I do think PSA will eventually fold SGC, like over the next 5 years. By doing so they will eliminate the vintage competition (and some of their modern competition). Vintage and Pre-War collectors won’t have a choice, because who actually submits vintage to Beckett or CGC? They’ll have to submit to PSA. And think of all the money they could potentially make with all the collectors who will cross their old defunct SGC slabs to PSA. And I’m sure they paid a good chuck of change for SGC. Best way to make that money back unfortunately is cut payroll at SGC, sell the parts, and fold the company.
To me it makes little to no sense for them to keep SGC operating. It does for the short term, but not in 5+ years.
Let’s hope I’m wrong though. Competition is good for everyone, and you can’t beat the customer service at SGC (at least compared to PSA). I really hope this acquisition doesn’t go through. What’s next, Fanatics acquiring PSA?
