Mixed bag.

Their holder is insane--Fort Knox compared to the others.

The card condom on every card can make it difficult to view and scan as compared to other services.

Grading is inconsistently consistent. They are less adverse to minor damage than PSA. A card with a corner ding that would get a 4 from PSA will get a 6-6.5 from BVG. The reality of the grade IMO is somewhere in between.

The subgrades for higher grade items are interesting in that they give you some idea of what the graders focused on.



The branding is very confusing. BVG, BCCG, and now BVA too.

The new black label for their pristine grade is nice idea



I am waiting for the one that goes to 11.
