OTHER Card Grading Companies....

CardboardnCoins · 05-09-2019, 11:36 AM

Hi Folks,
Aside from Beckett, PSA, SGC, GMA...what other card grading companies are there? I just keep turning up the same 4 names in searched on Google.

I have personal cards that I want to have graded and slabbed and I don't need anything fancy. Honestly...I'm looking for the LOWEST, and I know the lowest out of those 4 is 3.50, and that is actually too much for the volume I need to send, with the fact that they do not need to be presentable/fancy...
just want them slabbed with a grade..

Thanks!

OP also has private listings, if that was a surprise to anyone.

There was a startup company called champs. Years ago I had a couple graded and they were tough. I guess new kid syndrome. They didn't last long. Lol

Please see my past posts.

I don't care WHAT you have had experience with before...
I do NOT like to be lumped in....
it is insulting....and you could not be more incorrect

READ my question...I am looking for a DIFFERENT grading company LESS than what these 4 charge

Please read before putting the rage and anger from your every day life... dead end job, angry wife, nasty ex-wive, lousy kids, hemorrhoids, bad experience with bullies.....leak into your nasty and sharp comments

I'm not the one.....look in the mirror, get some therapy....do something.....but don't let your self-hate fog up my question...

I feel really bad for those folks that hide behind the mouse and keyboard because life is so bad that you have to jump on someone online...

Seek therapy.....

And for those that DO and HAVE answered my questions here...I commend and thank you! This is a great forum...but I guess you find these slugs anywhere now...

Why are all of your listings private?

We love to collect Baseball Cards and everything MLB.
We love the hobby and love Collecting baseball &
all sports cards. We are collectors just like you!

We offer cards made by all major card companies (Topps, Bowman,
Donruss, Panini, Score, Upper Deck, Pinnacle, Fleer, Flair, SPX,
Stadium Club, Flair, Finest, O-Pee-Chee, OPC & many more).

We cover within these companies, the brand Base sets, as well
as Archives, Archives, Update, traded, chrome, prospects,
minis, foil, rainbow foil, lots, rookie, stars, HOF, select,
hall of famers, megabox, refractors, parallels, RC, GU,
game used, Jersey cards, sets, Autographs, other
player autos (bats and balls), series, cases,
boxes & packs (sometimes) & much more.

Variations range from Base to Short-Print, SP, SSP, & all
kinds of Variations, Photo Variations, Errors,
Gum-Stains, High-Numbers, & much more.
Many cards come from a Set Break(s).

Some of the cards are graded, ranging from Gem Mint, to
Mint, Near Mint (or NM), EX, VG, and below. The
grading is done by professional 3rd party
companies, such as PSA, BGS or BCCG
(Becketts), GMA, SGC, or PGA.

As for Positions, we cover everyone equally: Pitchers, catchers,
outfielders, 1st Base, 2nd Base, 3rd Base, Shortstop, and
if you cannot find them, search by first base,
second base, third base, etc.

Teams? We cover all of them. The most popular are the Yankees,
Mets, Dodgers, Marlins, Cubs, Reds, Red Sox, Royals, Braves,
White Sox, Twins, Brewers, Cardinals, Tigers & so forth, from
both the National League and the American League.

Whether they are referred to as trading cards, & whether
they are from common players or from stars that win
the MVP or ROY awards or are voted as All-Stars,
these cards that come with Relics, Memorabilia,
or are just collectibles, limited or rare, bring
you in and make you part of the games,
either in the Major Leagues or Minors.
These are not toys anymore!

We come alive during Spring Training, thrive during the
All-Star Game, and savor the Playoffs & World Series.

And then there's all of this keyword spam in your listing descriptions.

From OPs website:

Looks like he has his own grading thing already going.

patchgenie · 05-09-2019, 12:33 PM

i would use bgs if i had to. psa has about as much credibility as bccg now.

KhalDrogo · 05-09-2019, 12:34 PM

I was interested in buying your GMA Pokémon card, but it’s sold out. When will you get some new ones in?

PSA has lost credibility lately, but BGS hasn't?

You can order this Tim Duncan card with a small crease for $33 from OP

yankee98 · 05-09-2019, 12:56 PM

You get what you pay for. The established companies have a better reputation that results in higher prices. Whether they deserve it is up for debate, but getting something graded by an alternative grader is worse than keeping it a raw card IMO.

And just my 2 cents but someone posting shady listings and engaging in keyword spam is much more miserable than someone calling that out.

Per my post above, if it is less than 1.8", it doesn't count.

monkeymcgee · 05-09-2019, 12:58 PM

That’s a lot of work for any card from 93 UD

Sorry, but call me picky, but I'm more of a 1.4"-1.6" range for my creases. It's a tough pass.

do people pay an additional fee to psa based on the perceived value of the card before it is graded? like an ohtani bowman chrome rc auto or something high value.

I believe so, but I haven't sent anything in myself in years, so I don't know the difference between the two there.

What does that have to do with credibility? They might be more expensive for cards like that, but that's a different thing.
