I think SGC received a boost by grading the 9.5 '52 Topps Mantle accompanied by Alan Rosen's testimonial. It got a lot of free press on UTube and was one of the highlights of last years's National.

Is the PSA bump really an issue in pre-war? I’ve collected for a long time and don’t care which company (PSA/SGC) graded my Cobb T206. I certainly wouldn’t pay any premium either. This seems limited to post-war and modern.

Like others have written, I see much more SGC graded material on the market which reflects their incredibly fast turnaround time for an absurdly fair price but ya get what ya pay for. I have not seen any consistent SGC sales data that reflects pre 1960 material is selling for remotely close to what the PSA counterpart sells for.

Nothing would be better for the market than for 1 or more of the existing grading companies to be able to compete with PSA in terms of relsale but that is simply not taking place.

Hopefully CSG will pick up the slack. Time will tell. Just remember, the ship is only as fast as the captain.

Years ago I switched to SGC for the service and the expertise in dealing with 75+ year old cards.

I must say, the newer tuxedo absolutely pops! Its a reason I keep sending to them. Some day, I believe, the price gap will narrow. Maybe it will take a legitimate registry, or maybe folks will just get fed up with PSA's methods.

Of the big 4, CSG, while new, is the only one who has no controversy surrounding them so that says a great deal. IMO, the company should be supported for that reason alone.

Hopefully they keep it that way!

Until I see CSG Vintage Cards in Major Auctions I'm going to reserve judgment.
