Is it better to grade pre-war cards like this with SGC or PSA?

@johnsmanycollections4662 6 месяцев назад

SGC is PSA now, right? But to answer the question they look better in a tux imo.

@JunkWaxHero 6 месяцев назад

@@johnsmanycollections4662 they’re both owned by the same company but not merged (yet).

@ACD1994 6 месяцев назад

SGC imo. A lot of pre-war cards are likely been trimmed and altered. I think both companies have made some mistakes when it comes to have giving an assigned grade to one that shouldn't have, but between these 2. SGC. They focused on vintage from the beginning.

Mike you always find such interesting stories and do a good job sharing them too.

Great story, I like SGC slabs for vintage

@jeancasola9340 6 месяцев назад

I have no doubt there are 1000's of expensive cards out there waiting to be discovered so the search continues.

@sextonskentuckycardboard5435 6 месяцев назад

I prefer SGC for my PC but of course PSA sells for more.

@JunkWaxHero 6 месяцев назад

Still sells for more with pre-war?

@sextonskentuckycardboard5435 6 месяцев назад

I think so. Not a lot of volume to compare.

@richardbianco9674 6 месяцев назад

Sgc sells higher for pre war, but is about even for most vintage.

@kenrogers1948 6 месяцев назад

"You say FAT-ima, I say Fa-TEEM-uh, Let's call the whole thing off!"... SGC is just plain better for vintage... the number of vintage cards that I've gotten back from PSA where the grades don't compute is much, much higher than with SGC...

@JunkWaxHero 6 месяцев назад

I hear that a lot

@richardbianco9674 6 месяцев назад

Rarity just isn't based on pop reports. And these were never counterfeited like the t206 were so that fear isn't a thing.

@JunkWaxHero 6 месяцев назад

Fair

I one time I found 100's of '81 topps Coca cola Phillies cards in cello packs scattered all over the floor of an abandoned warehouse in the 90's. Most were warped by water damage, but I kept a few of them over the years. I also had a pack of unopened Pokemon cards from '99 fall out of an old notebook I kept since high school. I don't even remember putting it in there, but sure enough it landed on the floor about two years ago and I was stunned lol

@JunkWaxHero 6 месяцев назад

Nice!

@MrJmangini 6 месяцев назад

There are hundreds of cards more rare than that Wagner including many other Wagners. I have a Fatima tin. Pretty cool.

@JunkWaxHero 6 месяцев назад

Yes, but for context it’s interesting. I’ve mentioned it for context many times.

@MrJmangini 6 месяцев назад

@@JunkWaxHero oh yes. Rare cards are always interesting to me. But a 1981 Nolan Ryan sells for more if it has a 10 on the flip 😂

@JunkWaxHero 6 месяцев назад

@@MrJmangini yeah that’s crazy. Give me a T222 Fatima over a 1981 Ryan.

@JoeWoodCollector-Doug 6 месяцев назад

I definitely prefer my pre war cards to be graded by SGC over PSA due to consistency in grading and appearance. SGC has the top 3 highest dollar sales in pre war cards so I'm not sure that PSA is bringing better value or sales over SGC in pre war.

@JunkWaxHero 6 месяцев назад

Yeah that makes sense

@sportscardlegends 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for story. I actually have the Fatima Grover Alexander in a SGC Authentic. Only about 12 in SGC population. It’s one of his first cards. Very cool set.

@JunkWaxHero 6 месяцев назад

Very cool!

@johnsmanycollections4662 6 месяцев назад

John's collection had 3 1913 Fatima Team cards (T200) but none from the set in the video. One of the team cards included Casey Stengal's first card in a pro uniform. They were cool because the bat boys were included on the team photos.

@JunkWaxHero 6 месяцев назад

Very cool! I almost talked about T200 in this video but decided to keep it shorter.

I get my diamond matchbooks graded by psa, I've been sending a request for them to add the 34 silver boarder baseball set to the registry.

@JunkWaxHero 6 месяцев назад

I heard recently that they’re not adding anything new for a while. Too backed up

@ASMRPeople 6 месяцев назад

@@JunkWaxHero Sounds true. I've requested the diamond matchbooks for a couple of years, but have not in a while. It's one of those things where I wish the collectors could help out. It's a complicated set the best checklist are probably collectors excel docs.

@larrygitlin6017 6 месяцев назад

When it comes to early sets like this, I do not think it matters if it is SGC or PSA. I preferred as of late SGC as the grading is more consistent but see how things go now that Collectors Universe owns them.

@JunkWaxHero 6 месяцев назад

Good call

@NuthinFancyCollectibles 6 месяцев назад

What a find with an amazing back story. SGC for that type of vintage. Just my opinion.

About 7 years ago we renovated our 1857-era house. The only things we found of note were an 1898 Boston and maybe railroad schedule and an 1898 Indian head penny buried in the walls
