Hello from a newbie

Thanks for the note. I've only been back in the hobby for about 9 months. I had a tremendous collection when I was 11 years old. Sold it for $10K+ in 1989. Now I want my cards back! I have been pretty much exclusively PSA up until now. Since I'm moving to pre-war stuff (and some tasty regionals) from the mainly 60s and 70s stuff I thought I would check things out over here. The feel I have gotten, in my limited time back in the hobby, is that SGC is the way to go for pre-war stuff. GAI is fine with me if the card looks good. That is the key, anyway. For the stuff I'm going to be spending coin on here soon the card itself is more important than the grade or the grader. I'm going to use the grade assignment as a guide only.

Anyway, I'm rambling...
