OK, everybody has different opinions so I'll throw mine in. In general, for vintage I prefer SGC, as I purchase a lot of 6s to 7's, and SGC cards graded at those grades consistently, in my opinion on the cards I look at, are nicer cards than similarly graded PSA versions.
Secondly, I enlarged the pic of the Alcindor, took out my ruler and checked ratio left to right and it is 70/30 with the left side of course being the '30' side.

Does the old SGC holder come into equation for anyone ? Idk maybe they were a little easier on centering back in the day.

It could be worse, they could call a card with paper loss a 5...............

My thoughts exactly. Just like the PSA 7 shown. That is an older graded card and no way, imo, does that receive a 7 today.

If you are referring to the 52 PSA 7 Barney, that was probably graded within the past month. The current sequence is at about "270". If I sent that 52 Barney in, the expectation without qualifiers would be a 4.

Are you sure it just wasn't a reholder? If not, I can't believe that card received a 7 recently, especially with those corners and ink stain.

Personal opinion here, but I actually find it kind of ridiculous that centering is even a factor in grading.
Grading should be about the handling/care of the card over the years, not whether you got lucky enough to get one that was cut well by the manufacturer... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

SGC is fine.
Card is too off center for your taste, so don't buy it. PSA is fine. They make mistakes too. BGS is fine. see above
