SGC Question

[Snapolit1]

Has anyone resubmitted a card to SGC with a nice grade (e.g., 80) and gotten a bump up?

Yes, I have submitted a few things that got a small bump up including a T205 cobb in a 70 holder that went to an 80....I know I have had a few others too. My success rate is a bit less than half overall.

Thanks.

SGC seems to be way more consistent in their grading so probably not many cards resubmitted for bumps.

My only experience is receiving the same grade as originally given by SGC. Kinda long read. A Joe DiMaggio was purchased in a SGC slab. That buyer bought it to send to PSA and resell because of the price difference between the slabs. Because of the different ways the 2 companies grade the card got a MC qualifier from PSA. Buyer lost his a$$ on the card because of this. I bought the card and like SGC slabs better so I cracked it out and had it regraded at the 2014 National. It came back with the same SGC grade it originally had.

If it was graded after they were doing half grades, I would think it's unlikely.

Thanks for sharing. While it is only a single point of reference, it's nice to hear about the consistency of the grade.

Too bad is messes with the Pop reports, as now there are three of them between the two companies.
