SGG at the National - Onsite Grading?

[packs]

I know that but every day there are people on the board swimming against that tide only to be in this thread looking for a registry from SGC.

My ocd self, I'd just be happy to have the title of this thread be correctly spelled. It's the little things in life....

And a card in an sgc holder. Could be a 9 in the right hands and still be oversized !

Just one of our many endearing contradictions as a group. And more to the point, just because some of us express a disdain for the concept of a registry and all of its concomitant ills, and do so stridently whenever the mood strikes us, doesn’t mean we are all on that bandwagon.

With regards to how important the registry is/isn't, here's a bit of a snapshot:

Is there something wrong with wanting a registry?

No. But it's kind of the ultimate Lucy Van Pelt with a football proposition with SGC anymore. Not sure why we continue to talk about it.

Since that proposition seems to have been rejected by SGC, what about this idea. If Net54baseball already has this in place, forgive me.

Be that as it may, what if Leon Luckey or someone who knows how to set up something like this, was to create a Net54 Collector's Showcase, whereby members could showcase their collection, parsed by graded cards, which would include ALL TPG, raw cards, and memorabilia. Each member would have his own separate "showcase" to spotlight or show off their cards, or whatever.

I suppose any item that is for sale could have a notation to that effect, with "asking price" or "taking offers".

Each member decides how he / she wishes to organize their collection.

Just an idea, with many bits to be sorted out.

I imagine something like this would fulfill a desire for a collector to show off their collection, whilst receiving recognition (i.e. comments, like PSA's set registry does), as well as offers if the collector wishes to part with that particular item.

Feasible? Crazy? Too much work to set up? Should Net54 get a piece of the action?

As I said, it's just an idea worth mulling over.

Cheers, my fellow collecting warriors. --- Brian Powell
