Greg EcklundI may just be lucky so far, but every GAI card I've ever tried to cross to SGC has crossed over at the same grade or in one or two cases a little higher. There have probably been 30-40 of them and all but one was crossed in the holder.
With PSA to SGC it depends on the set - every e90-1 I've crossed has gone at the same grade, but I have also avoided a few PSA 3's with paper loss on the front. Other sets like M101-4/5 and Tattoo Orbits have crossed most of the time, with an exception or two from each set.
The one set I have found PSA very nearly incompetent on are the 1940 Play Balls - an 8 in that set has always crossed for me, but their 6's and 7's are so all over the place that I have had better success with raw Play Balls. I have almost completely stopped buying 1940 PB 6's and 7's unless I can get a high resolution scan of both sides. I sold Jay (and described to him correctly) a PSA 6 Vosmik that had one corner practically rounded - it wasn't a 6 by any reasonable standard.
