Are there a few Bowman breakers getting a huge bulk deal with BGS or is there something I'm missing here?

For a while PSA didn’t do a separate auto grade so BGS was preferred for a dual grade for the auto. BGS held about 90% or so value vs PSA. Only in the last 12 (or even 6) months has BGS values really #@#@#@#@ the bed.
So if you’re looking at the 2016 1sts back then a BGS 9.5/10 was almost the same as a PSA10 so it was fairly normal to go that route.
