    Not anyone else's fault that you are sending in cards that people don't value as high as you did.  

    You said in another thread that you got junk grades, meaning you don't know how to pre-grade, as well. Again, that's not anyone's fault but yours.

    They’ve been in the grading business much longer.  I think based on many factors including billing far in advance of getting cards, the claim they are the hardest grader, etc.  No one is saying it doesn’t make sense for a select few.  Also BGS killed themselves by encouraging no subs and shutting down for so long.   They basically refused business also and cut their own nose off. You also would think if a company were giving out tougher grades then their cards would be more scarce and sell higher.   Short sided maybe but turning a profit several times over before CSG catches up isn’t a dumb concept.  One day they may be the place to go.   Just not now for me.   But hey if you like being billed 2 -3 months before getting your orders, If you like pop control grades, and a neon label in a big plastic holder then that’s your call.  Mine was to give them a chance.  They delayed all orders, lost CC #s,  billed early, and the grades were inconsistent as different orders rolled back to me.  Short sided doesn’t really fit my experience.  All companies service is bad.  Most just have some upside currently.  Lastly no one expects them to sell at PSA level but more than 20% over raw would be nice.  Lol

    Selling for the cheapest is temporary. I don't know why people are expecting a company that's been in business for just a year to have the same ROI as PSA when other grading companies that have been around decades still don't. The short sightedness of this hobby is staggering.

    That's how it is with all subcategories. The final grade can never be more than 1 point higher than the lowest sub grade. The most you could have hoped for with a surface grade of 4 is a 5. If they only gave it a 4.5 it probably means the surface flaw seriously impacts the visual presentation of the card.

    A grade of 4 on the surface isn't being harsh - that means there is some significant damage to the card's surface. You'll need to post some actual photos of the card and not just a cell phone picture of a computer monitor showing the scan.

    Don’t use this company.  It takes your money.  Every card 9 or higher will still be lower than raw value.  9.5 equals PSA 8.

    I know it must be frustrating, but I'm not sure what is perplexing about the grade. The corners on the Vlad are showing obvious signs of white, and the edges are not great either. 
    Also a one-touch is not the most protective way to ship thinner stock cards. They are usually able to move around inside the case, and that can sometimes lead to damage, especially to the edges and surface. The most secure way to ship a card is in a penny sleeve and top loader or card saver.
