T202 Cross Over Results

These results are why I only sub to PSA and never to SGC. The latter's grading standards, particularly for o/c cards, fall far short of those for PSA. If you like how your cards appear in a SGC slab, keep on subbing to them. But, if you prefer to attach value to your cards - whether to keep or sell - sub to PSA. And no, JO isn't any relation.

I respectfully disagree with your conclusion on value. PSA will get higher prices all else being equal on registry focused sets but increasingly buyers are basing their decisions on a vintage card's eye appeal regardless of grade or SGC vs. PSA. Also, I think SGC has gotten tougher on centering over the last year. I'm glad to see both trends taking place.
