Who is handling actual raw cards in their collection? I doubt anyone wants to run the risk of damaging a corner, getting oil from your fingers on it, etc. If I have to view a card through plastic - in some for or another - I’d rather view it through a TPGs plastic. To each their own.

I handle the actual cards occasionally on prewar cards.
Postwar, very little of what I have is even in penny sleeves.

Fedex confirmed that my cards arrived at SGC this morning. SGC confirmed receipt this afternoon.

How novel of a concept. Telling me they got my cards the same day they were delivered!

PSA, Beckett, and the other "wannabees" have alot to learn from SGC. Thank god I've known this the past 20 years!

Peace, Mike

So to repeat my question, what would you do if SGC ceased to exist?

LOL. Appears someone is pretending not to read ya. Can't blame him. Ya brought some bad news, if true.

I wasn't trying to single him out, but since Mike clearly thinks SGC walks on water just wondering what Plan B would be for him just in case this rumored thing does happen.

Rumors. You want my answer based on rumors? Here's a rumor..... They are not going away.

I clearly love SGC. This is true. I have spent alot of money over the years with Beckett, PSA, and SGC because I honestly like the way Beckett sleeves EVERY item and PSA has had its moments. SGC simply rocks and is run by collectors.

This being said..........IF SGC went away which it clearly is NOT..........

I'd probably switch over to PSA but they are not really grading right now so.......

I'd use top loaders! Paint black sharpie around the edges to replicate the tuxedo that I love. Enjoy my gems that way!

Thats it!

I certainly was not dodging the question, just eating~

Peace, Mike

PS This clearly is my best producing post! Almost 25K "hits"! Wowser!

There is some interesting news coming out tomorrow I believe. Not SGC. I personally think that transaction will happen sooner or later.

Currently crossing my pre-war to SGC just in case. Once SGC went away I would write an open letter to the remaining TPGs to offer a black apron for pre-war and support my position on why they are missing a great opportunity. Of course they wouldn't listen out of arrogance and ego cuz they're doing such a great job currently.

Then I would contact some heavy hitters in the hobby and come up with a viable business plan for a boutique pre-war only TPG who's mission statement starts with integrity, customer service, and reputation, add a registry, and market to the incredible pre-war community out there. Steal Andy Broome from CSG who clearly is only interested in modern, truly a waste of his talent, and see what happens...
