There is quite an extensive archive on this site...atleast there used to be?!?! A quick search is always a good idea prior to starting such a thread. I'd guess you'll find many...many threads on the TPG's.

This topic does get discussed quite a bit.

For T206, most of the folks on here prefer SGC for their graded cards, and cite to more consistency of grading and better/friendlier customer service.

The PSA supporters tend to cite higher prices realized at auction, and better attention to things like set registries.

Beckett does good work as well, but many people dislike the plastic baggies that come inside the capsule, since it detracts heavily from scanned images.

As far as grading is concerned, my experience has been SGC and PSA part ways in the grading range of 4-5-6. I have seen too many PSA 5s with wrinkles; yet a PSA 5 will be stricter on sharpness of corners than SGC is.

I think BGS is the most consistent... But their cases are hard to crack open

I agree by far. All these battles over who is better, but they all have their upsides and downsides. These graders at these companies are human so they are bound to make some human errors.

Although if I was to submit I would go with PSA for postwar, BVG for Modern or PSA, and SGC for prewar.
