Default Low grade preference

Posted By: Anson

I know there are a lot of opinions concerning grading organizations (personal preference, best resale, etc). However, I've noticed a trend in regards to low grade stuff. It seems that SGC vintage cards in G-VgEx seem to do better than PSA in many cases.

I'm theorizing that it may have to do with their scale (eg...SGC 40 = VG 3). Is there a psychological aspect where 40 looks better than 3 on the label? Or, could it simply be confidence in SGC's ability to grade cards and screen out reprint cards or cards that have been altered?

Just an observation
