Results! 🤯 PSA to BGS crack out REVEAL! 23 card order submission 🔥 Part 2. Sports Cards grading

Results from my PSA to BGS crack out 23 cards sub grading order 👍

[@blakeramone]

Sub grades are the best parts of BGS slabs to me, but really appreciate the science experiment and sub fees you went through to make this! Glad to see so many of these from older vids get the grades they deserve.

[@littlevictoriessportscards197]

I agree with ya…subgrades are the best part about Beckett. In hindsight I probably should have got them. I was just being cheap at the time, and felt most of the cards just weren’t high end enough 🤪 And I agree, it’s great to see some of my older submitted cards in the correct grades 👌 Thanks as always!

[@PristinePaper]

Wow 100% grade bump?! Incredible, really makes you reconsider a PSA submission compared to BGS or SGC

[@littlevictoriessportscards197]

It’s so crazy how different the companies grade. Nowadays you really have to think about which grading company a specific card would grade best with. So crazy. Thanks so much for the view, and the support always 👌

[@thememefactory8108]

I feel that it’s the new graders that are giving the lower grades. If I were to start there and work, I would want to make sure when they look at my work they see that I’m harder than easier and wouldn’t give excess gem mint grades to everyone. I think the older graders are the ones that let slight imperfections slide as they know what production flaws aren’t the fault of the customer.

[@colbybrand5326]

This shows that PSA is doing what people claim, they grade down to grade fast. This gives them the benefit of looking like a harder grader when really they are just the more inconsistent grader. I read that PSA averages like 10 seconds a card. That means they are not louping cards. The graders are simply glancing quickly at cards in this price range and slapping fast grades that are more illogical. I have found BGS to be the most accurate by far!

[@littlevictoriessportscards197]

I really hope your 10second statement isn’t true 😳 That would be crazy, and they would definitely lose my business if they did that. I’m assuming they spend more like 1 minute a card, hopefully 2 minutes. Thanks for the view! 🙌

First I have seen someone return labels to PSA to have deactivated from registry which good practice. You should put a note in that you had them correctly graded through BGS and the each card grade difference to show them how much inconsistencies they have as result of inexperienced graders. Well done on true estimated grades vs actual with BGS. Unfortunately most were push on value increase even with higher BGS grade by the time you factor in additional grading fee. I know that was not the point and more about principal. Glad you did get few with very nice $ gain so overall a win in the end. If only Nat Turner saw your video! Thanks for well put together video

[@littlevictoriessportscards197]

Yeah, unfortunately most were just a push, but like you said it was more about principal 👌 I wish Nat would watch KZbin psa reveals…I actually think he could gain a lot of knowledge to better his company and future of grading. Thanks so much for always appreciating my vids! 🙌

This type of video is really valuable for folks that seem to think a single opinion from PSA is final. They make more mistakes every day than the other big companies (maybe just because of volume) and boy are they sloppy. Nice BGS returns here, they seem reasonable. Very VERY bush league that BGS charges more for the subs to be put on the slab, it’s a joke, but hey, still look good.

[@littlevictoriessportscards197]

Agreed….BGS shouldn’t charge more for adding subgrades! They need to lower their overall prices, and grading without subgrades shouldn’t even be an option. I do love the look of their slabs too 👌 Thanks as always!

Every Reveal video including mine of PSA is being very harsh. I noticed all my cards /5 or /10 is getting a lot of 8's or less. I'm the toughest critic of sending into PSA as I review under direct light along with close magnifying glasses at least 5 times before I send in. Can't believe I'd get 6's, 7's and 8's. All the new hires PSA gets in seems to be very inexperienced. Too bad there isn't a industry standard auditor to keep them legitimate.

When they talk about Gem Rates , does that include BGS 9.5 ? I feel that PSA give out more 10's than anybody else but maybe not more Gems. I have watched a lot of reveals from all kinds of graders and no doubt , in my mind , PSA give out a lot more 10's. Numbers can be twisted around with misleading Gem Rates. Case in point , what does PSA give a 9.5 card, a card that's almost perfect ? We know that BGS gives it a 9.5 so , is a PSA 10 really a 10 ?

[@littlevictoriessportscards197]

If grading through Beckett then a 9.5 is considered gem mint. And included when talking gem rates 👍 I personally feel like PSA does not give out more gems than other companies. People just grade with PSA 12x twelve times more than the other companies, so you just see more 10’s. And I’d say 80% of the time PSA gives a ‘9.5’ card a mint 9. And 20% of the time they give it a gem 10. Thanks for watching! LV

Sub-grades could’ve helped out with your confusion

[@littlevictoriessportscards197]

Thanks for the view and comment 🙌

Where are the sub grades bro.

[@littlevictoriessportscards197]

Nowadays you can chose either with subs or no subs. It was nearly $5 per card cheaper to go with no subs, so I was cheap at the time and chose that option. Thanks for the view and comment! 🙌

[@sweetswing1]

From 5 to 9.5 or 6 to 9.5 lol, psa come on

[@littlevictoriessportscards197]

Yeah, that was pretty ridiculous 🤣 thanks for the view and comment!

That no excuse PSA has to many variables POP Reports there involvement with Auction house there own Vault. I used to get 40-45 percent with modern cards now it’s 20 percent. They want to control the card market so goodbye to these people I think it’s time for all of us to wake up and leave PSA behind

[@littlevictoriessportscards197]

I still can’t believe that PSA 5 became a BGS 9.5 🤪 Grading is wild, but I still love it. Thanks for the comment and watching 👍

[@certifiedvintagetreasures7653]

I would never send the tags back ulless they paid me for each one.........

[@littlevictoriessportscards197]

To each their own. They are your cert tags, so you don’t have to. I just know that I personally will always send them back in 👍

[@bourbonbeltcards6392]

It’s a shame we have to play these little games with mis-graded PSA slabs. And they claim two graders look at every card. BS

[@littlevictoriessportscards197]

Agreed, ugh. And these lil games are expensive 😬 I’m thinking things will change soon, or at least grading costs go down. Thanks for the view and comment!

[@michaeldenzer6024]

Psa is rushing too fast only to screw up grades! Bad business...

[@littlevictoriessportscards197]

Yeah, I really wonder how long they spend grading each card. One minute, two minutes, 30 seconds?

[@michaeldenzer6024]

Psa has bad management training grading practices

[@jimbriggs8648]

All subjective. FCG is $14 a card and back in 10 days, those Beckett slabs are dreadful

[@littlevictoriessportscards197]

Grading is definitely subjective 😬 I’m probably one of the few, but I actually like BGS slabs. Thanks for the view and comment!

[@justanotherprouddad1391]

Beckett makes the best looking slabs & is very consistent in grading in my experience. Never heard of fgc

[@JC-pu7gi]

PSA are not trustworthy of your business PSA =Please Submit Again I’m done working with these unethical company

[@littlevictoriessportscards197]

Overall they’ve treated me well over the years, but I can understand people’s grievances. I think all the grading companies have their own flaws. Thanks for watching! I appreciate it 👍
