TPG = PSA

Johnny630- you've completely missed the point. The point is that SGC was
NOT interested in "how well the card would sell" in their holder. Instead,
they were properly interested in atoning for a mistake. I am amazed by
people who continually moan about grading companies and their urge to
one up one another, who then make comments like yours in a public forum.
I gave up on PSA long ago, but SGC comparatively seems to have the best
interest of their consumers in mind on a more consistent basis. Rather than
point to one example of SGC giving a grade you don't like, how about a
coherent explanation of what they are supposed to do, that would somehow
satisfy you? Or is that dreaming an impossible dream? Geesh.

LOL, but no, it's true of the others too.

But in all fairness to a much lesser extent, I think.

PSA has graded countless more cards, so of course.

True, I am also sure they have a way higher percentage of "bad" grades than the others from my personal experience.

My takeaway is that shiny cards suck.
