Seller reference/review needed

If you crossed hundreds from bvg to psa and got no evidence of trimming you either were buying primarily collector or low grade cards or sent in the few hundred that actually aren't trimmed or sheet cut. They are getting better but still way to much out there in high grade bvg/bgs holders with trimmed edges in my opinion. Of course you can find the occasional card like the Louis talked about above, but there is usually a reason someone leaves money on the table.

Not to mention just overgraded (in my opinion).

For me personally, and for what I collect, I trust BVG much more than PSA.

But there is no way I agree with Leon on this.

with the way psa is dominated the hobby ..if you see a card that's 1000s of dollars you have to assume that the seller tried to have psa grade it the same..

since you can submit to psa with a minimum grade requirement or get it returned, it would make no sense that they didn't try to do it..

maybe 5 years ago you could get a similar bvg 8 price to a psa 8 price from a buyer out there..but I don't think there are any other buyers out there to hold out having it cross graded and incurring the fees for..

now lower dollar cards..thats different
