Make a Suggestion to Grading Companies
I thought i would make this thread, so we, all valued consumers, can make suggestions to grading companies, in hopes that they read this thread. I have seen we have a member of SGC and at least one from Beckett, not sure about PSA.
Here is my first suggestion..... For Beckett and PSA, offer a black background option. SGC cards look so much nicer die to the black background. I just think it would be nice to have the option to put your holders on a level playing field!

good luck

Although it's been awhile, I seem to recall threads in the past, on a variety of boards, recommending changes to the holder, aesthetic or otherwise (more secure, new tamper-evident features. etc). I also seem to recall they were almost universally panned by collectors, who didn't want to see any lack of uniformity in their collections and who viewed a change in holder as merely a money-grubbing ploy to garner all sorts of resubmissions by the TPG. In that sense, the TPGs are kind of damned if you do, damned if you don't. God forbid the pretty little plastic not look exactly the same on all holders. |

there will always be people in find negative aspects no matter what you post. Even if you look for improvements, people will think it is a negative thing somehow!
All i said, is make the background color an option...... so those that prefer clear, can have it, and same with black. Everyone wants tamper proof, that to me isn't a suggestion....... TPG is about customer service, you would think companies would listen to their customers. If people don't have anything positive to say, Maybe they shouldn't say it... lets try to make this a positive thread, to maybe bring progression to our hobby

I saw a suggestion on another thread that I strongly agree with. For all cards in Authentic slabs, I would love to see a description of why it was slabbed that way. This would help stop the mystery behind why it was determined to be an "A".
Maybe something like A - TRM, etc.... Rob

I would like to see a descriptive notation on the holder with less emphasis on a numerical grade.
For example, I posted on the main board an Old Judge card I once owned that had a gem front, with perfect photo clarity, but because of some reverse paper loss was graded Poor. Rather than see the grade of 1, which I felt was meaningless, I would rather have seen the label read "NR MT front, reverse paper loss." That tells me everything I need to know about the card. The grade 1, on the other hand, told me absolutely nothing. The card could still have received a grade, in this case perhaps Good or Very Good. Now of course I know the graders would never phase out the numerical system, but that would be my wish. Switch to a descriptive system with a short but to the point assessment of the card.

SO maybe a grade for the front and one for the back is what you might be interested in??
