I have had a PM noting that it depends on WHEN the card was graded. I'm asking about, TODAY, something graded and slabbed very recently.

-If it was 10 years ago, I would have said: PSA
-If it was 5 years ago, I would have said: SGC
-Today, I would say SGC by a hair.... PSA and the new guy, CSG, close seconds.

BGS was never the toughest grader -always the easiest, and therefore often have the poorest looking 9's (7-8s if you sent same card to other TPGs). But I will say BGS seems to be the most consistent, i.e. haven't become insanely strict like the others after 2019.
