So is SGC being slowly killed off? Is that the strategy?

Too many guys have big cards in big holders, I don’t think it’s being killed off. Unless they work out some kind of deal to cross them at the same grade I don’t think the SGC slab is ever going away.

Johnny, I’m not so sure. You would think so… unless those big money cards are already being moved into PSA holders

They could be, but we know how this industry works… A lot of backdoor things happen sometimes for the right people with the right money and the right cards.

Pretty much. If you listen to the recent Ryan Hoge (Pres of PSA) interviews and listen between the lines, it is clear Collectors will not be doing much to support the company. Not sure management at Collectors is too concerned with hobbyists who have big cards in SGC holders and in their defense, not sure they should.

Whatever will make them the most money is what they will do. They are a for-profit business.

I keep thinking about the SGC9.5 '52 Topps Mantle which looks great in the black holder. I hope the owner never has the inclination, or feels forced to, switch it to a PSA slab.

Cards like that and the Highest Selling T206 Wagner are why SGC slabs will never go away or become less valuable.

My thought is no, as PSA doesn't have the equivalent of that grade.

But you never know.....

SGC's -17% is not an indicator of peoples' preferences. It is a contrived number, brought about by the desire and actions of Collectors (the company) to reduce SGC's presence. Collectors (the company) does not care at all about collectors (the public). They care about revenue and profits.

Collectors has halted SGC's presence at virtually all card shows with the exception of the National... in which they placed SGC at the back corner of the room. I know many people who would submit to SGC at card shows in order to mitigate the chances of cards being lost or damaged in the mail, and eliminate the cost of shipping/insuring them.

Even at the Pokemon-centric Front Row Card Shows here in the PNW (which feature 90% modern cards), the lines for SGC submission were very long. Now they are all gone, thanks to a corporate monopoly who despises and bites the hand that feeds them.
