Default vintage card survey

Posted By: Hal Lewis

With very rare cards ... the POP reports may not be as accurate as possible due to re-submissions, crossovers, etc.

For example, I have several rare "one-of-a-kind" cards that have been graded by PSA. If I were to send them in to SGC for grading because I think they would grade higher and because the holders look nicer...

then I will immediately DOUBLE the entire "reported population" of these cards ... when in reality there is still only ONE such card in existence.

It would greatly DIMINISH the value of my cards if I did this because it would "appear" that there are a few "high grade" examples of each card floating around ... when in reality there is ONLY ONE of each.

I doubt that PSA and SGC would ever agree to work together to "DELETE" cards from their respective POP reports when they are "crossed over" ... but this would be the only solution to my problem.
