Sample mockup page for the All New Beckett Graded Card Registry

It would be cool if they accepted grades from all 3 of the major grading companies.

Trust me, that was on my wish list, but couldn't make it happen.

I like the look. I think I would've preferred scroll bars to the See More button, but not sure if that's possible. Also wondering if all the different types of registries besides Players Sets are in the Total # of Set Registries link. For example, I know that Hall of Fame registries are very popular. Since Beckett is associated with JSA, it'd also be nice if there a HOF autograph registry or the like were possible. I'd definitely be interested to see the individual registries when it is available. I like the ability in the PSA registry to have multiple pictures so that you can include both front and back scans of a card.

Like another board member has said, it'd be nice if you could include multiple grading companies and even raw cards in a custom registry that accepts pictures, so that you could basically move your entire collection to one place.

Interesting... we went back and forth on that. Nothing is settled for sure yet.

There are 4 Types of Registries - Sets, Players (Basic), Players (Master), and Custom. With Custom, you can create ANY Registry you wish to create and make it either public or private. There is no limit to the type of Custom Registries you can do. You can make a Custom Registry of the "Best Big Hair Cards of the 1970's" if you want.

Yes, you can upload both front and back images.

Looks clean, organized, and well thought out. Good luck.

Hi Mark, I appreciate all of the hard work and expense that you and your staff are putting into this project.

I see that you have separate serial number look ups for BGS and BVG products. What about when searching for a pop report for a particular set? Will both BGS and BVG show up in a search or will we need to perform separate searches for each product?

In the past I have had a couple of BVG cards that I could not locate on your site. The cards would not show up under player searches, set searches, year searches, or serial number searches. I wish I still had these cards so I could check them out on your new site.

Will you have a procedure in place for collectors to report errors and omissions in case some of the set info is not correct? My main concern is that the information is accurate.

Thank you very much for going forward on this project.

.. Beckett is pure heaven to us centering weenies ; subgrades make my knees weak....

Thank you, Rick! Those serial number lookups are only for when we originally had just BGS, then around 2000 I think(?) we changed pre-1981 cards to BVG. The cards not pulling up either way means there is a database error we need to correct on them (like the job was not properly marked as shipped).

When adding to the Registry itself, you'll just type in the serial number and it *should* intuitively know what Registries it is eligible for.

Yes, we would treat any errors on a card by card basis. Bear in mind, there are cards and such that I approve to grade because I know they are real and people collect them, but Beckett doesn't catalog.Very rare, but it happens. Things like my 1942 Spanish Editorial Brugera Babe Ruth. It has to be entered into the Beckett PRice Guide first before being searchable.
