Joe Orlando, the president and chief executive of Collectors Universe, said in March that its PSA Authentication and Grading Services division was receiving more cards every five days than it used to receive over three months, and that it had doubled the size of its staff and headquarters. That has led to madness at the grading agencies. But now that cards once worth $10 are worth $20, and cards once worth $20 are now worth $50, there’s suddenly an enormous demand among collectors who wouldn’t have bothered spending about $10 to get a card graded in the past, he said. Getting cards graded - a necessary step in fetching the highest prices on markets like eBay - once made sense for mostly just the rarest of cards.
