The creases that make an SGC 60 an SGC 50 do not show up in scans on ebay, where a huge amount of cards change hands.  So, when you are purchasing 500 T206 cards on ebay over the course of a few years, and you want to be certain they don\'t have hidden wrinkles, you had better be buying SGC 60s.  If you show me a PSA 4/SGC 50 that got bumped up/crossed over to an SGC 60, I will show you a card I am comfortable does not have any wrinkles in it and may now consider purchasing for more money than the PSA 4/SGC 50 was going to cost me, when I wasn\'t interested in it.  <br />\n<br />\nSame card, true, but some different assumptions now go into it with the higher SGC grade.<br />\n<br />\nHere\'s a perfectly good example.  I own this card.  If I saw this on ebay, the only way I would know there is a wrinkle in it would be if the dealer told me in the listing (fat chance) or I understood how SGC graded its 50s.  This card would be a 60 if it weren\'t for the "unscannable" wrinkle.  If you popped this out and resubmitted it, the only way it gets to be an SGC 60 would be if this wrinkle didn\'t exist.

Is it possible?  Sure.  But never happened to me.  Moreover, since I tolerate corner wear on my SGC 60s, a lot of PSA 4s will cross to SGC 60 and that is fine by me.  I will pay more for them, once SGC has certified they are wrinkle-free.<br />\n<br />\nWhen I was putting together my SGC T206 set a few years ago, I developed a theory that the only PSA 5s on ebay were the ones that SGC wouldn\'t cross over to 60s because of the spider wrinkles.  Frankly, what do you think all the SGC collectors do when they get their crossover submissions back from SGC with 1/4 or more of the cards failing as a result of minimum grade requirements?  They get dumped on ebay.\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		<!-' + '- sig -' + '->\r\n			<div>\r\n				__________________<br />\r\n				<b>Galleries and Articles about T206 Player Autographs</b><br />\r\n<b><font face="Garamond"><font size="4"><a href="http://www.SignedT206.com" target="_blank">www.SignedT206.com</a></font></font></b><br />\r\n<b><font face="Garamond"><font size="4"><br />\r\n<a href="http://www.instagram.com/signedT206/" target="_blank">www.instagram.com/signedT206/</a></font></font></b> <b>@SignedT206</b>\r\n			</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / sig -' + '->\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		<!-' + '- edit note -' + '->\r\n			<div class="smallfont">\r\n				<hr size="1" style="color:#D1D1E1; background-color:#D1D1E1" />\r\n				<em>\r\n					\r\n						Last edited by T206Collector; 05-21-2010 at <span class="time">10:33 AM</span>.\r\n					\r\n					\r\n				</em>\r\n			</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / edit note -' + '->\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=810285" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 810285 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_810285_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">T206Collector</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=22">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?do=newpm&amp;u=22" rel="nofollow">Send a private message to T206Collector</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="http://www.SignedT206.com">Visit T206Collector\'s homepage!</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=22" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by T206Collector</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 810285 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #810285 -' + '->';

