One angle that doesn't seem to be considered as much when comparing values of CSG/CGC to PSA is that, for vintage cards (in my opinion and limited experience), you are more likely to get a higher numeric grade from CGC.
So, to buy or sell an identical quality card you should maybe compare the price of a PSA 6 versus a CGC 7...etc. Then you might see some more favorable/equivalent sales comparisons.
And I don't have indisputable evidence that CGC generally grades vintage easier, just a lazy conclusion that I've drawn from casual observation.

If you want a card, you might not get a deal. If you want a deal, you might not get a card.
