Saco River T206s....

PSA has a monetary reason for grading harder than the other companies. The set registry and the continued pursuit for the world's best set. The only thing that both companies should strive for is consistency in grading...not necessarily with each other, but today's PSA 4 should look like yesterday's PSA 4.

You hit it right on the head with PSA and the monetary aspect--also their registry--todays psa 4 looks like 5-10 years ago psa 6. Don

You snagged a lot of the Saco haul this last time. Good luck on the sales.

Yes I did 16 single cards included a few scarce versions and the 1912 World Series program along with the Ruth/Gehrig ball. There is a high end collector from North Carolina who flys up for the auction and he spends around 30K-35K per auction---he is working on the El Principe De Gales back set---Tough to beat him when he wants a card or 10 card sheet.--I am looking forward to the next auction.

Just my opinon on this:

Fact 1:

If you are really going to love your country, you are going to have to love moonshine.

Fact 2: PSA cards do sell higher than SGC. I know that from many years of collecting. My personal cards go to SGC and flips go to PSA.

I don't really know why, but the public perception seems to be that PSA is better... more accurate.

And perception, even if unfounded, is reality.
