Here's my thoughts on grading. The new company in town will be Beckett!!! No, I don't grade with Beckett, but I see the hand writing on the wall. Prices of Beckett cards are on the rise and quite often in line with PSA and SGC. Why? In the early 90's when all the shiney stuff came out all the new collectors went to Beckett. Now these collectors are much older and going back in time with their collections. Guess what? Most will stay with Beckett as they have been in the past. I'm an old man and won't be switching graders, but I see Beckett as the #1 grader in the future.
