If it is an Emmitt---- sledghammer

Any other--- very careful...

Pretty easy compared to some others.

Pliers on the top edge above the flip. Break off the lip and carefully run a screwdriver around the edge.

Good luck.

I think SGC is by far one of the easiest behind PSA to crack.
I usually take a flathead screwdriver and pry it open starting from the top. For faster result, just crack one of the top corners with pliers. That should leave you an opening to slip the flathead in pop it open.

I knew you were going to crack that SGC auto Emmitt out

Good luck and be careful.

I'll gladly let you know if you give me your weed wackers and lawnmowers.

Use a small screwdriver and make some pops all the way around plastic. Then wipe the sweat off you brow due to the thrilling suspense of actually being able to handle the card. SGC was the easiest holder I've ever opened.

Experience includes 3 SGC, 6 PSA and yes 1 PRO (which was a pain in the arse).

Good Luck and make sure it's very quiet in the house so you can concentrate and not ruin your card..

You do it the same as a PSA case. Just run a knife through the edge of the corner and pry open.

Why on earth would anyone ever want to crack a card out of an SGC case?

I use a drummel zip zip zip around it and just lift it off I couldnt bare to watch a screwdriver slip and catch the card.
