What does this SGC card have in common with Bo Derek?

Bob: I just got back 200 Zeenuts from SGC, yes they are hard on these cards, nevertheless I would much rather have the cards in SGC holders than PSA, in fact the half dozen or PSA graded cards all came back at lower grades and deservedly so. Not sure if that was a result of ratteling arround in floating holders or just over grading by PSA. The one Beckett card came back a higher grade - the rest of the cards were raw. Your 10 while not as alluring as Bo when she was a definate 10 is I my opinion not a 10 it does not pass the ratty-ass test. Your card is a nice looking card with technical difficults and should be a 20. 10 shold be for cards that are intact, but look ratty-ass. PSA has this problem with their grading system and I think SGC's 20 should be used to solve the problem at the low end of the scale, before final encapsilation someone should be checking the 10's to be sure that they are ratty-ass. Most of my 10,s seem to pass that test, but there are a few like yours that should be 20's. I did get a few 5's on some 11's and 12's that I bought raw in the $30 to $60 range.

Jim: I'd rather be looking at that Young than Bo, but I am getting old. That is a beautiful card.
