It’s not that PSA is “too tight” on their requirements, it’s that they are straight up not even grading cards anymore. They got buried in submissions and are just slapping labels with random grades on these bulk orders. Go look at the grading standards on PSA’s website and read the description of what a Near Mint 7 is and compare it to the Ja Morant. There’s no way it’s a 7. PSA 7s can have “frayed corners, 70/30 centering, printing blemishes, surface wear, out of focus photos and wax stains on the back.” I’d venture to say no ultra modern card is a 7 except ones that have been damaged or severely mishandled. SGC is fair and consistent whether people like them or not. Can’t say that about PSA.
I’m absolutely done with PSA, I’m with you.
Been waiting for this one too! Thank you for going out of your way and doing this!
Always LOVE the content man. I have fallen in love with SGC and I hope to send more of my cards in soon.
SGC tuxedos look amazing, and they give honest grades. I swear PSA has a policy that states you can only give 10s to commons to keep the pop reports of the superstars artificially low. SGC'S pop reports are booming right now
RetroHoops, Been waiting for your video on this project. Thanks for sharing all your work and intel.
my personal opinion, SGC gets a bad rap. I like SGC, they look outstanding!
LOVED THIS VIDEO. I just started sending things into SGC. I think they've really come out of this PSA debacle looking the best.
You are doing a service to the card collecting/investing/grading community. Great investigating and doing the work on your dime so that we can make informed decisions on which companies to spend our hard earned money using. Bravo.
Ive said this before on your other videos...if SGC comes back higher, its because PSA got it wrong and they are inconsistent. But If PSA comes back higher, its because SGC is more of an accurate grade and PSA is inconsistent. All these experiments prove is that grading is subjective. If you want more detailed experiments then crack out those same SGC slabs and resend back to SGC grading ten more times and see if they come back the same grade. It does not matter what SGC does, they can do no wrong. Same can be said about any preferred slab company.
My last PSA bulk submission I got back from 80's and 90's was basically half PSA 8 and half PSA 9. None got tens, but some should have been. It seemed to me that they just made piles of my cards in PSA 8 and PSA 9 piles without even looking closely at the cards.
What would really put a nail in this conversation would be to crack those same cards and sub to SGC again... When PSA opens up a cheapish option, crack again, submit to PSA... Then we'd be talking real FACTS.
I'm holding off from submitting anything else for grading. I've never used PSA, but I'm not thrilled to see how all over the place their grading has been. SGC has graded a couple dozen cards for me, but I've found them to be inconsistent too. At the end of the day we're asking people to judge the cards. Customers will eventually get frustrated with the inconsistent grading and likely demand AI grading become the industry standard.
The SGC labels look so much better, regardless of grade.
I think SGC are spot on with their grades. They used to tougher than PSA. But PSA's new grading has just changed the game. Would be interested to see this done with older PSA slabs. Old PSA 10's might only get 8 or 9 in SGC.
I've done 2 submissions with SGC, my 1st time ever grading cards since I've been collecting. (started in 5th grade). I've been very pleased, a few of my cards were vintage and very thin. They moved around in the Slab, SGC instantly had me send them back, and they reslabbed them. Great Customer Service, and I got a 10 on my Sweet Rare Air Jordan Card. Also getting my cards back in about 2 weeks from when I send them. I live in WA State, so it's a long ways to Florida.
Love your research, perspective, and work that you put into the hobby. You won’t get any hate from us! Great video Retro!
Great video as always. That Ja was unreal!! SGC all the way
I'm definitely here for this 🤘😁
Another Retro Hoops Banger! Yo that HGA Offcentered Marcus Smart was too funny
