Quick Question - NDlaxbeast927 - 08-09-2012

Hey Guys, i know i havent been very active the last few months, just had some other stuff going on, anyways,

Does it matter value wise what company you have your card graded by, for example, is a card worth more if it is graded by BGS rather then PSA, or vice versa?

I ask this because i was looking at a few jagr rc's on the bay and it seemed that the ones that were BGS graded were generally more $ then the ones that were PSA graded, or is it just a coincidence?

LMK, Thanks!

I am not a big fan of grading cards, but I would always go with BGS. Check this review of the grading service companies from CBC:

Some people prefer BGS, some PSA. They seem to be fairly equal, with BGS being just a touch better.

Stay away from KSA, GMA, BCCG (which is a beckett service but NOT BGS) and all the others.
