Default BGS 9.5 premium? PSA 10?

What are your guys’ opinions on the Premium a true 9.5 holds over a 9 on a premium card? Such as on an SPA Lebron RC?

From what can tell it’s 1.5-1.6x the 9?

Thanks?

Also on Lebrons chrome Refractors a 10 seems to be worth almost 2-2.5x as much as a 9 for these type of cards? Is that accurate?

Thanks!

If your card is a BGS 9.5 with a 9 sub grade In most cases its no better than a PSA 9 thats just my opinion. It does have a lot to do with which sub grade is a 9. Centering 9 is not as big of a deal when comparing.

I agree it’s a scam. But if the card really is pristine (not over graded, not altered) and its an older card (15+ years) it should be worth more than a 9 with some issues (Centering, corners).

I know with all the grading fraud going accurate grades are questionable to say the least.

Out of all subgrades, I think edges carries the least weight.
I consider a 9.5 with 9 edges to be a gem card.
I’ve seen PSA 9s have terrible Centering.
I know it’s all subjective. Matters what the card looks like to the owner. Some flaws bother some, some don’t.

why do folks consider subgrades scamming? serious question because I actually really appreciate the added detail that a subgrade provides

I think the sentiment is in reference to grading in general.

Well, if we're being honest, it wasn't sarcasm on my part.

If a 9.5 Gem with one 9 sub-grade compares to a non sub-grade Gem 9.5, which one you will pay for more?

agreed, it also depends on the card, and how many BGS9.5 there is, let's say pop of BGS9.5 is only two and it's a older/rare card, I don't think the price would be much different imo.
