Good to hear that there's nothing that should concern me regarding the grading companies. All I need is consistency across my collection for display purposes, so as long as there are no signs that SGC is about to flop I'll just stick with them.

For all their warts, like any TPG'er, I prefer SGC for my prewar collection. If I plan on reselling then the quality of the card always takes precedence regardless of the holder, except the stinkers like PRO if they still exist.
PSA still rules because of set registry and pop counts. IF SGC can get their act together on these key measurements then I think the price gap will shrink over time.
