Becket Raw Card Review lookup?
 

Hi, is there a Beckett Raw Card Review lookup? Similar to how you can lookup a normal slabbed card. Should I be at all concerned with legitimacy if the seal is not tampered with? I have not purchased these in the past. Appreciate any insight. Thanks

No. Yes, you should treat it like a raw card and do your due diligence.

I think here is a time limit on submitting RCR to guarantee the grade of the sealed card, but not sure what it is.
For instance a RCR from 3 years ago would likely require a re-grade and probably at additional cost. The card savers the cards are sealed in aren't hugely protective on their own.

You still have to pay to grade RCR's from last week or 10 years ago. No difference there...it's like a raw card. The only thing you don't have to pay for is the Auto grade.

I thought you just paid for encapsulation? The grade stood as long as there was no additional visual damage to the card.

I am looking at acquiring a Mike Trout Topps Update rookie graded 9.5 but by Beckett Raw Card Review. Do you think I should be at all concerned about fakes? I am thinking its not worth the hassle and might stay away.

That is very outdated. You have to pay the entire grading fee again, and it's been that way for at least 3 years according to posts I've read here.

Burn! So the only advantage is knowing up front what the card will most likely grade out at. But still sounds like no guarantee.

The grade isn't a guarantee but it's extremely likely that it will stand, assuming nothing was done to the card since the RCR.

Absolutely no guarantees. The grade could go up, down, or stay the same as the sticker. I've had all 3 scenarios happen to me.

Just send it in like a raw card. Expect the same grade, but not surprised if the grade changes.
