Same here... seriously thinking of giving them a try, but am still awaiting a reply from them on the slabs/flips for Tobacco and Caramel cards.

Looks to already be a CSG grading company.

I emailed CSG about smaller cards and here is the response:

Hello Andy,

For smaller cards we create a custom clear insert to hold the card safely in place.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thank you and have a wonderful day,

For smaller cards we create a custom clear or black insert to hold the card safely in place.

One can only dream...

Do you know if they have larger slabs for exhibits and t200s?

I think I'll give CSG a try given the ridiculous delay and price increase at psa

I was told they do not have any larger size right now, basically standard card size or smaller, at least right now.

I just called them to ask about this. I requested that they put a picture up on their website (of a Tobacco Card within the Slab/Insert). They agreed that was a good idea, and will do so shortly.

I told them I am hesitant to submit anything until I see the actual aesthetics, and they fully understood. They also said that the insert will not be a flimsy baggie like PSA uses. They said it is composed of a more rigid material.

So hopefully, the cards won't present diagonally, off-centered or sideways like they frequently do with PSA. And hopefully there will be no unsightly wrinkling, puckering or crumpling of the "insert", as is so frequently seen with PSA slabs that aren't properly sized.

Fingers crossed!
