SGC Up-charges
Is anyone here aware of SGC applying up-charges beyond their original order? I just got hit with $735 in additional grading fees (on top of the already existing up-charges from the original submission). The cards were submitted at a trade show, in which an SGC representative told me the exact values to list, along with the corresponding up-charges.
Much of the reason I went with SGC is that I was told (from good sources) that once the submission was accepted, SGC would not “hold your cards hostage” for additional money. Their customer service is non-existent… the only phone # they list refers you to an email address in which they never even respond.
Do you think this is a new policy, perhaps brought about by their merger with Collectors/PSA? Hopefully this is not a first glimpse of more corporate changes to get SGC more in alignment with PSA. They say that all good things come to an end, but really hope that’s not the case here. Please LMK if any of you have experienced the same thing from SGC.
Eager to hear others’ experiences… Thanks!
