scg vs. psa ?

[e107collector]

I really don't like PSA holders.

All of my pre war cards are graded by SGC. I like the way they look with the custom black insert in each slab. Quite a few other board members would agree with this statement.

I only have 1 card graded by PSA - 1951 Bowman Mantle.

Thanks,

I only submit to SGC and I collect post war cards. While I am not a seller I prefer the SGC holder by far to PSA's as it protects the card and it doen't bounce around I really don't get the popularity of PSA they have horrible customer service and take months to grade cards then you have to play the crack and resub game. But what an intelligent business decision it was coming up with the half point scale, I wonder how much they made off those regrades and the crack/resubs those generated.

But ask Jim Crandall about his original reaction to the 1/2 pt bump scale.

He came around once they cut him a deal on the price per card, explained the policy that only allowed the grades to go up. not down, and asked him to calculate how much more an 8.5 was worth vs. an 8.
