CSG Grading - Is It a Real Option Yet?

I agree. This is not unique to CSG, but it also annoys me that they can't even be bothered to properly set a tobacco card in their slab (as shown in OP's example image). Wouldn't it be a no-brainer to pay attention to this if they want to compete with PSA and SGC?

One of CSG's distinctions is the sub-grades, so I agree those slabs without seem empty.

But the CSG slabs do seem to offer more value to a buyer over the likes of PSA.

I really like the holder being clear.
But... I do not care for them grading vintage. Not sure why but the eye Appeal isn't there with the vintage cards , or really any card that is not a shiny or dark and glossy card.
And that flip, is god awful.
Customer service was pretty good as well.
