I agree. In my case it was 100% my fault. I spent $100 on a card without doing the research I should have. I got exactly what I deserved, learned from it and made sure that mistake never happened again (we need another thread for all of the other one time mistakes!).

Honestly, I don't see what the problem is.

Dan,
I hope you realize my post was a tongue-in-cheek reference to a thread this week regarding auction houses and max bids. No, it wasn't your fault or at a minimum it is very easy to see how you would be mislead with BCCG's joke of a grading system. Jeff


.....and Richard some cards are simply more than a sum of their parts. That's the nicest "10" I have ever seen.

[DanP]

Jeff, yes I followed that other thread also.

However, I do believe it was my fault. Blaming someone else doesn't make any sense. It's easier to make sure it doesn't happen again if I take the hit!

Has anyone seen the "Create-A-Card" from Beckett?

Go to post #23 on the attached thread for a previous response from a Beckett employee (GehrigFan) regarding BCCG.

By the way, I had a room mate in college who, after 8-10 beers, used this same numerical system to grade women.

Nothing lower than a 5. Lots of 8's and 9's (to him anyway.)

The response by the Beckett employee states that the BCCG service was put in place to protect the novice collector when in fact I believe it does the opposite.

That is the exceedingly rare die-cut parallel to the regular '14 Garter series. Anyway you cut it, still a beautiful card!

Needed to pop this to the top after looking at all of the awful BCCG cards on ebay. If anyone from BCCG is reading this, you really are down grading your reputation with this crap. You are miseading people with the number grades and people are paying extra for your inflated label. Not a real smart move in the long run for you. Just a thought from a concerned pre war buyer/collector....... Could buisness development respond to this for me please....BCCG
