Many collectors feel that PSA and SGC are grading tougher than they used to. This, seems to be particularly true over the past year or two. The head of PSA was asked about this last year at the National, and responded that the grading process has not changed. But, it seems like that may contradict a recent press release from PSA regarding a software system they've purchased and implemented. Meanwhile, SGC is also using technology to assist in their grading process that they didn't use decades ago when they began grading cards. Most collectors encourage the use of technology to improve grading and consistency. Quite frankly, a lack of consistency is one of the biggest complaints I hear from fellow collectors. So, using technology in collaboration with human graders, is probably a good thing. So, is the use of this new technology the reason that so many baseball, basketball, football, and other cards have been getting lower grades than they did in the past? Or, is it the imagination of the collector who overlooks the flaws of their cards? It's an interesting topic, and I feel it's worthy of a discussion/debate.
