My question: Why did REA start the bidding at such a WIDE disparity? The centering on the PSA card MIGHT be a tad better. Might.
Why do I ask? I have a SGC 7.5 1952 Topps Jackie Robinson and I'm wondering if I should break it out (when I am ready to sell) and roll the dice by submitting to PSA.
I am planning to go to the National and will ask REA this question BUT I thought the forum might have some insights. What am I missing? Thanks. Peace.

Often the consignor has input regarding where they want the bidding to start. Perhaps that happened in this case. I know PSA slabs sell for more, but have found that 7-8 times out of ten, the SGC card will be superior to the PSA card with the same grade.
