the fairly poor grading of vintage cards in general, as i see it. i recently sent 10 bvg's i had, individually purchased and others also sent to bvg by myself before i knew better, to sgc for crossover.....1 crossed at the same grade, several were a full grade lower, 1 was even two grades lower. i later did some research on the teams at bvg vs. sgc and the knowledge and careers of the sgc graders were much more impressive to me, other than Andy Broome at BVG who is solid. when i compare some of my bvg cards to sgc cards with the same grade its night and day which card is better, SGC. I dont think that means SGC is harder on grading, simply more accurate. BVG seems to let softer corners and not so clean surfaces get higher grades they just dont deserve. My opinions of course.
