How do you get a card graded by BGS?

Cardcollector07 · 03-02-2013, 08:29 AM

Like what do you need to do to send it and stuff?

I have 2 bowman chrome autos I want to get graded, thanks for your help!

You can participate in a BGS group submission hosted by a member here or go directly through Beckett.

There is info on the sheets (provided above) and a "payment" portion that requires you to enter in your info. In my case, I wrote down debit card info and once the cards were processed I could see that Beckett had charged my account the fees owed. Pretty easy really.

Group sub is definately best to go for 2 cards though, much cheaper, and the host does all the work!

I usually do it through Beckett online. Nice and simple.

Make sure those are updated prices as I think Beckett was supposed to go up on their prices but not sure exactly when.

Make sure the surface of your card is as clean as possible. So many times do cards grade 9.5's and 10's for centering, edges, and corners, but the overall grade is only a 9 because there were specks on the cards that could've been cleaned off. All you really need to use is a tissue or a multi-fiber cloth if you have one.

Good luck!
