I know what SGC's is, what's PSA's?

Could someone please clarify the "conflict of interest" issues by some of the third-party graders? I'm a recent returnee to collecting, and was about to submit some of the high-end cards from my prior collection for grading, as well as some newly acquired T206s lots. Thanks.

For the record, sending cards to either SGC or PSA is fine. Either one will enhance ("$$$$") your collection. But, to partially answer your question, perhaps this thread is a good place to start (at least from SGC's perspective): http://www.net54baseball.com/showthr...ght=FORMAN+SGC

Lovely Day...

I think if you do a search for conflict of interest you will find some recent posts. I don't want to stir up that whole pot again. EDIT Oops I missed the post above where Iggy posted a link. There are others as well debating that conflict.
