They are still my pick for grading companies but there is no way a card that looks like this is only a 2 on a scale of 10. Just no way.......regards all..... |

Two creases on an otherwise near mint card is a vg at best. They might have been a little tough, but I can't tell from the scan if the card was ex-mnt or nm but for the creases. |

Nothing personal here but I don't really give a rat's behind about ANY grading system with respect to this kind of situation....if you have a scale of 10 this is not only 20% of a perfect card...that's what I meant.....yes, technically it might be correct but that is my point....I sort of think the whole grading "crap" is flawed sometimes......If I had never heard of a grading company I would say this card in in excellent condition (as a lay person)....regards |

The question is: "Was Derek too tough?" or "Are the new graders too generous?">> |

I recently sent in 11 vintage cards to SGC and I thought 2 were less than what I expected and one was higher than expected the other 8 were the grade I expected. I saw no difference from previous submissions plus the customer service was great as usual. |

Since time immemorial (or at least since I started collecting in 1971) multiple creases = good or vg. I don't think I'm out on a limb on this, either. For example, here is what Beckett said in 1988 in the Baseball Collectibles book: "A 'Minor Defect' would be . . . light crease on back. . . An Excellent card may have minor defects." He also wrote: "A 'Major Defect' would be . . . crease(s). . . a VG card may have one major defect. A Good card may have two or more major defects." |

My guess is that Pete's card will command far over the price a similar 30, because there are more than enough buyers out there buy the card and not the holder, and visually it is a great card compared to most 30's. It would be interesting though to see a comparision of the card sold raw and sold in this state. |
