Posted By: <b>Dave</b><p>How come SGC Will grade some cards that show trimming or color added as AUTH. Then some cards they just return with nothing done but the area circled where the problem is. There is an E92 Dockman from the Nagy Collection on ebay that is slabbed and listed as AUTH. To me it looks like it was trimmed on the top and done very badly. I have a card I sent to be graded and it was returned in a plastic sleeve with the suspected area circled. I can't see anything visually or under a black light. My collection is all slabbed and all my cards are displayed for everyone to see and I'm not afraid for them to be touched. They also have a list of items they don't slab. I checked the list. Then I emailed them my list and all was fine. When I get my cards back my PX7's didn't get done because they say they don't do them. Also my S74 White Silk with the back still attached wasn't done. They said they don't do them either. How about their list and my email. Do they bother to check any of that? That was all extra cost for nothing. The extra declared value for insurance the number of cards sent put me in a higher shipping bracket. I'm not a Happy Camper.<br />Anyone else have similar problems?<br />Dave

Posted By: <b>andy becker</b><p>in my last sgc order i asked for a rare card to be slabbed authentic. the card is not trimmed. but it did have a stain that someone tried to remove, did not, and in the process caused some paper loss.<br />not sure why they wouldn't authenticate it.<br />i also wish they would be consistant and slab all s74's with the paper backing still attached.<br />they have graded at least one s74, maybe more.....but for some reason they will not continue. <img src="/images/sad.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>Dave</b><p>Thank you<br />My S74 is clean and the back is clean and fully intact. I also have some colored Silks that don't come with a paper backing. These aren't all frayed and the brand is on the front as it's supposed to be. I may have to resort to PSA. I like the SGC mount alot more than the plain PSA. I think it's the black insert that makes the item standout.<br />Dave

Posted By: <b>andy becker</b><p>i don't think psa will grade them either.

Posted By: <b>joe maples</b><p>I also have S74's I would like graded, SGC told me they don't grade them. I went to their site and this is what is there:<br /><br />"1909-10 S74 Silks White or Colored With Backings Detached" <br /><br />English class, does this mean they don't grade :<br /><br />1 - (S74) Silks White (all - backs or no backs)<br /><br />2 - (S74) Colored with backings detached. I have not seen any colored silks with backs attached. <br /><br />3 - OR "1909-10 S74 Silks White or Colored With Backings Detached". <br /><br />I think it is #1 if there is a backing or if there is no backing and #2 which means they don't grade any S74 silks. <br /><br />Hope this is not to confusing.<br /><br />Joe<br /><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Dave</b><p>To me it means if the backing is detached they won't grade it. That is why I didn't send any colored Silks. They never said anything about my list when I sent it in an Email.<br />Dave
