Big disclaimer up front, in case you didn't read the
home page: the company where I work does marketing
for SGC. So statements I make about grading companies
may be viewed as being biased.
That said, my presence here is as a collector, primarily of graded cards, and not as SGC's ad guy. The things I post here are my own opinion, and this post is no exception.
Several people have mentioned over the last few days that, if in fact Global is going out of business, that is bad for the hobby.
My opinion is that Global going out of business is decidedly NOT bad for the hobby. In the world of graded cards, nothing could be better. They might be the nicest guys on earth, but that doesn't absolve them from the myriad of mistakes that they've made, costing collectors confidence and money.
Nothing about this company has been "good for the hobby." They can't go out of business fast enough.
