If I were SGC, I would BUY this fake and get it off the market!

I always called PSA

Pathetically

Authenticators

but you had some good ones!


I think we had a thread on soaking and crease removal sometime ago.

If someone could include a link to that here, that would be great.


Some approve, some don't

Bottom line is soaking and rolling creases has gone on since the 1960s.

Back the we did that strictly for appearance sake.

Now I realize that is taboo for some of you.

So I guess it would be better for you gents to buy graded cards, that way you at least know they haven't had creases rolled out.

Have a nice weekend everyone!

And again, my apologizes to David, my intention was not to insult him.

I think there was a T206 Wagner graded Nm-Mt by PSA that was trimmed

PSA = Prejudicially Skewed Assessments
SGC = Slippery Gasket Cardholders
BVG = Barely Viable Grader
GAI = Gone And Incompetent

I like SGC only because my kids can handle them without me freaking out and I think they look nice, but I did send in my T206 Summers and it came back ungraded miscut, I sent it back two months later and it got an 80... PS- I sent it back because I measured it left and right, up and down and can say with some certainty that it is NOT miscut nor trimmed, it's not short at all. From no grade to 80 is a huge jump...

I had the same xperience years ago with SGC--went from 'trimmed' to an 84. The card was great, BTW, and not at all tampered with.

[jalex]

Here it is...

I am not ragging on SGC for this by the way... I have no dog in the hunt. I think the card was a millimeter short of standard, maybe, and whoever graded it originally was being overly cautious. It measures a mm or so shorter than some of my sgc graded cards, but it also measures a couple of mm taller than others. At some point it's just subjective. i think it's a beauty. I bought it raw for 30 bucks or so and only had it slabbed for the reasons I mentioned before. I only sent it back because I thought they missed it on this one, but they have pretty much nailed it on my 20 other t206... Anyway, hope the scans show...

Dang!! That makes me wish I had sent in my Gehrig again that they said 'measures short'.....
