SGC didn't become the #2 grader overall until the last couple of years. Maybe if you only look at pre-war, then sure, SGC has been #2 for about 20 years. That's because Beckett tried BVG and it flopped. But overall, when you include modern cards, SGC was never even close to BGS during the 2000s and 2010s. That includes both sale prices, and marketshare. It was post-covid when SGC finally overtook BGS in total cards graded per month.

Thanks for the explanation. I have never paid any attention to modern or ultramodern issues so I only noticed SGC and PSA slabbed cards and I avoided vintage Beckett graded material due to their grading sheet cut cards.
