On the flip it states it has been "cut" and it grades an Auth, not a numerical grade.
So I see no problem w/ what SGC has done

Default What's the problem

Not sure what the problem is. SGC put on the flip that the piece is cut from a larger item. It did not get a grade only authentic.

All they did was slab an item.


As they used to say Where's the Beef!!!!

Gotta agree with everyone here...SGC should be able to slab anything they want if they put AUTH on it.

So let me get this straight it is not okay for topps to take a Ruth bat or jersey and chop it up into a 1000 pieces and stick it on a card and sell it? But it is perfectly fine for some person to take a full composite and chop it up and get each piece graded and sell it. Maybe it is just me but if SGC would never of offered to grade the pieces then that original composite would be whole like it should and not one big giant puzzle.

They didn't grade it....they deemed it authentic and slabbed it.

SGC did get one thing wrong, this was not a composite that was cut up. It is an accordian style set of photo cards that simply torn at the seams like strip cards and the baltimore shirt company cards. These were made in a way so that kids could seperate them and have a set of cards, unlike a composite photo which were not intended for kids or to be seperated out. These are more "card" like than people are giving them credit for, and there are several known of this wallet of players and this is not ANYTHING like a composite photo that was chopped up. It does not change the fact that some people will disagree that things like this should not be cut up, but it is NOTHING like a chopped up jersey or bat or photo, this is a KNOWN set of cards and no cutting was involved at all, they were simply pulled apart at the seams as was common for this issue.
