I am finding that centering is the big issue in the stack I have. I must have submitted all my well centered cards already as I pulled a bunch of 10's on the ones I have submitted already.

Wow an 80% gem rate is crazy... that's impressive

My gem rate is probably under 50%... in my defense though I don't use a centering tool... I also send stuff that I know won't get a 10 but I just want a graded copy of the card in my binders...

I think if I were to be a little more selective I could get over a 50% gem rate... I don't mind 9s though because I feel like in 10 years or so I'd rather have a 9 over the card raw
