For resale value unquestionably PSA. For quicker turnaround and a grade more consistent with what you expect (assuming you have a trained eye and have examined it thoroughly with loupe and black light) go with SGC. Seems like my cards always come back from PSA at least a grade or two lower than what I expected, especially since they’ve gone to the new hologram holders.

I have heard several times over now that PSA seems to be tougher on the grade. That said, would you rather have a card in a, say, PSA 5 slab, or would you rather have the same card in an SGC 80 (6) slab?

I would think twice before using PSA.

I have never sent a card in for grading so take this for what it's worth.
Imo, the tougher, more consistent grading company is SGC. PSA brings bigger dollars when selling, no doubt about it, but their consistency is all over the map. Many times I have seen much better looking cards in SGC slabs that I have in higher graded PSA slabs. With the many shady PSA stories I have read and seen here, I think someday, once people finally start to realize what PSA is all about, SGC will be the go to company.......maybe?

Here is true reality from just a few days ago...I had a T206 Larry Doyle graded SGC 88 and sold it for $825, person got a fantastic card for the value. Beautiful card, looked even nicer than the grade....If it had been a PSA 8, the card would sell for $2000-2200. So here's the dilemma, Submit it to PSA in the SGC case, or grab your balls and crack it and submit it raw? If you submit a high grade T206 SGC encapsulated card, good luck getting anything better than 1 grade less, which is about where this Doyle sold for (PSA 7)...Submit it raw, God only knows how lucky you might get, especially with the uncertainty of graders. But, the odds are way stacked against you. You might get a hungover grader that gives it a grade of A....I hate to say this, but I truly believe it's all about who you know....and dare I say pay....

I would go with SGC for the simple reason that I like their capsules better.
