Thoughts on Third Party Graders?
As a new/novice collector, it seems there's a tremendous wealth of knowledge held by the folks here on these forums. I would like to know your thoughts on third party graders.
PSA seems to be the largest/most desirable grader, especially with consideration to resale value. Is this assessment true?
SGC seems to rank 2nd most popular but I've read in an article or two that they are even better than PSA with regard to pre-war vintage cards.
BVG seems to be a distant 3rd especially with regard to resale value.
I'm basing my assessments from the statistics at vintagecardprices.com that I've seen.
Why would you desire a PSA versus an SGC versus a BVG graded card? Is it mostly just personal preference? Dependent on the era? Dependent on if you plan to sale the card in the future?
