Well, they obviously aren't prepared for growth, or they wouldn't be taking months and months to simply grade cards.

My submission was shipped and returned to me within 20 business days. Not sure where you got "months and months" from.

Agree 100% with Rhett on the flips. 3 different size fonts and a hexagon to boot all on a small rectangle. Looks like someone grabbed one of my kids stencils.

Same here. Bought a 1928 Yuengling Cobb at the National on Sunday (8/5). Dropped it off at the SGC booth about 15 minutes later. Got it back by the end of the month. Under 20 BDs. And for only $23 for grading AND shipping.

I wish SGC well but I can’t be the only one that hates the new flips. The writing on the left is too busy & small and the # grade on the right is WAY too big, it just looks unbalanced and a bit cheap to me. I’m probably in the minority and that is fine but I am not a fan.

Rhett. I hate the size of the grade too. Way too large. I hope they go back to the older flip on the numeral size.

For a seller at a show, the larger number grades are easier to see if customers are casually passing by your table.

PSA is taking months on end. BGS is taking a year to grade cards. Ironically, those are the ones getting the money. You do the math.

I also agree with Rhett, but I do like the change from green to black.

I agree. The grade is a few fonts too large for my taste. Maybe it’ll grow on me, but for now it’s too distracting.

When I saw the large fonts in a row of holders, today, I kind of liked it!!
