being a portal for a consignor does not eliminate the inherit conflict of interest. i assume the amount of money that becket media makes during the transaction is relative to the final selling price. as a result there is incentive to grade a card higher and have it sell for a higher price. also, when the card is submitted there is a check box that states the card will be consigned to becket media auctions,correct? and if you can not tell an obvious trim from a scan perhaps you should not be grading cards in person either. many people on this board lost all respect for becket the way they handled the rebacked cobb. over grading and mis-grading cards along with a conflict on interest doesnt help their rep.
