I think another way to look at creating a new registry is that it gives the average collector a shot, although momentarily, at seeing their sets higher up in rankings. A 7 average doesn't even break the top 10 in PSA on a 52 Topps set, for instance. What percentage of collectors can afford to build a 52 Topps set with an average of 7?!? In SGC, a 3 average make hang in the top 10 or 20 for several years. Not my thing, but I know a lot of guys care about that. A new SGC registry will give the average Joe a fighting chance, for awhile, and I think for SGC that will bring in an influx of submissions.
