SGC Website

[Ronnie73]

I either heard or read that parts of their new website would be operational June 1st. I'm a PSA guy but I'd sure like to see SGC's website work again. I'd also like to see PSA fix some things they told me they were currently working on 3 years ago. I offered to help for free, they told me that they had it under control. The way I see it, they are both in jeopardy of someone new coming along and doing everything the right way. The problem lately is, when your competition doesn't even try to be better than you, you really have no need to try harder to be better than them. Sometimes I feel they are both dead in the water. I hope things change for the better.

My grandkids will be all grown up by the time SGC gets their stuff together.

June first is a Monday.....

As far as I know Monday is taken as the day things will be updated.

This is all disheartening to hear. I have NEVER had a card graded and I would at least like to get one done so that I know the process and to see if it is worth getting some of my other cards graded.

SGC is my preferred grading company but with the nonsense about not being able to see your card grade on the list (I recently bought an SGC graded card and still cant find the serial number to see if it is on the list and know if it is a legitimate card and grade (I am assuming so since i bought it from a supposedly reputable source).

The card I am thinking about having graded is my first pre-war card I ever bought; a T206 Cobb Bat Off. I have owned the card for 40 years this summer and think it is time to see what the grade might be. But now do not know if I should or even want to.

I would get it slabbed if for nothing else - just to protect it going forward.

I agree.

One can't figure out how to turn record sales into expanding to meet timelines. It's simple business, expand to meet demand. In & Out Burger started in a 10' x 10' building, they've since expanded.

The other can't figure out what label to use and that their lack of a registry (or piss poor registry) is what keeps them looking up at their competition. Or maybe they don't want to lead. If that's the case, I wish they'd pick their niche and stick with it.

Neither issue is new, it's been years.
