I dont care how pretty the holder is.
However, as stated, if you have the chance to get a grade higher on your submission with SGC that would increase interest at least in the short term

At the same National an advanced collector I met through the CU board happened to be at the PSA booth trying to get a card from the Black Swamp find bumped from an 8.5 to a 9. No luck so he went back to SGC whom he had discussed it with prior and they did the honors. You are correct that they do get business in this fashion as the person knew that it would garner a higher selling price in the SGC slab as Mint.
