Now I will state for the record I went to SGC to have cards graded after I cracked from a PSA holder. Unfortunately for me I did not receive higher grades and in one case I received a lower grade than PSA gave the card.
I can guarantee that SGC grades cards much more conservatively than PSA, but leaves me scratching my head as to why PSA is always getting 30% more for sale grade.
This just isn't fair. I'd take an SGC card any day.

Agreed. Unfortunately it is like this with everything in life. Marketing and Branding make up for most of that bump you see.
