Agreed change will come no matter what, but I think that by simply adding a green border to the flip this will make thousands of collectors happy. Our old slabs may no longer be uniform with the new, but with the added green border they will at least look close.

The new flip isn't TOO bad but I agree that the current one looks better. I'm also with the group that thinks the new flip would look much better with the green border.

Here's an idea of what the new flip would look like with a simple green border all the way around:

In my opinion, it looks better with the border. Novice collectors identify SGC with the flip. If you change the color scheme, people will notice.

This looks better, but I would make the green border on top slightly thicker to match the style of the old ones.
