After years of only sending cards to sgc I think it’s time to start using psa.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thinks the new flips are horrible. I really hope they reconsider this one.

Uh they're scanning each card that's graded and the scan will be available online to anyone who might be purchasing said card later. Granted it's not as important as orange packing tape but it's close.

If they really want to make a move on PSA they need to offer free shipping IMO. Free shipping is the way to hearts and minds.

Buy the holder, not the card.

Exactly! Charge more for the grading fee, but as long as shipping is free everything else is irrelevant!

Doesn’t SGC Prime already offer free shipping?

Does anyone care about cards? It's all about the FLIP.

I think it is important to note that this announcement was not supposed to happen yet so who knows if that is even the final version of the holder

Edit to clarify that I don't mind them. But I wanted to say that all of the info coming out now should be taken with grain of salt because this was not an official announcement.

James is right though. When the flip is that ugly it takes away from the card in the slab. The two need to go well together.

Anything new looks foreign at first. I still think people's eyes will adjust.

I hope you're right Peter, for SGC's sake.
