Let me begin by saying I really like SGC. However, there are two things I find annoying - the absence of explanations behind the grade, and the inconsistencies. I recently submitted a really nice '64 Topps HOFer. SGC graded it a 4. I cracked it out and immediately resubmitted it to SGC and it came back a 7. That's just plain ridiculous.

+1....There is no way a card should jump 3 grades. SGC should have been apologizng instead of taking more money. Unless you are going for a registry set there isn't a ton of reason to buy high grade instead of high visual appeal.

The 3 originally posted looks like a 5-7 any day of the week.

Great card John, I’d thrilled to own a stunning lower grade example as that

That Greenberg is sharp!

Might be a good candidate to re-submit again, albeit other $15 handed over to SGC...

The classic, "buy the card and not the grade" rings in my head for this Greenberg.

That Greenberg is a killer looking 3 for sure. Here is a card that looks great for the grade.
