Default The curious evolution of SGC grading

A few years ago I acquired a few Turkey Red cards that were in outstanding condition, save for one tiny pinhole at the top. I contacted SGC to inquire about having them graded, and was told that no matter what, if a card had a pinhole it would receive a grade no higher than SGC 1. A couple years later I noticed Turkey Reds in similar condition graded SGC 1.5. And now, this in the recent REA auction. Apparently, it all depends on who is submitting the card. What say ye, SGC?
