For high end SGC cards across the board, they compete with PSA all day. I should know, I pay higher sometimes for SGC cards in similar grades. I compete with others that are figuring this out every day.

The secret is out Bobby. I do enjoy less competition however. lol

To each his own though! All good!

Peace,

I feel the same way about the high end cards. Not every stupid card needs a PSA holder, though many of mine do. Fact is, I'm not giving my cards away just because they are in SGC holders. If they don't want the cards the way they sit, there is always another one around the corner or someone who appreciates the card, not just the holder. Frankly, if anal Eddies don't want my cards because of the "holder" they can go F themselves. You kids build your collection based on your "perceived values" and I'll just enjoy the cards. How's that?:

Chuck,

Good to get that off your chest? I think if that had been on netowrk TV you might have gotten "beeped" a couple times! lol

That made me laugh out loud! Very eloquent! lol, seriously , loved it! Thanks for that! I agree all around!

Peace, Mike

I just tried to submit this morning. Apparently, the prices increased overnight. $25.00 a card is now the cheapest option.

Just like cards, I'm now also priced out of having cards graded! Back to the basics - enjoying raw cards!

[dio]

wow. I got lucky, I just submitted yesterday, going to ship out today

[Oscar_Stanage]

yep, just saw it. I made a submission a few days ago and now they moved up the prices.

and the stated timing is 20 days, and I think that is a real timeline, as evidenced by the experience in this thread.

What?!? Ugh. I was just planning a large sub 2 days ago. There goes that idea. I thought the PSA price increase was a great business opportunity for SGC. IMO, disappearing the $15 grading option was a bad move. That may work out for them short-term, but the chance to secure a large chunk of the grading business, perhaps for the long term, would seem to have been lost. SGC just can't seem to get out of their own way.

The real winner here may very well be CSG. If they can get their slab for vintage figured out, I'm in.

I saw this too, that SGC raised their prices, if they leave them alone, probably would have seen a huge bump in subs, but now, I doubt it. I'm still very interested in CSG.
