This is actually why I stopped collecting graded cards. It's just a money grab from PSA. Sure, the label looks better but my OCD wouldn't allow me to have different labels and it's just too much headache.

I'd rather use the money on more cards.

For collecting you don't need graded cards, but for selling and trading especially high end this is a good thing. Now we don't have to worry as much about fakes.

Yup no disagreement there. I use PSA for selling off non PC. For anyone that collects PSA cards this news could be annoying. Just glad I don't anymore

Ironically my OCD doesn't kick in with this. The label isn't different enough that it bothers me. Give me the extra protection and the flip that is 90% the same. The security stuff, where I'd have to move the case at different angles, surprisingly I'm indifferent about as far as my PC

I'm game for anything that makes it more difficult for scumbugs to put fakes in the market.

Hopefully my 100ish cards at PSA right now get the new label!

Why is it so hard for grading companies to put the serial numbering on the label?

The label looks nice. Now if they would actually take measures to make the slabs more durable that would be great.

Psa... Never get cheated

I've heard how annoying bgs is with their different color labels are. I guess this is ok though.

It looks good, but I wish they'd stop changing every 18-24 months.... can't they just get it right?

Agreed. Unfortunately it creates the issue of graded fakes and so on...
