It actually looks like a real SGC holder with a fake flip designed to look like the old SGC flips. When they used a scroll on the front of them. Very deceptive.

It is not deceptive at all. SBC predated SGC and they "invented" the grading system that SGC used until recently when they added a few new half grades. As I understand it, Certified Collectibles Group bought SBC and created SGC.

Scott. Thanks for clearing that up. That would certainly explain why it looks so much like an SGC slab. I had never heard of SBC and didn't realize they were a real grading company.

At a minimum, there is a reason that this experienced seller hasn't had the Revelle crossed to PSA or SGC.

Kevin, you are incorrect. Please explain how SGC would have started with the same head grader and same odd grading scale without a business transaction of some sort.
And, for sure, there is a reason that that card is still sitting in an SBC holder. |

i just said that joe merkle was an executive for both companies, that explains the similarity on grades and format of the holders. And no, i am not incorrect....SBC and SGC are not linked by ownership.

Laughing out loud.
What exactly constitutes a "real" grading company? Don't they all give their opinions based on their own self professed ability to do so? Just wondering, Doug |

With regard to SBC, it was imo a reputable grading company, that was just a few years ahead of it's time. The majority of those involved with the company at that time, are/were veteran hobbyists

Although just for record I don't consider all grading companies "real grading companies" either. Some of them are too bad for me to consider them a real grading company. Just my opinion.

A ''Real Grading Company'' is one whose product will 'crossover' to another reputable and well-established grading company at approximately the same level ; also it will have a bunch of numbers and one of those little bar-code thingys.........I bought these from Leon at the National. |
