Let us know, it should be interesting. I am hoping you are correct. They do give out high grades but they seem to be to others and not me!!

In the future, STAY AWAY FROM BRICKS!!! I understand you want to keep the card protected, but they make Card Savers in all various sizes.

Ended up only getting a 60. While I'm not surprised that it didn't get a 92, I do think it was graded a bit on the low side. There is a little ink mark on the back of the card so maybe that dragged it down?

A 5 coming back from SGC on an otherwise great card is almost always due to a wrinkle or crease. Even those you cant see with naked eye - been there several times and if you look hard enough (magnify) you should find it.
80/20 or better centering, minor rounding or fuzzing of corners, roughness or chipping along edge (no layering), one VERY slight surface or "spider" crease may exist on one side of the card, gloss may be lost from surface with some scratching that does not detract from the aesthetics of the card. Ink/Pencil usually drops the card lower than 60.

If you are curious, most of the time the guys at SGC will walk you through their explanation of the grade if you call. The flaws they identified and the rationale behind it. Beautiful card; enjoy it... |

Not surprised. I have been disappointed more times than happy. Maybe our expectations are too high? I guess that is what makes the true high grade cards so valuable. But it can still suck hoping for a 7-8.5 and getting a 5. Been there done that, more than once.

They are super tough on the 32 Sanella. With the thin paper they wrinkle super easy. I looked at the pop report and there are only 2 graded higher than an SGC 80 out of 191 submitted.

I got the card in today and unfortunately it seems like they did a poor job of cutting out the insert and part of the card was damaged inside the holder
I'm guessing this is what caused the drop in the grade. |

Here is a picture of the damage that it got because of the holder: I believe this is what caused it to get graded a 60.

Pretty sure they are assigned a grade before they are put in the slab so that was not why it received the grade it did.
