Something fishy here. Beckett 5 is an Excellent. I don't know if they grade cards at
point five; maybe Mark Gehrigfan can weigh in. Seller should know better. I was impressed with the Beckett crew at the Chicago National; just like SGC they have an Avis We Try Harder spirit and I think they will gain a respectable place in the vintage side of things. Their holders will stop a bullet, too.

Edited after reading Brian's post: Wasn't aware of the distinction between BCCG and BVG; that's kinda stinky.
