Which do you prefer Red Flip / Blue Flip PSA

Yanks2151 · Feb 26, 2014

I am new to this PSA auto collecting. I been collecting certain cards and so far all the ones I have been getting are blue. I have my eyes on a card and its a red one. Is one better than the other? Which do you prefer?

From an autograph collecting standpoint I prefer the blue flip unless its a high grade vintage card I don't see the point. Wouldn't stop me from buying a red flip though if that's what was available but it would really come down to the card

I had always heard that you go with a blue flip if the auto is worth more than the card, and a red flip if the card is worth more than the auto because with the red flip, the card also gets graded. More times than not unless it's a big time vintage card, the blue should suffice. But it comes down to personal preference in the end, since both colored flips have the auto certified.

I choose based on the card. If it looks better with blue, I go blue; with red, I go red. Otherwise, from a resale standpoint, a red flip that includes a card grade is best. I couldn't care less about the autograph grade.

I personally don't care about the grade of an autographed card.

You can run into reprints in blue labels. Red flips ensure that the card and not just the autograph has been examined.

Thanks everyone. This is the red flip that made me start the thread:

Haha, tough choice. I prefer the red one myself, having a high graded card adds value.
