Would anyone give credence to a registry site that permitted other TPG grades? What graders would those registry sets accept? PSA, SGC, BVG/BGS, KSA?, ISA? PRO?, all of them?

I can see the SGC and maybe Beckett people getting behind a better registry site, but the PSA people will thumb their nose at sheet cut Gretzky rookies and short BGS Jeter rookies, and not go through all the work to import their cards to another competitor site.

People are loyal to their grading company of choice like smokers are to their brand. PSA is still Marlboro. Or Microsoft. Or Coca Cola. They are the vast majority of the market, and once a company gets to that position, it is rare to give it up.
