CSG's Perfect 10 Slab

[cgilmo]

Hey guys. I know I haven't talked to a lot of you in a while but I'm still chasing graded cards and I've gotten pretty deep into what CSG does. They have became my #2 slab passing up beckett and SGC.

Here is their new perfect 10 slab. What do you guys think?

The flip is still taller than Peyton Manning's forehead, even with the changes. It's fugly. It's a little better than the green maybe but still bad. They're the second worst looking slabs out there, even with the clearest plastic, only because HGA's label design department is staffed by 7 year olds on an acid trip.

The fact that they lowered their grading standards with the new flips is an issue too. They should have stuck with the stricter grading criteria.

The case looks very flimsy. Worse than any other grading companies, like if some ugly person looked at it the case would just shatter.

Nice flip ruined by the cheap file cabinet sticker-looking rectangle that holds the text. Couldn’t they have kept the black/gold motif throughout?

I have hundreds of these. They are remarkably sturdy.

I like the case, but the label is too big. I dig the case and everything else, but having the upper label section be at least half the card length takes attention from the card. I’d much prefer it to be smaller. The card rocks though go Buckeyes, O-H!

Exactly. There's no reason for the flip to be 30-40% larger than any other company, especially when 80% of the back of the label is empty space.

Mark me down for not being a fan of the flip. I'll be sticking with PSA.
