|  Crossover Cobb? 
			
			Has anyone had any luck with crossover from SGC to PSA? I recently bought a Cobb (picture below) which is graded SGC 50, but the card is immaculate. I may be biased but I feel the card is undergraded and was thinking of submitting it to PSA to try and get a better grade. If so, I wasnt sure if I should crack it out of the slab and send it to PSA or if I should submit as a crossover to PSA in the SGC slab?  I really value all of your opinions on this. Thanks in advance!

			Conventional wisdom is that PSA has a bias against cards submitted in SGC slabs.  Meanwhile, if you think SGC made a mistake, why not resubmit to SGC?  If they can't bump it, they'll let you now why it warrants the assigned grade.

|  Crack it out 
			
			If you think the card should grade substantially higher you should crack it out.  However you are probably missing some wrinkling/creasing that may only be apparent at the peoper angle.  You should look at it in a room with only one light source to prevent glares and you will probably see the reason for the grade.

			Here is my Cobb graded by PSA for comparison. But, I find that cards graded by PSA are sometimes overgraded. I'm not sure about this one though, you be the Judge. Joe Last edited by jcmtiger; 06-08-2010 at 06:59 AM. Reason: more info |

|  You need.... 
			
			....to call SGC and discuss the grade.  The only way that card gets a 50/4 is with a spider wrinkle somewhere.

			Wrinkle.  Flip it around under a strong light you will see it, I bet.