First of all if ANYONE else ran the board I am sure it would be different in some manner. Everyone has their own ideas on how it should go. Here are some of my thoughts.<br />\n <br />\nKenny Cole (hey Kenny), the original poster, is a good hobby friend and one of my most-liked lawyers on the board. I see about 99% the same way he does on most things. That being said I slightly disagree on the sentiment concerning this thread. Are there possibly too many of these types of threads? Maybe, maybe not. For better or worse there are few bigger topics in the hobby than grading. For that reason the number of threads pertaining to it is substantial. <br />\n <br />\nMy philosophy is, and has been from day 1, is to have as hands off of an approach as I can with regards to moderation. Now, I understand this is a private type chatboard and there really is no "freedom of speech" but I still like to think there is, and manage it that way. I do NOT believe it is my right to tell people what to post about, as long as it pertains to something in our hobby. I don\'t tell people what to say in their posts either. I feel people should be left to hang themselves if they so desire. In my opinion the worst thing I could do is be too strict in the moderating category. Do I like card related threads and talking about our cards and the hobby, more than anything on the board? Sure I do. But to expect it to be soley that way is unrealistic, again, imo. During some calls yesterday it was funny how the other folks knew where I would be on some issues. If nothing else I try to be consistent and I try to help the other mods in keeping that consistency. It is a very, very open forum as long as the rules are kept in mind. I will come down on folks who continually mess up or cause way too much commotion, but those are rare instances. Everyone that has been on the board for very long knows what is allowed and what is not...and there is a LOT of leniency given in most matters, especially to everyday posters. <b>I have 0 tolerance for very much harsh profanity or talking about others\' family members.</b> As recently seen no topic is off limits even concerning advertisers. When the banners went up there were a few advertisers that felt they should be protected from criticisms on the board. Before I hung up on their calls they were no longer advertisers. Every banner advertiser now understands that their company, including B and L, is not off limits. <br />\n <br />\nI feel that all of these beliefs ADD to the legitimacy of the board, right or wrong. We are adding around 60-75 new members a month for some reason...and it\'s not because of my good looks!! I sort of feel like a boxing referee in that I should be seen but not heard. The less moderating I have to do the happier I am and I feel the better the board is.

In my opinion....from the infamous <br />\r\nAlan Hager days (circa 1990), to the infamous PSA 8 Wagner, to the graded T206 fakes which were "Re-Fronted", to the pre-<br />\r\nsent situation....this Grading phenomena has adversely affected this BB card hobby. How many examples can offer of this ?<br />\r\nI will spare you how many.....as they are too numerous.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nUnfortunately, there are many on this forum which have no way of comparing the present with the PPG (pre-professional gra-<br />\r\nding) days of the 1970\'s, 1980\'s and early 1990\'s. Therefore, they are stuck in the "plastic age" and cannot be truly objective<br />\r\n about negative aspects of this current grading craze. Once you start professionally assigning "numbers" to pieces of cardboard,<br />\r\n that  have no inherent $$$$ value, you\'ve opened up a pandora\'s box of problems, corruption, etc.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nBut, I must be realistic.....we are all stuck with this Grading crap.....whether we like it or not. And, the only solution we have<br />\r\n was 1st suggested by Barry Sloate in another thread......<br />\r\n<br />\r\n\'What the numbers really do is keep the graders in business, and keep the resubmissions coming in at a brisk pace.

I agree with most of what you say. I\'ve never understood the whole graded card thing. Why should I pay extra for a trimmed card when I can just buy one raw for less money? I must admit, though, I get a guilty pleasure out of busting those darn things open. Curiously, the only card I\'ve ever paid to get graded is a 1940 Play Ball color proof, and even though it\'s slabbed by SGC, I\'ve had several folks here question its authenticity ...\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=810318" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 810318 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_810318_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">Chris-Counts</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=349">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?do=newpm&amp;u=349" rel="nofollow">Send a private message to Chris-Counts</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=349" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by Chris-Counts</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 810318 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #810318 -' + '->';

I think part of the problem is the grading threads get so many replies, and thus bumped to the top, that folks feel compelled to go back and find out what train-wreck they missed.  I like my cards graded but I really don\'t care what the grade is.  If I have to have a magnifying glass to identify that there is a wrinkle then I really don\'t care about that wrinkle.

Were someone to list only your not-so-great posts in an attempt to discredit you on the whole, it would be pretty easy. Folks who are dead-set against professional grading are adept at listing all of the negatives and none of the positives.<br />\r\n<br />\r\nA lot of us <i>were</i> active in the hobby before professional grading came on the scene. It wasn\'t all candy and nuts. Dealers repeatedly overgraded their cards and undergraded yours. There was fraud then -' + '- specifically card doctoring and trimming -' + '- just like there is now. Do I wish, like I\'m sure you do, that there was a "less professional" feel to the hobby now like there was in the 1970s? Absolutely.

