All previous posts offer very valid points for your consideration. Personally, I prefer SGC for pre-war cards. I've had good experiences with them, I find them to be more consistent than PSA (and tougher on grading), and I prefer the look of their holders for pre-war cards. I prefer PSA for modern cards though. You might want to take a look at Beckett as well. Their cases are the thickest and the toughest to crack, which can add to card protection and tamper-proof security. They also put the card in a sleeve before encapsulating, so some feel that offers additional protection. Finally, Beckett tends to be the toughest on grading out of the three. I have purchased a few Beckett graded cards and they are growing on me. It'll probably come down to which case do you think makes your cards look the best. Good luck!
