Bust Out Your Tuxedos!! SGC Graded Card Reveal

Hi Bill. Nice cards! Just my opinion of course, but all of those grades given by Sgc look pretty accurate to me.

And who says they got the Collins right the first time you'd sent it in. I've seen many 1's in both Psa and Sgc slabs that display like that Collins.

Those are my thoughts at first glance.

Thanks Tony! I'm not broke up about the Chesbro as given today's standards is probably in line...hoped for better. I wish with the Collins they would have just graded it the first time I sent it in and not gave it back to me unholdered.

BTW, looked at your Portrait collection and my jaw dropped. What a great array of cards, just beautiful! Slowly I hope to upgrade mine as things go along.

Thanks Bill, much appreciated!

At times I feel collectors like us could probably grade more consistent than any of these third party dudes.

I had a small 2 card that was received on March 15th and graded March 30th. I knew they wouldn't grade high but am happy with the quick turnaround as I just wanted them slabbed.

Here are a couple of my recently acquired tuxedos.

Most buyers believe SGC graded cards sell nearly half price versus PSA. As both a collector an seller, I'm still not brain washed, although many buyers are.

IMO those cards for your collections in SGC holders are beautiful!

Thanks. I love the 61 Fleer set. It's my absolute favorite set ever made. I have the full set, all well-centered, which is pretty much the only thing I care about (other than no creases or registration issues).

Ya, when I saw this one up for auction, the price didn't even matter. I was determined to win it at almost any cost just because of how rare it is to see a card like this slabbed in a 2.5 holder. The reason for the grade is paper loss on the back. Which reminds me... I seem to recall seeing a thread somewhere around here where people were discussing the highest possible grade a card could receive if it has paper loss on back, but I couldn't find it. If anyone knows which thread I'm referring to, please let me know. I think this is probably on the upper end of that expectation for cards with paper loss.

Here's the back of the Elgin Baylor RC.

I agree, that seems like a pretty harsh grade on the Baylor card. But is that a bit of paper loss on his face?

Head scratcher. Should be (expected) an 8. This one going up for sale. Always loved the 1964 Brock.
