Anyone prefer Beckett to PSA?

Beckett IMO has the best slab design, but the problem is it’s often poorly implemented. As others have pointed out, the inner sleeves often have issues and are sometimes marked to where it looks like something is on the card when there is not. If they could make the sleeves clearer and prevent junk from getting on them, I’d be more of a fan.

As far as grading, I think that in higher grades, the big 3 are actually pretty consistent. It’s in the mid- and lower grades that they start to differ, and I will say that I think Beckett - while not necessarily wrong, as it’s consistent with how raw cards used to be graded before TPG’s - is somewhat easier on the lower grade cards. I’ve seen BVG 4’s where the card would be lucky to be a PSA 2.5. I’m sure that’s not accurate across the board, but it happens.
