Does the TPG reaching out for more $$$ surprise anybody?

Just curious, does a valuation of $7500 trigger a higher grading price?

I still try to figure out why the TPGs charge so much for higher $$ values on cards. Is it to generate a war chest for the future payouts for misgraded cards?

I get the feeling the TPGs would fall back on the subjectivity of grading to weasel their way out of a lawsuit.

Maybe this has something to do with it.

Most likely, this is coming from the collector's buyout. More changes.

Snowman was right! Beckett is crushing it with their fixed fee grading.

Truly, I don't know how they are surviving. I guess the autograph services?

Just say "No!" to the bastiches. That's the answer.

Not if you want to get top $$ for the items.

Well then those top $$ are going to have to come from someone else. If you take out and show me a bunch of plastic slabs, I'll just shake my head and walk away.

But go ahead and finance SGC's business if you want. It's your choice.

To be fair, Beckett graded about 46x as many cards this month as I did.

The quoted message is from post #6. That data to me is very interesting. In my mind, if a trend begins that indicates MoM and YoY drops for a prolonged period of time, then I'm wondering if that could/might be associated with prices in the hobby coming down precipitously.