I always thought they were awesome, but couldn\'t afford them. One of my first purchases was a three card lot off the BST. I thought the SGC holders really made the cards look good, and I was curious to know how they would grade them, so I sent them in. They all came back altered. I could see the alterations after they sent them back, but I didn\'t notice them online or in hand before that. So I stopped buying raw cards. Since I buy graded cards, I read the threads about grading services to gain knowledge...which is what this forum is about to me. <br />\r\n<br />\r\nSo for those of you that can spot a fake a mile away and don\'t need the services of a grading company...I\'m happy for you. Your experience does you a service. But I\'m not as experienced as you. If there weren\'t grading companies doing what they do, I wouldn\'t be able to participate in this hobby. <br />\r\n<br />\r\nAll that being said, I do get tired of reading about the same subject at times. It\'s cool though because I have a solution. I just go to the next thread.\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		<!-' + '- sig -' + '->\r\n			<div>\r\n				__________________<br />\r\n				R Dixon\r\n			</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / sig -' + '->\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=810377" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 810377 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_810377_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">rdixon1208</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=379">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?do=newpm&amp;u=379" rel="nofollow">Send a private message to rdixon1208</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="http://www.dixonsbaseballcards.weebly.com">Visit rdixon1208\'s homepage!</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=379" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by rdixon1208</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 810377 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #810377 -' + '->';

We differ on this one.  I`m not pro grading nor am I anti grading.

And he called my opinion "laughable."\r\n		</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / message -' + '->\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n		<!-' + '- sig -' + '->\r\n			<div>\r\n				__________________<br />\r\n				<b>Galleries and Articles about T206 Player Autographs</b><br />\r\n<b><font face="Garamond"><font size="4"><a href="http://www.SignedT206.com" target="_blank">www.SignedT206.com</a></font></font></b><br />\r\n<b><font face="Garamond"><font size="4"><br />\r\n<a href="http://www.instagram.com/signedT206/" target="_blank">www.instagram.com/signedT206/</a></font></font></b> <b>@SignedT206</b>\r\n			</div>\r\n		<!-' + '- / sig -' + '->\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		\r\n\r\n		<div style="margin-top: 10px" align="right">\r\n			<!-' + '- controls -' + '->\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				<a href="newreply.php?do=newreply&amp;p=810394" rel="nofollow"><img src="images/buttons/quote.gif" alt="Reply With Quote" border="0" /></a>\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			\r\n				\r\n			\r\n			\r\n			<!-' + '- / controls -' + '->\r\n		</div>\r\n\r\n	<!-' + '- message, attachments, sig -' + '->\r\n\r\n	</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</table>\r\n\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- post 810394 popup menu -' + '->\r\n<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="postmenu_810394_menu" style="display:none;">\r\n	<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">\r\n	<tr>\r\n		<td class="thead">T206Collector</td>\r\n	</tr>\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="member.php?u=22">View Public Profile</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="private.php?do=newpm&amp;u=22" rel="nofollow">Send a private message to T206Collector</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="http://www.SignedT206.com">Visit T206Collector\'s homepage!</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n		<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php?do=finduser&amp;u=22" rel="nofollow">Find all posts by T206Collector</a></td></tr>\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	\r\n	</table>\r\n</div>\r\n<!-' + '- / post 810394 popup menu -' + '->\r\n\r\n\r\n	</div>\r\n	\r\n		</div>\r\n	</div>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / close content container -' + '->\r\n\r\n<!-' + '- / post #810394 -' + '->';

			I'll spare you my usual lengthy diatribe here.....you, as others on this Net, take any of us anti-grading dudes' comments<br />
 too personal. It doesn't bother me that the majority of the folks here love graded cards....more power to them and you.<br />
<br />
But, I am entitled to express my feelings regarding this subject (as others have similarly expressed here). And, they are<br />
 simply..all the cards I love and have collected from 1887 Old Judges to 1967 Topps were more affordable back in the PPG<br />
era (see my above post #51). And, collecting these aesthetically appealing pieces of cardboard was more fun back in the<br />
 1970's, 1980's and early to mid 1990's.<br />
<br />
I don't think I'm being totally unobjective when I say that since the Grading phenomena, these factors have significantly<br />
 diminished.<br />
