    The only thing that matters is ROI. And of course I have not submitted anything to SGC because regardless of the grade, they are not worth much. The market is pretty clear that a SGC 10 is only worth a PSA 7 or so, and it has more to do with the grading than the slab. If you think it is untrue or that there is an arbitrage to be had, purchase the SGC cards and flip them over the PSA for regrading.  But people are not doing that because we don't have confidence that a SGC 10 will be a 9 or 10 at PSA.

     

    Hopefully CSG will prove more like PSA than SGC.

    I'll agree that a PSA 10 out sells SGC 10 by a good range.  On eBay I have sold the SGC 9.5 in the same range as a PSA 9, the gap, from what I've seen, is not SGC 10 = PSA 7 for the entirely of the Sports Card market, but you may find instances where that is true.  PSA has the publicity and numbers, but IMO, SGC, CSG and Beckett all grade tougher than PSA.  Not enough for the average person to take notice.  For me, it's about the card, as we saw with the recent SGC Babe Ruth card selling for $6 million.
