    I don't get that response. It's a micrometer off on the back so 8.5 seems perfectly reasonable? The Zamazenta is about as good as you can get. In fact, if I were to suggest which side is off it would be left heavy not right heavy but the longer you stare at it the more equal they look. Both CGC and BGS have allowed the slightest amount of off centered backs even for 10s. I'm not asking for or expecting a 10. I think both of these cards meet the 9.5 standard with flying colors but even a 9 would have kept the overall grade at a 9.5 on both. Here are a few examples of 8.5 for your viewing pleasure: Amazing Rares https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/3768031009/9_0/ (8.5 centering) https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/3790341014/9_0/ (8.5 centering) https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/3756762045/9_0/ (8.5 centering) https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/3768031006/9_0/ (8.5 centering) VMAX https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/3814670001/9_0/ (8.5 centering) https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/3807597001/9_0/ (8.5 centering) https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/3774439022/9_5/ (Scizor 9.0 centering) https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/3757505007/9_0/ (Scizor 9.0 centering) I mean come on. I was under the impression that computers graded the centering and that was supposed to reduce inconsistencies. I feel the opposite has happened.

    Can someone please show me where the centering is off on these 2 cards? These just popped this morning from a sub that I had cherry picked for 10s and I ended up with a single 9.5..... https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/3761582008/ https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/3761582007/ If this is what constitutes an 8.5 for centering these days then I think it is actually impossible to ever get a 10.

    If only that were true. My bulk sub received 11/10 has been scheduled for grading for 3-4 weeks.

    Was yours with subgrades? My bulk (without sub grades) received on 11/10 is still scheduled for grading, I had 2 items in that order with subgrades and those shipped 12/31. Seems kind of crazy that the rest of that order would take another month when subgrades are listed as "same as tier".

    Yikes! Is it a very large bulk no-subs order?

    Bulk no subs: Received 11/10, Scheduled for grading (been in this state for weeks) 46 business days so far.
