I use TPG primarily for the authenticity part of it. Then I use my own eyes on grades and what I think looks nice. My collection is dominated by lower grade cards that have nice eye appeal (to me at least). I couldn’t care less about the registries.
I admittedly probably put too much emphasis on the authenticity part. I feel pretty confident I can tell the difference between a real T206 and even a good fake just by a picture. Maybe other issues not so much.
