Quick Question About BGS/PSA

[Hess687]

Okay, so I, personally am not a fan of how a card looks in a PSA graded case and would much rather prefer BGS, but have always been told if the card is an older card it should be graded by PSA. Would having it graded by BGS hurt the value that much?

I am considering getting a card graded for my PC, but am always looking to flip for a higher grade down the road, is the reason why I ask.

I have been buying a lot of BVG of late, I have been finding I like the cases better and the BVG cards seem to be in better condition.

Unless you have blazer that can pull an 7.5/8/8.5 the money you would leave on the table between a BVG and PSA sale would be negligible. Might take slightly longer to move, but it's a popular card and average market for it is indiscriminate of the holder.
