David SeabornI, for one, am glad to see SGC standing up to this attack in an open way. As a collector of vintage cards for several years now, I have had NO problems with SGC and have found them to be extremely helpful and courteous over the phone, via email, and at show. There are several previous threads in which many others have stated the same thing.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion regarding grading companies and we'll never all agree, but people (especially newbies) should know where that opinion comes from (you may also want to search out previous threads on Steve Verkman, which are on here). I'm just encouraging everyone to get the whole story. As was stated previously, there are many conflicts of interest in the hobby....look at PSA. A quick look at their financial records shows they make more money off of selling cards than grading them. I believe that is a much bigger conflict of interest.
