SGC T3 Holder - Problems???

[becollie]

Anyone else having any problems with the bottom seals on T3s SGC holders. I've purchased two T3s during the past year (one during most recent B&L auction) in which the bottom seal on the T3 holder can easily be pulled apart. With just a little pressure (which I have't tried) the entire holder can be cracked apart.

Is this just me?

No Brian, it has happened to me too.

Me 3. I had it reholdered at this year's national.

This particular problem has not happened to me, BUT I have had multiple SGC graded T3s slip under or in front of the black insert. I have a couple T3s I'd like to get reholdered, but I'm waiting for a new holder (which they were apparently working on).

SGC is great on many fronts, and I support their presence in the hobby, but the quality control of the cabinet sized holder is severely lacking. Protection of our old cards is a big reason why many people get their cards graded.

Had a t201 literally fall open a few months back. Saw no evidence of tampering, but what do I know. Looks like it flexed in the mail (or is my naïveté showing?).

The one holder I had peeled right apart without any effort.

Appreciate the quick responses. This is disappointing to hear. I was planning on just reholdering but now looks like best option might be to crossover to PSA.

All my cabinet sized cards in SGC holders seemed to come apart way too easily.

My W600 is barely holding together. Two of the 4 seams are loose.
