PSA IN MEMORIAM
 In Memory Of
As collectors, we have the tendency to get caught up in our hobby, not realizing where our endeavor falls on the list of life's priorities. Every now and then, something happens that quickly reminds us how precious and short life is; how we need to put collecting into proper perspective. It happened to us at PSA recently when we lost one of our own: Joanne Lindsay. Click here to read on.

PSA Q & A
Question:
Why are some variations recognized by PSA and others not?
Answer:
Great question. There are many, many variations, errors and oddities that exist on certain cards but there are only so many that collectors truly care about. As time goes on, we try to watch the market and listen to the feedback from the public to determine what variations are worth noting and what variations are not. Usually, if there is a significant value difference between variations, that is a good indicator as to whether or not most collectors care.
