PSA is grading 25K cards a DAY. I doubt SGC is even a small fraction of that.

I like SGC, but I don’t see the threat to PSA, nor do I see any synergies in acquiring them. Completely different philosophy. I’ll believe it when I see it

I guess everyone has their price……

this is certainly true.
one thing that SGC might bring to the table is capacity. they are the only grader who solved the bottleneck problem and invested in their own capacity. PSA might be a little worried about losing some business for making people wait a year for cards. If they acquire SGC they can probably cut their backlog in half. SGC has definitely mastered the grading process.

I admittedly haven't done a sophisticated analysis, but neither is this AT&T thinking about buying Sprint, or even PSA as public company needing shareholder approval, it's one very wealthy guy and his partners. If they can take out probably their best competitor for relatively little money by their standards, and acquire badly needed graders in the process, why not do it?

Maybe there will be one registry for all graded cards if enough mergers/buyouts happen. This is one of the main reasons as a collector, I would never grade a card until it’s time to sell.

To me PSA is Arrogant enough to not honor SGC grades. Don’t put it past them.

God I hope this doesn’t happens, Dave Keep The Company Please.

But they make up for it by honoring their own when confronted with proof of alteration.

Neither of them do that.
