Default Smr and old judge

I think smr serves as a good guide for many sets, but 19th century it is not. My problem is they claim they do evaluations of all the evidence and come up with what are realistic selling prices.

if I never see any of their smr high grades selling for that price at realized prices at auctions, then where is that data coming from? That is an issue of credibility. Why even have the list if those prices do not exist in any real transactions? I use Vintage card prices and check auctions not in those prices as well as dealer quotes to get a real price. Smr needs some real changes in how they do 19th century prices estimates.
