In regards solely to re-selling a piece, would it be better to request an AUTH designation on a nice looking and expensive T3 that has a tiny pinhole or go with the SGC 10 Poor designation? One of the "problems" I can see with the AUTH, is when a potential buyer wonders why it got AUTH. Is there one problem or several? Which would bring more money, an SGC AUTH or an SGC 10? For more expensive, rarer and less available cards, I think buyers will pay more money to just get the piece; comforted to know it is slabbed/real and grade be damned. I know this most likely won't fly, but what about SGC using a PH qualifier and grading the card higher if it is truly clean or is that too PSA-ish? Many more things to think about.
