Default Is SGC the preferred Grader for vintage?

Just wanted to see what the vintage experts here think as you guys will give a true and honest answer.

Is SGC the preferred Grader for vintage? or is PSA still the preferred grader for vintage?

If value is important, PSA is the choice. If turn around time is important, then SGC is the choice.

I use both and actually think SGC is a little tougher on pre 1979 cards than PSA.

SGC for price and turn time for sure. PSA for maximum the return.

I recently submitted 35 cards to SGC. Mostly inexpensive stuff. Perhaps 5 at most were graded right, most were off by 2 grades. Not one card higher than a 6, and a number of these were close to pristine.

The things I like about SGC are:

-The black tuxedo cases are amazingly beautiful and the cards pop on them perfectly.

-The turnaround time on them cant be beat.

The things I like about PSC are:

-The final sales prices on EBAY.
