CGC is the only one that didn't go full woke and still grades the 7 cultural sensitivity cards, so to be consistent my graded cultural sensitivity cards, I now grade my remaining sets with them.

@christhemagnif Ай бұрын

Yes that’s a fair point. I’ve got my ‘sensitive’ Arabian Nights cards in BGS slabs from the before times, but I think this is an important point for the future.

@vintagemagic Ай бұрын

interesting!

@oldbordergeek 20 күн бұрын

but they are trash so the grade has no meaning... srry just open some of their slabs and take a look.

I think you make a great point about the changing of the guard at Beckett. The knowledge transfer may have not been well preserved and they’ve been through several management changes in the last several years. Seeing CGC climb to 5x TCG grading (and maybe the Pristine 10 Lotus sale @ $3M) could have made them see the light. Their new pricing and marketing efforts might help, but they have a ways to go to earn back community trust. That being said, newer TCGs like OP and Lorcana are using BGS (still less than PSA/CGC) so maybe there is hope.

@vintagemagic Ай бұрын

yeah, the trust off with bgs, but what they do to lose the trust?

@suigenerisgames Ай бұрын

@@vintagemagic Impossible grading periods (months to years), purposeful downgrading for population control, inconsistent grading, cheap labels bent across the middle, aging submission system, ZERO customer service, expensive grading prices (recently adjusted), lack of institutional knowledge across different TCGs, and questionable QA, to name a few.

If there is one thing I know about TCG's, the people making content always have some sorted of vested/financial interest in the alternatives lol

i agree, but i don't on this one. i'm making any video for my opinions and enjoyment. not doing the rudy thing for money purposes.

Bgs management fumbled at the 1 yard line. They were ready to change to the CGC scale and got scared. The lack of vision, proper introspective analysis of their business and acceptance of status quo has them becoming Mr Irrelevant. That is sad because 90% of my collection is BGS.

@vintagemagic Ай бұрын

hmm interesting. yeah. there hasn't been a big news issue with BGS right? it must just be market sentiment? I think if sportscards (the core business) doesn't yield bgs card premiums then people will switch.

Very informative video. Rebecca Guay's art has been taking my breath away (literally) since 1996's Alliances & Mirage stellar pieces: Kaysa, Sustaining Spirit, Asmira, etc. Regarding grading, I still like the look of the Beckett metallic/foil labels...Looks like they're serious about what they're doing. CGC still looks low-budget to me. But the market is what the market is. Can't change that. Thanks again, Daniel!

I love MTG art and will eventually get into collecting it. I have a couple sketches but I really like the actual paintings and finished product. My buddy that owns a pawn shop has some old art and sketches I think from around Alpha/Beta and Arabian Knights and I know it's worth a lot.

thanks bro! miss seeing you around.

To be honest I kinda like the PGC slabs better than the others.

@vintagemagic Ай бұрын

only the slabs? how about the quality of grading?

@mfdoom1898 Ай бұрын

@@vintagemagic don't know enough... I personally don't grade cards or buy them. The ones I've seen though we're spot on grade wise, as for asthetics they look better than the others.
