Roy, I don't want to sound cynical, but I think the set registry is a way for SGC to chase the almighty dollar... after all, if you want your "set" to be registered, all of the cards in it have to be graded by SGC. So if I want to put together some type of registered set, I'm going to have to spend a nice chunk of change on grading fees.
I certainly agree with Roy in one respect - this really doesn't affect me (at least not directly), so if others want to do it more power to them. However, I'm at a complete loss as to the point of having a "registered" set. If you've got a whole set graded by SGC, how is it better if it's registered?
