What is the market share for PSA, SGC, Beckett, et al.?
Worst case is that there's a small discount on the SGC slab vs PSA because of the registry aspect of collecting. In any case, I think we've seen the incompetence for all TPGs. Subjectivity is all over the place.
It's been mentioned before, there should be AI grading when it comes to centering, corner wear, creasing, etc. The only bad thing is that when people have higher graded cards that get smashed a few grades, then there's going to be some unhappy people. Could you imagine having a PSA 5 card that is shot down to a PSA 3 because AI was being more accurate and less subjective? For that reason it'd be difficult for PSA to do AI cross overs because they'd have a lot of pissed off submitters that bought the grade and not the card.
