What is the opinions here of the PSA Registry?

because I do not slab my cards with PSA, nor do I ever plan to do so. People like me do not use it because we do not collect PSA-encapsulated cards, do not intend to collect PSA encapsulated cards, and actively remove cards from PSA holders. In fact, I typically cross over cards I purchase from PSA holders to SGC holders, for reasons that have been discussed ad nauseum already. I think it is misguided, therefore, to conclude that people who do not use PSA's registry simply haven't tried it. There are so many "advanced" collectors who do not like PSA and therefore will not use the registry that its value as a registry of prewar cards is similar to the pop report's value as a measure of prewar card scarcity: minimal.
