Poll Should GA disclose that the PSA 6.5 and SGC MIN SIZE Dimaggios are same card?

If you're suggesting I recruited votes, that's absolutely false. I can't believe anyone else would bother to either. I frankly expected the poll to be about 60-40 no.

No, I'm not suggesting that. I know you wouldn't bother with something like that. And I'm not pointing fingers at anyone specifically. Just making an observation that I thought was funny.

This card just ended a few minutes ago on ebay. It sold for about halfway between what a 4 and 5 would sell for. And there were 5 separate bidders who all had bids in above the PSA 4 value.

This brings up a longstanding question I've had with SGC... Do they stock black gaskets that are sized to accommodate undersized cards? I've seen hundreds of cards over the years that are labeled "Minimum Size Not Met", yet (like the McCovey) there is no gap or air space between the card and the gasket.

Quite a contrast between SGC and PSA, who's altered cards in numbered slabs often resemble maracas.

I always assumed gaskets were custom cut. Just an assumption

Not sure what they do now, they used to charge extra for custom cut gaskets.

They custom cut the aprons to fit offcut cards

You have to vote no, simply for the fact, how do you differentiate between who got it right and who got it wrong?
