Yes, there is...
If collectors of vintage sportscards would just have the balls to stop their incessant complaining and actually boycott them, it would eventually turn them into a Pokeman Grading Company. That's where the vast majority of PSA's business is right now, anyway.
Boycotting PSA would open the door for a better/cheaper TPG alternative to enter the market for vintage cards. Perhaps one that offers UV slabs, actual customer service and no crumpled baggies in their arsenal.
Most collectors that have given CGC a try seem very satisfied. But the flipper/dealer side of the business (not hobby) have no sanctity for vintage cards and only have PSA dollar signs in their eyes.
"Greed may be good" in some cases, but in this hobby it's a cancer.
