Default Card grading question

I have a Tom Seaver rookie card which is in perfect condition in all ways
except the centering. The card is dramtically off center with the top of
the card almost touching the border.

How much would you take off the grade of a card like that?

Depends on teh grader. BGS would be very hard on centering, and the overall
grade may only go about 1-1.5 over that grade. PSA, you could get a 8, even a
9 and get the O/C qualifier.

But if your an amatuer, the card is likely not "perfect in every way except for
centering." Your probably missing other imperfections
