Default GAI vs SGC Market Value

Posted By: Frank Wakefield

Watch eBay for a couple of weeks. T206s would be the easiest to follow. Find some in GAI holders, then look for similar cards in SGC.

I think you'll find that SGC cards sell for more. SGC cards have more bidders. Buyers seem to think that if a card is in a GAI holder there must be some reason it isn't in an SGC or PSA holder, such as maybe it was graded, came back low or A, then it was sent to GAI.

The straightforward answer to your question is SGC.

And that is from someone who doesn't collect slabbed cards, but who occasionally buys a slabbed card only to bust him out. Most cards I've sold that were graded for sale were graded by SGC, they know what they're doing, and buyers know they know.
