If you submit it enough it will probably get the grade you want. I have heard it works fairly well.

You mean submit more than once?

Crack and submit over and over and over. Eventually they will give you the grade you want. I hear it's an industry in and of itself.

That's what the coin industry turned into 15 years ago. Some high dollar coins get submitted 20-30-40 times for a 1 point bump.

They even have consulting services to evaluate collections for upgrades.

Not to mention, auction houses will also evaluate high dollar coins and have consigners resubmit to maximize profits for everyone.

Not to be dumb, but if you submit an SGC "8" to PSA can you say you will take no less than an 8, or can they ship back to you as a 6 to 7?

yeah you can request a minimum grade for it to be slabbed by PSA when submitting an SGC card

Greg,

Like Jake said, if you do send it in the SGC holder, you MUST tell them min 8 and also spell it out in your comments: "Do not break this out unless it grades a PSA 8 or higher"

This would give me peace of mind. If you do this however, be prepared to get your SGC card back. IMO.

Peace, Mike

PS Actually since this is bothering you so much, why not just sell me the card and be done with it!?!?!?

Yes it is a PSA thing. Doesn't work with SGC because they are too consistent with their grades.

[GregMitch34]

Leon, are you saying that if you submit in the SGC case without cracking it out there is no chance they will match it?

No, I am only saying that at the high end of registry games it is a crack and resubmit industry and the TPG's do well. I have heard TPG's are much more critical of cards in competitors holders so they are normally cracked out when resubmitted. I have only resubmitted around a handful of cards as I don't play the registry game. That being said if someone gets some low pop number to be lower pop with a higher grade, they have probably made a lot of money. Again, not a game I play but there are those that do. It doesn't bother me. Grading is subjective. It is what it is.

I've almost never done myself and always just looking for SAME grade not upgrade when going SGC to PSA. As you know, increasingly--didn't seem to be such a big deal before--there's big gap in value, unfortunately, between PSA and SGC on many cards...

if that's holds to be true in the difference in value..i just don't see how sgc will survive..people sell their cards eventually..if they are getting 2x more value on the psa card fo the same grade of the sgc...and people like you try to cross over....I just don't see all this arguing about sgc being sustainable over time that I get here on this board...cracker jacks are prewar..and everyone keeps telling me sgc is better for prewar yet this thread is evidence that prewar is a threat against sgc as well in favor of psa.......maybe for the less than 100 dollar cards nobody cares about the holder and I not really addressing those cards..

even if not in the flip or registry game I just don't see how this discrepancy in price can be ignored....
