Default Definitely the most surprising/unexpected grade I've ever gotten

Look at the card. Now look at the centering grade 😂

This card is so off-center that it has parts of 4 different cards on it, but somehow got a 10 on centering lmao I originally submitted this as a fun experiment to see how bad the centering grade would be. Never would've imagined that the best subgrade would be the centering

Haha would love to see other funny/unexpected grades if anyone has others!

Guessing it was a 1 mis-entered as a 10, but even that would be horrid quality control.

Exactly right. People make mistakes. And honestly, the card is so hideous it’s hard to tell the centering.

People make mistakes? So that's what you call these under/over graded cardboard? Grading is the biggest scam after putting value to a card.

They were assuming it was a new Flux insert and graded the centering accordingly.

I give it a GG 9.5 - creative cut

Probably had auto-fill on and when they hit "1" it immediately filled it in as a 10 before they hit TAB to enter the next sub-grade.

They played a joke back on you for trying to grade such a clustermuck of a card. They have a sense of humor.

When grading gets cheap, you should do a crossover at PSA with a minimum grade of 9. It will surely brighten up the day of one of the graders.

Holy smokes that is bad. I've seen some horrendously centered PSA-10's, but this BGS one has to move to the top of the list. Yikes.
