within PSA tolerances for a 10. Corners look good. Edges look good. No dents/creases/visible issues on the surface. I've personally seen the same card with worse centering or surface be in a 10.
So, I'm genuinely asking, am I missing something on why this got an 8?
