Default Grading Co Experiences as of lately

I have a bunch of cards I want to get graded...and I'm wondering how peoples' experiences have been lately re. PSA and SGC.

It seems SGC has somewhat relaxed their grading standards to more mirror those of PSA in some ways...while a ways back there were major issues w/PSA's turn around time?!

Any experiences recently...good or bad!?

Turned some cards in at The Philly Show to PSA and had them back within 2 months.

Expecting my 10/10/10 special submission of April 22 from SGC today. That's a 30 day turnaround for a ten business day submission.

Grades seem harsh. Nice 1911 Zeenut expected to be at least an 80 is coming in with a 35. Can't see SGC relaxing at all.

Fortunately I don't have any more cards to get graded nor do I expect to in the near future. Just too much of a crapshoot.

EDIT: just received cards. Not only is my Zeenut under graded its in the wrong sized holder. WTH!

Agree with Steve above. Subs are taking a bit longer at SGC (still a lot quicker than PSA) as they are really busy right now. If SGC has relaxed their grading standards, I sure haven't seen it.

I use SGC exclusively and i would say they have NOT relaxed their standards. I usually wait until one of the monthly specials meets my needs and it is about a 30 day turn around on a 10 day offer. I did get a card back and the label was wrong. I called them and they were happy to re-slab with no attitude. I still think they are the best holders visually for pre-ward cards and bowmans.

I feel for sgc their grading has becomes very inconsistent in the last few years. I look at both them and psa as more of a holdering service than graders at this point

Think the graders are overloaded with every dealer getting ready for the National just around the corner.
