quanbarry u are probably right. as the monetary value escalates we do need stricter and more qualified people looking at the cards, to weed out problem cards.
i would contend however that sgc grading scales was tougher during the grady days and i would put more trust on the old baker psa flips than i do on the current crop of monkeys they have working...just out of personal observations.
josh i agree that there are varying degrees of paperloss and i would not hesitate to call some cards w/paper loss as VG/EX depending on how nice the card is overall with respect to wear/soiling/registration...maybe even EX.
