Default PSA OR SGC?????

Posted By: jay behrens

Marty, I just realizd the problem with your examples and something that a lot of people do not know about SGC. Vintage cards pass through a different set of graders than do cards from the modern era (post ww2). So far, all the cards you have shown to have been given high grades regardless of centering are all cards from the modern era and graded by other people than Derek Grady and the other graders in the vintage area.

This is a big part of the claim for consistancy for SGC, at least in the vintage cards, becuase every card that goes to SGC for grading passes thru Derek Grady's hands before finally being slabbed. I don't know if this sort of situation is true on the modern card side.
