  1. Maybe. Some collectors already take that into account. Cards also can have several qualifiers: (OC) Off Center, (ST) Stain, (MK) Mark, such as a pencil mark, (MC) Miscut, (OF) Out Of Focus, and (PD) Print Defect. For cards, they are usually an automatic two grade discount, if you want the Qualifier off. EG, a 9 would be 7 without a qualifier. Or it would be a 9 (OC) if it was off center. I think it might be too late to bring those in to comic grading. I’m guessing there might be a few people that wouldn’t mind having a Miswrap qualifier though. CGC already has some qualifiers obviously, so who knows for sure.
  2. I will also say this. The corners of the two cards you can see in the video are rounded. Off the top of my head I can only think of one sports card like that, at least up to 1992 or so. That was the 1968 Topps game cards. Those were only white though. Unless there were more, and there could be, maybe they are focusing on non sports cards?
  3. The next full grade below NM/MT 8, is NM 7. So, the grade between those two would be 7.5 NM+. PSA didn't use the half grades for a long time, but started to several years ago as so many others did it. SGC even used to use a 100 Point scale, but I don't think they do now.
  4. An 8 is NM/MT, the next grade up is usually NM/MT+, or 8.5. The terms for the numerical grade in card grading are often different than they are for comics.
  5. I think it’s pretty cool that they hired Ben Affleck has a grader.
  6. I’ve been unable to print from PayPal for about a week. When it goes to the page to calculate the fees, it does not populate the recipient’s address. There is an edit button to do it, but clicking it does nothing.
