Grading of T 206 cards
Posted By: Jeff
As I had posted recently, I'm new to the site. I have a huge collection of ungraded NM Topps sets from 1956 on; however, I am just starting to buy T 206 graded cards. I was about to purchase my first graded card on Ebay, a PRO graded card, when I noticed that another card graded by PRO was indicated by the seller to have been trimmed. This was not indicated on the PRO markings/grade. The seller informed me that PRO is notorious for grading trimmed cards and fakes. He also informed me that SGC, GAI and PSA are "safe" to buy from as they will not grade fakes or trimmed cards. Can anyone give me some info on this? Should I just stay with those companies? And if so, what is the consensus on which company overgrades, etc? I'm sure this topic has been discussed ad nauseum on this site but I could really use this info before I drop some serious money. Thanks to all, by the way, for supporting such a great site. |
