I’ve felt like we, as a hobby, are playing right into Collectors hands. People are jumping ship on SGC so demand is dropping. Soon, Collectors will be able to say, we tried to keep SGC open but the demand just in any there and they will shut them down completely. If people who like SGC would just keep on using them maybe Collectors would actually keep them as a “Boutique” option. SGC has really always been a “Boutique” grader if you think about it. They’ve always specialized in vintage but dabbled in modern. We are headed down the whole self fulfilled prophecy territory of SGC’s demise to me.
