@ArnoldMoger @PokeTeeJay @javaakumayt Probably just keep it and store it away. I mostly submit with PSA because it is the easiest to move. However, I do have a few other slabs so I’ll just add it to the collection.

@ArnoldMoger @PokeTeeJay @javaakumayt I don’t use TAG for that very reason. Decided to see if this video was legit. Submitted a card and got a 5. Cracked and resubmitted and got a 9. Figured I’d try again for a 10… nope! Got a 7 instead.

We all know PSA is wildly inconsistent, but is TAG any more consistent? YouTuber @javaakumayt made a video putting TAG regrading to the test. The results were shocking!! Almost every card came back with different grades, some higher and some lower. This means one of two things must be true. 1. TAG's AI grading equipment is inherently flawed for repeatable results. OR 2. TAG silently pushes updates to either the hardware or software components to make its "algorithm" better. I personally believe number 2 is more likely, which means if TAG grading is all about transparency as they claim, then the their algorithm version should be published with every single graded card on their registry. This would likely cause cards graded on the older TAG algorithm to be valued inferiorly, but we already have to deal with this for PSA grading. So many old cert PSA slabs would not get 10s if cracked and regraded today. If TAG is not going to offer this additional transparency for its algorithm versions, then it means their DIG reports are not reliable or trustworthy. This all begs the question, why use @TAGgrading if you can't trust the data they provide? Sounds no different than PSA to me.
