Umm, that's exactly what the sarcastic title of your thread infers. What do you want SGC to do?

No, they don't. It is not up to the grading company to determine the eye appeal of a card. It's their job to grade the card. The buyer can determine the eye appeal of a card.

This leads to prices not being based solely on the number on the holder which to me is a good thing. The fact is the hobby has decided not all flaws are created equal and these standards have been established over a long period of time.

Edited to add the following question:
Do you think PSA or any other reputable grading company would have graded the 2 T3 Cobbs any differently?
