Grading T202 End Panels: SGC or PSA?

[boysblue]

Will either SGC or PSA grade T202 Hassan end panels? And if so, will they assign a numerical grade or simply label them as being Authentic? I cannot find any graded end panels on eBay, so I think it is likely that neither company grade these, but perhaps somebody in the community knows for sure.

Thank you!

Neither will grade these as far as im concerned. I was wondering about csg?

Neither would or should grade them.

I thought I had seen a T202 end panel graded before, and I just spotted this CSG graded one on Ebay:

Being fairly shifted to the negative side of the anti-grading spectrum, my advice is to not bother getting the end panels graded. Yes the panels do have value, but since the two main companies do not grade them, currently a graded version probably wouldn't increase its value much.

End panels are fun to collect. I suggest you approach them as a collectible, not investment. Needless to say, the shown T202 end panels will not be headed to CSG.

Just spotted this completed raw T202 end panel auction on Ebay. $1800! Are people nuts, or was this auction just shilltastic, with only two bidders and total of 14 bids?

If not shilled, boy howdy how stupid some of us have become.

Here is what is on eBay right now. The asking prices for these separated panels is more than I paid for complete t202s. Seems incredibly effing stupid, but perhaps just another example of how out of touch I am.
