Really the only reason I would use it personally is if I had cards that I were questioning authenticity on.. and I have none.

I could be wrong, Peter made it sound to me that the $25 fee is for any and all cards no matter the value.

$2500 Max value.
40% off when you decide to get a pre grade encapsulated.

As I posted...that Peter can deliver horrible news to you and you will end up thanking him profusely as you complete your communication with him. Standing O for Mr. Steinberg. He should be listed as an Asset on SGC's balance sheet.

so $25 to pre grade and $18 to encapsulate. Why would you spend $43 instead of $30?

SGC is sorely in need of someone who knows how to market their product.

I will submit a few

Shhh!!!! Peter went to a great deal to tell all us all what an incredible opportunity it is. Now you just ruined it by injecting common sense.

If you don't like the pre-grade, which you probably won't, you still have a raw card and save $5 + shipping both ways. Quite a deal!!!

You don’t. People who aren’t good and determining for themselves what the condition of a card is will use this service at the National with SGC, then immediately turn around and submit the card to PSA! LOL

ClementeFanOh · #11 07-23-2022, 09:19 AM

Johhny360- then wait 6 months for cards that stand a decent chance of
being wrongly graded? Gotta finish the thought, don't we? Trent King

PS- you know, that may not be a bad strategy after all. Submit to PSA so
that, when they finally return the submission, the cards have become "vintage"
in the interim. So THAT is the logic, that's the long play. Ingenious!

The fact is that SGC does not even allow phone calls unless you are privileged to have their private numbers yet currently still has huge amount of demand, so I guess they think they know what they are doing.

I no longer submit anymore with such a blatant disregard for customers to either company unless its thru an auction house, they get better service, its time the complainers do the same.

This is 100% spot on for both PSA and SGC.

People for the most part don't care about customer service, they just want the flip and slabs. It's ironic because back in the day SGC used to have outstanding customer service over the phone, in my limited experience. And not all that long ago when I submitted some relatively obscure nonsports cards, Matt Clark could not have been better to deal with.

They've set the bar so low, anyone can trip over it
