Why in the world is PSA not standing behind their prior work? I know, things change, grading evolves, yadda yadda.

It’s all about the money. Sounds very similar to me to a CEO disclaiming the work done by staff, vowing to review and update what has been done...for a price.

JMHO.

Peace out.

I don't know why they don't stand behind prior work. In my opinion, that is where they have done their best work, recently they've been horribly inconsistent.

+1. If they made an error in grading then they should be 100% responsible.
It seems some of the TPG's don't stand behind their grading any longer. Makes one wonder about it. If they don't guarantee their work they must not believe in it.
I would leave the card in question alone. A different holder or grade won't make a difference in value, imo.

I would leave that card alone. With those creases in the card, I have no idea why it got the half point bump that it did. Let some label chaser pay the premium.

If your intention is to sell the card, then you might want to stick with PSA to receive the highest resale value. But you roll the dice on having the grade drop half a point. You know this game, it depends on how the grader feels that day. If you're going to keep it, then why bother with the reholder. If you are a collector that has to have it in a holder and it's not for resale, then send it to SGC, however the grading fee may be higher than the PSA reholder fee and you run the same risk of the grader having a good or bad day.

If it were mine, I'd keep it as is.

Thanks for the replies everyone! I am going to keep it as is in the PSA holder for now. It's for my personal collection and I have no intention of selling so I don't really care if it's PSA or SGC or dinged case or not (although the ding in the case bothers me on occasion).

I just like the rich coloring on the front and back and that it's an off back Cy Young.
