BGS to PSA?

GoldKing · 10-23-2017, 04:51 PM

I just got 4 Mike Trout Updates 2 are 9.5s and 2 are GEM 9.5s.
I am wondering if I should send the BGS cards to PSA in hopes that they would 10. Has anyone every sent 9.5s to PSA and had success? I know BGS is a lot more "strict" on their grading from people who do tons of grading. Any information is greatly appreciated!!

Im asking because there is a decent price increase for having a PSA 10 over BGS 9.5

Yes, send em in!

Worst case, you could try doing a min grade of 10. I believe (could be wrong as I have never done it) they won't crack it if it fails the grade.

9.5 GEM all grades are 9.5 or 10. Normal 9.5 is ones that has one 9 on it

Yep, send in on a crossover attempt with a minimum grade of 10.

I think he was just trying to say True Gem 9.5 vs Gem 9.5

definitely crossover to PSA

I've crossed over bgs 9s to psa 10s and have had bgs 9.5s be deemed 9. Grading is subjective. It can cross over or it won't. Best thing to do is inspect the card and send it based on your thoughts, not based on the sub grades.
