Incorrect. They added a new grade, Mint +.
So now they have:
Mint 9 (old 96)
Mint + 9.5 (equivalent to 9.25 in PSA?)
Gem Mint 10 (old 98)
Pristine (no number, old 100)
People are definitely in a wait and see mode with SGC. There is a big time submittter (thousand cards a month type) on Blowout who is really pushing for SGC to become big time, but they botched the roll-out of the new scale online and at the National. And supposedly had very few submissions at both the National and the East Coast National White Plains show.
I personally think they jumped the shark, and this is the beginning of the end. But then, I'm a PSA guy for the most part.
