SGC has gone to far on these...

[Exhibitman]

Photos, tickets, cuts from strips and other similar issues, all "A" Ok with me. My only quibble is that I don't see a clearly stated policy of what it slabs. I'd like to see an 'official' announcement so I can know whether to waste the postage sending SGC photos and the like for slabbing.

Here's a card I wanted slabbed a skinned N284 that both SGC & PSA wouldn't slab.
If it is authentic, which this is, why not then? Just indicate it on the flip.
The old GAI was happy to take my $$$ to encapsulate it.

Assuming that you tried more than one month ago, why not try SGC now?

Phil, this was about 5 years ago.
Though about a year ago I had some Goodwin Champion Boxers that were skinned
and was told by SGC not even to bother to submit them as they would not be encapsulated.
So "Honest John" Morrill looks fine and protected nicely in the GAI slab,
will probably leave him be.

EDITED TO ADD: why would things be different in SGC's approach from the last month till now?

If all BG's are cut from panels, should they not receive a numerical grade? What's the difference between them and the item that this thread was originally about?

A few years back SGC refused to slab a T206 with paper glued to the back as Authentic. I don't know if their policy has changed.

Well, they never encapsuated tickets or photos before last month, why not give it a try? Maybe some things have changed with JSA in the picture now.
