Leon, that depends. How have you priced the card? Is it really G or is it VG? Have you already priced it at a VG (or even a VG/EX) price? Raw is a gamble for the seller and the buyer both. If the card is a $200 in SGC 30 and $350 in SGC 40 and I have priced it at $265, I lose as a seller if it comes back at the lower grade and win if it comes back at the higher grade.

So to me, the bottom line is are you accurately grading your cards according to SGC's standards or are you fudging a little on the descriptions? But to answer your question, there are many, including me, who will pay more for the assurance that an SGC slab offers.
