SGC to PSA Crossover Submission Results

[cmcclelland]

Some cards did receive a higher grade than my minimum crossover grade, but none received a higher grade than the original SGC grade. I should add that I did not feel that any of the cards were worthy of a higher grade than SGC had already assigned them, and I felt that those where I assigned a lower minimum grade for crossing could fairly be assessed that grade if submitted raw. So, the only cards I was disappointed with were the 13 that did not cross, as I felt they were worthy of crossing over at the assigned grade. Also, you pay the grading fee whether it crosses or not.

In the end, I think I will come out ahead in terms of the amount I net on selling these now that they are in the new PSA holders. I think most buyers value the new PSA holders a bit higher due to the perceived new stricter PSA standards (same with the new SGC holders). In addition, I think that especially for mid-grade commons (like a lot of these are) PSA cards not only sell for a higher price, but are much easier to sell. This is probably due in large part to the popularity of the PSA set registry.
