The best feature of the recessed holders is that the gasket doesn't touch the cards if that was ever a concern for anyone.

Excellent. I've got a Brady patch card that's quite thick that I need graded. I'll give them a shot!

I've recently been sending vintage to SGC and prefer them for that anyways. I did just send a Panini cracked ice Joe Burrow card to them because of the turnaround times. I'm a firm believer that SGC will close the gap on PSA for resale because of their customer service and quality. I agree that 30$ a card is pretty steep, but it does limit the sheer number of cards they will receive. People have to think twice about sending them in. In my opinion, we want people to be a little more discretionary in their submissions.

I’m sure if been said her before. The coin collecting community has a saying “buy the coin, not the holder “. This holds true for cards also. You don’t have to date Ginger, Mary-Ann is fine by me and a less expensive date.
