will show you two cards, side-by-side, in their catalogue, one graded by GAI, SGC or PSA, and one to which they as sellers have assigned the same grade, unprofessionally. And the one to which they have assigned the grade, as sellers, will have a higher price. In other words, they are saying, "In this case, we feel that OUR ex-mint card is nicer than THEIR ex-mint card." It doesn't happen often, but it happens. It not only gives me more confidence in Shoebox's grading, but in the company in general. If I (were forced, because I couldn't find another that I liked)were to buy a graded card from them, PSA, SGC or GAI, I would also feel more confident in the professional grade, because of this policy of theirs.
