I have no dog in the PSA vs SGC fight since I buy both. However it is fair to point out the distinction between SGC older flips. Any SGC flip that has the two grades on the front is honored. The flips with only SGC's numerical grade is not guaranteed because they were graded under different ownership. At least that's my understanding.

Wanted to add..... It could be argued that any old PSA flips should be bought at a price of a grade below as well. Many older graded PSA cards would not grade at the same grade today as well.

Goes back to same old mantra. But the card not the holder!

In my eyes it's a clear choice, same player, same grade, same back, SAME PRICE, it's psa 100pct of the time. They resell for more if I ever chose to liquidate. Wouldn't make sense to do anything else.

All things equal, including price, then I hear you. But I wouldn't pay a premium for a PSA 5 over an SGC 60 if the same card was in both holders.

Dean is exactly right. The OP was reporting fake news or at least did not post accurate info. SGC does honor their guarantee when they deem it is appropriate however they will not honor a guarantee of the previous owner, Joe Merkel. Those holders are the ones that only have a single SGC numerical grade. Did not look like the SGC graded T206s that are up now under Probstein are ones graded under Merkel's ownership.

I usually would not take the bait but geez...Another week....and another negative thread about a large volume ebay seller.....they are in cahoots with SGC getting better grades then everyone else.....let me guess that they have shill bidders as well....this song is is getting old.
