You guys claiming that PSA is doing this to extort fail to remember that only like 20 of the thousands of 1993 SP Derek Jeters grade a 10. Since they now sell for $100K each, why isn't every 1993 SP Jeter grading a 10 yet? They could make millions in additional fees!!!
They are doing this because they are now on the hook for additional costs, nothing more, nothing less. It is not unethical. It is unethical to submit $2000+ cards for grading at bulk submission levels hoping that PSA doesn't notice.
Do you want them to charge every person who ever submits a 1986 Fleer Jordan at the tier for a PSA 10? Same with the 1993 SP Jeter? The market determines the market price, not PSA.
