AndyI use SGC, I like SGC, so I am not bashing them at all, but I was reading their guarantee and thought it was a bit odd...
"SGC guarantees that all cards submitted shall be graded by SGC grading experts in accordance with SGC grading procedures. In the event the original submitter of an SGC card believes that the card has been overgraded with respect to such procedures, the original submitter may resubmit that card to SGC for a review of the assigned grade. THIS RESUBMISSION MUST BE REQUESTED WITHIN 30 DAYS OF RECEIPT FROM SGC."
If you submit a card to them and it grades higher than you expected, or estimated, are you really going to send it back in and tell them you think it deserves a lower grade? I think the call would be a bit odd.."Hi, I had my 1987 Topps Edwin Nunez graded by you and it graded an 88(8), I really thought it should be a 80(6), I'm going to send it back."
Are you covered if you buy a card at a show and they missed a chip on the surface or a small wrinkle if you are not the original submitter?
