I have both PSA and SGC in my collection. But I have leaned more toward PSA after an experience with the SGC holder damaging a 53 Bowman Color Snider that was cracked to sub to PSA. PSA stated it was trimmed but the problem was that the card was apparently a bit over sized or the gasket was too small and it squashed a part of the right edge. Now it looks almost like a bat wing on the top right corner...small, but noticable. So after PSA said it was trimmed, I sent it back to SGC and now SGC is stating evidence of trimming as well. Live and learn.
Keep a very close eye when you buy cards that are in SGC holders that the internal gasket is not so tight that it squashes the edge(s).
I do agree the cards look better in SGC holders.
