martyRunscott, I stated that I do not have the power to change the market, not the collecting world. If the market changes, I am there. I do not care.
Jay, I have reread your request for additional examples. I did not see a request for Derek Grady's cards only. How can you tell that Mr. Grady did not grade any of these cards. Is there a chance that any of these were graded by him? I do not know how to tell, please enlighten. Is there a chance that the head grader gave different instructions to Mr. Grady than he did to the other graders? How does that stand to the consistency statement?
I do not want to spend the time, nor care to, to go back and see who stated that SGC is the strictest. Maybe they could have two different holders, one one for the cards that they are consistent with, and one that they do not care. Maybe the cards should state who graded them. I bought a shirt that had the name of the inspector in the pocket.
The most discouraging feature in this board is how personal some take comments, and the effort that is taken to prove a point. A fun part is to see how easy it is to start a fight. I observe. If I had even 10% of my customers requesting SGC, I would carry some of their product. I do not deal in the era that many of you do. I had three Tango Egg cards of the same player, one SGC 84, and two PSA 5. They looked identical. The PSA cards were 5 for centering in my mind. They sold on eBay for about the same money.
