Nat Turner is for a combined set registry

So if SGC cards as graded are equivalent for registry purposes, why wouldn't PSA also automatically cross them? If not, seems inconsistent.

Expecting consistency now from the great TPG monolith seems a bit like wishful thinking given our collective experience to date.

Maybe at some point they will. It might be inconsistent but it makes sense from a set registry purpose to accept the grade. This future blended registry might identify if the card in the set as an SGC or a PSA card as opposed to simply going by the grade. Most would likely value a purebred PSA set over one with the same GPA that contained SGC cards.

Grading standards have changed over time and each company at various times in their history has graded with different emphasis for the final grade. If we were to crack out almost any PSA 7 that was graded 10 years ago, my guess is that today PSA would not deem them 7s yet there are numerous sets that contain these older graded cards that carry the same weight as a card in the same grade that was graded today.
