I disagree with the current scale and would prefer a grade of about 4 for that Russell. Great card, despite the OC.
I know that people are acclimated to the current system and no new grading company is likely to change it anytime soon. I just wish that someone would. As for the Mantle... Does the staining go through to the front? Or is that dark center area just a shadow of some kind? |

That Bill Russel is laughable at a 2.5 It looks fantastic. The only problem I see is the centering, which AFFECTS PRACTICALLY EVERY 1961 FLEER you look at!!!

a couple of not so practically
I agree the Mays is over graded. Also that the flip is a HUGE detractor. Agree with an earlier comment that the biggest problem lies between gross inconsistency and gross incompetency! Anyone care to guess the grades on these?

I'd go with grades of 'astonishing' and 'stunning'.

I participated in a group submission to CSG and sent 15 cards. All modern era cards within the last 10 years or so. I just don't think the flip would look good with a vintage card in it and that Mays proves it.

At the end of Feb I sent in cards to CSG @ 3 different levels--Bulk, Economy & Standard--all w/ different completion dates. Just got word that Standard & Economy are ready to ship & Bulk will be a bit longer (as expected).
Anxious to see the results as they are ALL cards I plan on Selling as I continue to liquidate my life-long collection.

Promised UPDATE:
My STANDARD submission (25 days) was logged in 3-11, shipped back 3-17 & recvd in hand yesterday 3-25----14 days total. One comment on grading--CSG seems to be tough on centering--I will have a better opinion when I get ALL my cards back. Expecting my ECONOMY lot (40 days) maybe tomorrow. Here's my '55 Aaron:

I think the consensus here is that CSG is not really going after the vintage market. Think about it. If you were starting this business would you go after the business that PSA and SGC have a monopoly on? And to make that decision easier, the market where they aren’t making any new cards? It’s obvious that HGA and CSG are going after the modern market and I don’t blame them. Millions of new cards made every year and the younger generation are more open to change. Just my 2 cents.....
