PSA one will tap back, that's not the issue. Both back clean.

SGC - color pops in that holder and registration looks better. PSA (as usual) just looks sloppy

If the scans are representative, the color does look better on the SGC one. That would be my preference. Does it have a surface wrinkle?

Or they are just scanned by the companies at slightly different settings. Color of cards in hand is the same.

Is it just my eyes or does the SGC look trimmed?

We all prefer the opinion of the company that puts higher numbers on our labels. Their opinion is definitely more accurate than the company that puts lower numbers on our labels.

I've been doing this for decades and it's my card which I have examined very closely multiple times. Is there some reason for your skepticism other than you like to be a contrarian?

I've been doing it for decades as well. Appealing to your own authority isn't compelling to me. I've seen many discrepancies in grades like this. When one is a 4 and the other a 9, it is ALWAYS a hidden surface wrinkle that the company that gave it a 9 missed. They don't just give out 4s for no reason. Even if incompetence. It's not like a close call between a 7 and an 8. It's an otherwise mint card that gets a 4. There is something there. I guarantee it.

You can make it personal and call me contrarian all you want. I just call it like I see it.

You know best I am sure. As does SGC.

You think what you want and I'll do the same. But if you think PSA knows best, you are sadly mistaken.

That would be my guess also as Peter has talked smack about PSA way too many times to count over the years.
