  1. My personal research has CSG prices running 55/60% of what PSA gets. I’m sure the numbers change based on the specific years and card sets of each person’s interest
  2. Not really I’m guessing the centering was 6.5 which would mean even if the other grades were 9.5’s the highest grade would be 7.5 😳
  3. I agree I think it’s top bottom centering, I experienced this
  4. I’m going to agree with the mention that CSG is tough on the surface grade, definitely cost me on cards I saw no issues with the surface when I sent them in. Looks like a smudge on “Magic” on the Shaq card and I swear that was not there when I sent it in. The Crosby card I have no clue.
  5. I didn’t find anything with the online submission form to send in my 1997 wwf stickers. am I missing something
  6. I think we should have a fun thread where we can share some results. disappointed my Bobby Orr didn’t grade but these were ok...
  7. I’m wondering about how the final grade is achieved when looking at all the sub grades. Centering 5.5 Corners 3.5 Edges 4.5 Surface 3 what is the final grade and how is that configured?
  8. I just got this back and I am happy with the entire CSG experience
  9. I have to be honest, I don’t understand why the grading companies aren’t working 7 days a week. With the amount of demand going on it would seem a wise idea to add staff, create some new scheduling and go full speed ahead.
  10. I can’t imagine anyone sending cards of value for grading would ever send them without adding the minimal charge for signature confirmation. Really?
  11. I disagree with the concept of multiple locations. If anything has been learned the past year from the pandemic, Amazon and zoom, it’s that we don’t need brick and mortar locations to succeed at many things. Delivery overnight isn’t expensive and big companies have seen an emphasis on controlling costs and employee quality in a single location. Amazon breaks the norm because their size isn’t a comparable, they are a freak they are so big. I expect to see PSA to make the hard decision to move to Texas at some point because California is a terrible place for a business of their type. I sincerely hope we are seeing a true success with CSG. I like everything I see with them so far and we need the alternative. Whatever happens I have always done this for the fun and enjoyment as a hobby and remember - one mans ceiling is another mans floor. I may submit 50 cards the next guy may submit 5 cards the next guy might submit 5000 cards - don’t be critical of the reason because we all have our own reasons. I wish everyone good luck with their grades !!
  12. I think I will educate myself on hurricane seasons and avoid them for submissions
  13. https://topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/consumer-products/psa-card-class-action-says-altered-baseball-cards-graded-auctioned ????
  14. what is the proper way to submit cards if i am sending 20 cards total with a mix of 2 express, 10 economy and 8 standard. do i need to separate the different tiers physically or just on the submission form? If i want sub grades on only 10 cards is that only noted on submission form?
