Good Evening Folks,

I am hoping to get some feedback from the members here on Blowout in regards to the following PSA graded card. First off, this is in no relation to the trimming/PWCC stuff that is going on. This card was pack pulled by myself and just recently decided to send it in (unfortunately right before the whole trimming stuff came about) to get graded. I am no expert by any means, but I really thought this card was pretty sharp, outside of the obvious centering issue. My question, did this card get the grade based heavily on the centering? Is centering really that heavily weighted for PSA? Just curious as to other members thoughts. By the way, this was part of a sub that just recently came back to me a few days after the whole PWCC/Trimming stuff came about.

Thanks for your feedback!

Hopefully the image is attached correctly

It’s impossible to see minor surface issues or any print flaws without card in hand and magnification. Also scratches won’t show up with it in the slab as well now either.

Nice card. Definitely slightly OC but imo not enough to be an 8. The top left corner and top edge show some wear but not awful. Coulda just been a tough grader

Thanks. Yeah, I do see the top left corner and the edge on the top right. Interesting. I dont remember them there prior to submitting, but I probably overlooked it. I was hoping it would get at least a 9, but either way I am still stoked to have that card. Numbered out of /25

Thanks again for the feedback!

It's possible the left-right centering is worst than 65-35 which would drop the grade 2 grades down to an 8 unfortunately.

Centering definately would be the main factor. OC L/R when looking at the front. Not sure what back looks like. But all other factors would Probobly have to be perfect to get a 9. So if there is any minor surface scratch or edge or corner issue, it is probobly where it should be.
But great card! Nice auto, Enjoy!

Most likely the left side corners. Two rounded corners and one more flaw (in this case, centering/edge) are usually 8s in my experience.

Great card. I bought 3 or 4 boxes of this hoping to hit one-no luck tho.
With all the fake 10s out there now, I would look at an 8 as honorable at least.
