If I remember right, the cards will be graded by A.I., then go to a human - for final analysis. So, they get ya for the final step of the grading process, the "eye balling" of each card. Has to be, at least by a small part, overseen by humans. Any way you shake it out, the process is going to be a lot more speedy. I expect the final viewing by humans to be just a formality, and pretty much overlooked in time.

*With around 25 of the X mini's still out there...I'm betting that the one graded 10 won't be the only one out there. There's still a good chance a couple more could come in a 10....which is why that card was for sale for such a long time. The owner has that in the back of his mind constantly.


* Deal on a goldie:

Agree a few more 10's could show up, never know.  I think the goldie might be a little high, maybe just under 10k might move it.

Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA) has announced that it has acquired Genamint, Inc., a software company that will help improve and scale the process by which PSA handles trading card submissions. Genamint technology analyzes each trading card in real-time and is able to provide diagnostics, measurements, and detect alterations or other changes made to a card’s surface in an effort to assist human graders. It will also provide unique card identification – or “card fingerprinting” – by identifying the exact card in order to track provenance, resubmissions, condition changes and other attributes over time.

Yeah it is only a matter of time that human eyes won't be used at all.  Humans are imperfect and grading can be done fairly easily by AI if the right amount of smart people create the technology.  Machines are taking over the world!! Lol.  I view this as a good thing as grades will be more true and consistent.  Just wonder what will happen to views on pre and post AI grading.

i wonder if there'll be a premium  on the ones seen by a human eyeball.  maybe they can give this a nickname like "human graded" or "BB" for before bots.



The spread right now between an ungraded card vs. PSA 10 is off the charts on most cards. 

I think Mr Stacey was just referencing the way it was graded.  Was it graded by human or by machine.  Agreed raw versus a gem 10er is always a wide difference. 

Personally I do think they will be difference in prices a human graded 10 versus a machine graded 10.  Just don't know which way Smiley

The PSA 10 is the hottest ticket in town right now.  The minimum cost to grade a card is 300.00 plus insurance for a chance at a PSA 10.  Not good odds.  The cost to pull a x mini black, cheaper to just buy the card in my opinion.  Any #83 insert card graded PSA 10 is going to the moon no doubt.

I think that's to keep competitive with the A. I. grading services popping up. PSA has a very close eye on them, and is aware that the market is changing, and it's in their best interest to change with it....or lose business. Streamlining their process should have been a top priority for years...A. I. is forcing their hand. Thank God!!! Maybe they'll staff-up as well, and we won't have to wait a year or more for our cards to come home.  Sad

*I see some serious benefits from all of this. May be some draw backs at first too....time will tell.

You cannot. Unless the woods exist, which i doubt.

I think they exist for sure somewhere and who knows I might find it, I have a close friend I would give it to for sure.  Always on the lookout.

Since anyone who has a 10 grade card has been getting a tighter grip on them...exactly how is a new person to this realm, supposed to get any decent cards? They kinda have to get the raw cards and hope for the best.  Undecided   I, for one, feel badly for the gals and guys who are late to the party, but there are still a lot of very nice cards out there. Raw cards. Realistically, that's the route they have to go, there's little to no choice.
