Also, PWCC getting booted from Ebay supposedly had little/nothing to do with who they worked with in the TPG field either.
So, for the few of you close-minded souls who choose to chastise and possibly punish CSG for such a partnership, I think they'll be okay living without your business as their goal is to get the most CSG graded cards out in the marketplace as fast as they can, not to make any of you happy because you hate PWCC.
And anyway, once that CSG graded card gets sold through PWCC, the next time it comes to market likely no one is going to remember, or even care, that it originally sold through PWCC. And even then, just because PWCC sells a CSG graded card doesn't mean that PWCC was who submitted it to CSG for grading. Whoever consigned it to PWCC for sale/auction could have acquired the card already graded, or submitted it to CSG for grading themselves, before then consigning it to PWCC. And I'm going to go out on a limb and guess graded cards from all the other TPGs are going to continue to be sold right alongside CSG's graded cards on PWCC's platform going forward. So, I guess you should be mad and make sarcastic and derogatory comments about all those other TPG's as well for allowing their graded cards to be sold by PWCC as well.

Bob, you are missing the point. PWCC on eBay was one of the sleaziest operations in the hobby. Heaven to shill bidders and card doctors of all ilks. Them getting the boot from eBay was a decision to disassociate from an enterprise with a horrible track record of harming collectors. CSG, unfortunately, has decided that the honor is in the dollar. To me, it is the equivalent of deciding to work with a drug dealer: just because you aren't slinging crack rock doesn't excuse a decision to work with someone who is. Just ewww.
IMO also a bad corporate PR move for CSG. if you lay down with dogs you're gonna get up with fleas. I was an early submitter to CSG and was considering further subs. Now, not.
