I've heard the same about their cards, but especially their graded packs. Early ones are unopened, many resealed ones got through later on.
I'd say they're close to SGC when they were good, but I don't have personal experience. I've bought some SCD graded 1952 Topps for my PSA set, cracked them out, and they did okay, even with PSA being thought to have tightened their standards:

Of course, I think I bought them all for around PSA 4-5 prices, so even the ones the dropped still "improved" in value.
