Default A Glance At Different Sets--Percentage in High Grade

Posted By: JimB

I think that what accounts for PSA's higher % of NM/MT + T206s is simply that they cornered the high-end market on those before SGC was really in the game. Compare the number of high-end registry people collecting T206s in PSA holders to SGC. If you had a high-grade T206 to sell, who would you have grade it. SGC has taken over many of the other pre-war sets, but T206 and probably CJ are dominated by PSA. That may change. It may already be changing for mid-grade sets. And if high-grade SGC T206s continue to bring high prices at auction, it may even change for the high-grade market. But to this point, this explanation makes the most sense to me.
