Michael, I didn't say that SGC was a bad grader. I've owned perhaps two SGC graded cards in my life (Topps Tiffany cards to boot!), and they both seemed to be graded accurately. I was not commenting on the quality of the grading companies, but on the hypocritical uses of them as evidence. Many of the same people who complain that SGC grades way too hard (inacurately), will later turn around and use an SGC grade to prove that some auction house grades too liberally (though maybe the auction house does grade too liberally). The point being that one can't have it both ways. For the record, I've bought from MastroNet many times, and sometimes I think they've overgraded stuff and sometimes I think they've undergraded-- this only being my personal opinion on the items I've bought, and overall I've been satisfied.
