Sadly PSA continues to dominate the market and it is not because they do it better. Beckett and SGC continue to do things that encourage collectors and dealers to make PSA their grader of choice.

Ben,

Irv says it's undergraded.

Irv,

Just include that opinion with you submission and I see Kuzava in a BCCG 9 holder

After seeing Jolly's sweet looking, under graded, Gretzky above get a 10.5, my undergraded Kuzava should be at least an 11, maybe even an 11.5 now!
I think such a deserving card should now be called Better than Gem Mint, (BTGM) or a Platinum Gem Mint, (PGM). I mean, with the Super High Intensity Training that Beckett must have taken in order to have this new BCCG standard, I am not sure why they didn't take it to a much higher level?
