Awake?
I wasn’t sure exactly what to think of this announcement, but I was pleased that something is happening at SGC.
Anything at all, even... This new service doesn’t do much for me, but maybe they woke up enough to realize that they are in the card business and should do something besides broadcast a “coming soon” splash screen for 12 months.

Sounds like a great idea. I know others and myself have commented that grading companies should at least keep scans of higher dollar cards to compare to those listed for sale. Even before the current scandal, to guard against fakes and cards that were cracked and replaced with lower quality or altered cards.
I would find the digital images useful when posting cards for sale here or elsewhere. And they may even help SGC identify cards that they've already graded if they come back in after being cracked out and altered. Seems like a step in the right direction.

If SGC is going to publish or have access to images of submitted cards, then that's a pretty good idea.
What's sad is that this is an evolution in grading that probably should have been instituted LONG ago. IMO this is great for vintage cards but can you imagine the number of pictures of graded rookie cards they'll have to post. Card after card after card of the same thing. That would be a memory hogging nightmare to keep up with.

I think this is a great ideas. It gives the collecting community an archive of the cards that pass through grading, gives any seller that submits to SGC an professional, high quality scan for many purposes, and helps SGC maintain a quality control database.
Great move in a positive direction.
