PSA to BGS - giantfan270 - 12-23-2012 A few I cracked open and sent to BGS with my last group submission. Nothing special but I like em a lot. Thought you might like to see the before and after's. Was PSA 10 Now BGS 9.5 Was PSA 8 Now BGS 7.5 Was PSA 9 Now BGS 8.5 And this was a PSA 8 and is now a BGS 8.5 RE: PSA to BGS - jonathani - 12-23-2012 That makes complete sense. I have always thought Beckett graders were tougher. As a teacher, I completely appreciate that. I would rather give a student a "B" because she earned it than an "A" for her self-esteem. If people know a teacher/card grader is more accurate and less forgiving, it makes that grade all the more meaningful. If it is all I can find for a specific card, I will buy the PSA. However, if a Beckett version is within 0.5-1.0, and it is lower, I will go for the Beckett every time. I am not at all trying to sound like a commercial because of whose board this is. This is my honest opinion. RE: PSA to BGS - alanch - 12-23-2012 Pretty consistent with being 0.5 apart. RE: PSA to BGS - nineof - 12-23-2012 I like that you converted them. BGS slabs just look better, to me at least... RE: PSA to BGS - englandhousehold - 12-23-2012 That's cool I always wondered how accurate the grading was. I have a stack of Cutlers I would like swapped so that's make me feel better on cracking them. RE: PSA to BGS - joe callahan13 - 12-23-2012 It's actually basically the same, which is what I would expect for the most part from PSA to BGS or vice versa. (Keep in mind a PSA 10 and a BGS 9.5 are the same thing.) So you have one that gained a half point, 2 that were reduced a half point, and the BGS 9.5 which stayed the same. I would love to see this done with GAI or GMA or one of those, hahahaha This is why I stick to PSA, BGS, or SGC graded cards if I buy a graded card, although I prefer not to. If it is graded by anyone other than those 3, I will just keep looking for a raw version. RE: PSA to BGS - giantfan270 - 12-23-2012 Yup. Pretty much as I expected. I was hoping for a 10 on the PSA 10 but no such luck. Thanks for looking, now I'm glad I posted them. Merry Christmas! RE: PSA to BGS - bostonsports1 - 12-23-2012 Good to see they were both pretty close in range. I like BGS for new stuff and PSA for vintage. Like the Csonka and Simms I woulda kept in the PSA holder, still sweet either way! RE: PSA to BGS - branesergen - 12-24-2012 Hmm makes me actually consider crossing over my 10's. Never really wanted to cuz I would hate getting a BGS 9 back lol Glad you did well! |
