| @ComicNinja0215 PSA has been around a very long time. Like CGC they were bought out and the new company is expanding their business model. They are probably the gold standard in Pokemon cards. I have a bunch of sports and non-sports cards that I always use Beckett for grading. Their labels look better and they offer sub-grades, they grade the corners, the surface, the centering and the edges. It's to show how they arrived at their grade. Kind of a graders note. @flanders They don't want you to confuse them with anyone else. 🤣 It looks like the area around the book itself is frosted. I wonder if that has anything to do with their "Superior" tamper-resistant cases? |

| The PSA cases look wider....or the comic inside is narrower. | ||

| I'm sure with a little creative input they can make a pretty label. Depends on who is running the show. | ||

 It's like the Roach Motel for comic collectors.

| I'm fine with the PSA case. The comic within is the only thing that matters, no matter who produced the case. It's primary job is to protect the cargo. If it's doing that, all good. If the basic info is on the label, that works for me. It could even be an "angry girlfriend" label for all I care. Not getting hung up on aesthetics. |

| If that's the label brand style they've been using for card for decades then I say keep the brand style. It'll definitely stand out from blue labels. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by GAC The comic grade findings form at the bottom could be useful but seems like it would better suited to just be posted online with the grading notes. Otherwise, it looks totally amateur, but a step up from Midwest Comic Grading. Both are probably more accurate than the Mr. Magoos that CGC employs. |
