Why do different grading companies' grades have to be the same? Why do their criterion have to be the same. Why does a SGC 3 have to be equal to a PSA 3? If a SGC 4 = a PSA 3, how does that make one better than the other and not merely different? If SGC grading remained the same but changed their numbers from -5 to 4 would that suddenly make them better? (Answer: Of course not).

There's this sudden fetish over perfect centering? Is it just that: the latest thing? I assume many of you have seen the 'perfectly centered' '52 Topps Mantle in the current Lelands auction. The title and description are no doubt a tongue-in-cheek in this perfectly centered fetish that has swept the land. (For those who have not seen it, the card is pounded to pemmican and graded Auth but has perfect centering).
