Default You Grade Em

Posted By: Frank B

Thanks to all who graded. I asked because when going through
some cards and sorting by grade several did not look right
especially when lined up vs other cards a grade or two higher
or lower. I pulled some I thought I should crack out and send back
in and Davis and Steinfeldt were two of them. I examined them
under magnification and Davis has no issues. Steinfeldt has a
wrinkle bottom right hand corner but it's tough to see with the naked
eye. I put Overall and Wilson in as pretty represenative of their
grade although it does look like Wilson is a bit overgraded.

I think the grades given thus far are not going
to change a whole lot if we keep going so here are
the results of the poll:

DAVIS - avg grade SGC60/5.0

OVERALL - avg grade SGC 40/3.0

STEINFELDT - avg grade SGC50+/4.4

WILSON - avg grade SGC30+/2.1

The consensus was Overall got exactly what he deserved
and that Wilson received a break. Not one person thought
Steinfeldt or Davis deserved the low grade SGC gave it
and almost all thought it wasn't even close.
Noone graded Wilson better than any of the other three
and noone gave Overall a higher mark than Davis or Steinfeldt.
Across the board it was felt that Davis and Steinfelt were
the superior cards. That's what I thought as well and I'll
be sending them in raw somewhere for a new grade.
I'll put the new grades up when I get them back.

The actual grades given by SGC were:

DAVIS - 20/1.5

OVERALL - 40/3

STEINFELDT - 20/1.5

WILSON - 40/3
