had an SGC 40 card [graded so low because of centering], cracked it out, got it regarded as PSA 9 MC, and sold it for about 3x what I originally paid for it.
We can all complain about not liking qualifiers, but sometimes they serve a great place in the hobby. For example, doesn't John Wondaticket have a PSA 8 N172 Ed Delahanty that has the MK qualifier because it's literally among the nicest/strongest images Old Judge N172s I've ever seen, but it has writing on the back (which distracts in no way). |

I was looking at the SGC pop reports today and noticed that they have added "35" (2.5) to their grading scale.

That's great news! I always wondered why they issued some half-grades, but not to every one of them...didn't make sense to me. Glad to see them get on board!

The SGC scale always has confused me. Why is it 20 points from EX to EXMT but only 4 points from NM to NMMT?

![]() Here is what the Customer Service Rep Earl J. had to say about the issue (taken from the SGC forums): "SGC has not implemented new half grades at this time. The grade column in question that appeared on the Population Report was due to a computer glitch. If new grades are to be added in the future, we will make the information available to our customers and on our website at that time. Thank you for your continued support of SGC!"

He didn't exactly rule it out for the future now did he?
