Face it, a lot of grading is probably done to enhance the value of cards to be sold. Let's assume many graded cards hit the market soon after they leave the TPG. I worry that cards could be intentionally undergraded, the serial numbers noted, then monitored for sales on Ebay and the AH's. They get purchased by those who know the undergraded serial numbers, and the cards can be resubmitted for a bump.

There is at least one, former I believe, SGC grader on the board. Maybe he will speak up or not.

The CFO makes 315k so using that as a benchmark I would think the head grader makes 125k or so and then the others in the 60k to 80k range. Just a guess. |

Graders make $35K-$45k roughly the last time I was pursuing that as a job. Best paid guy was $65k or so

As said before, that'd be my worry. Not really as worried about precisely how they could do it (seems there are many ways... And seeing PSA method, the receiving person assigning the new serial number seems to hold a lot of power), as I am by the simple fact these guys don't make much, yet have power to add tens/hundreds of thousands in market value to the items they review on a daily basis.

That's a pretty bold accusation.
