If you go to ebay and type in BGS you get 5,239 hits = hockey/baseball/football. If you do the same thing with PSA you get 25,590 hits. The bottom line is that PSA is 5 times more popular on ebay than PSA. It is very difficult to get a becket grade of 9.5 X 4 or better. That is all that I would collect. Many people do not collect beckett because it costs a lot to get the card graded and then it comes back with a real weak score.


Also, the economy is weak and for many people it is easier to give up purchase of baseball cards than food. This is not a good time to be a seller. It is a better time to be a buyer.

I have found that many people that collect a specific player will not collect graded cards. As an example, how many people besides you and I, that participate at this fan site, would bid on a Juan Gonzales graded PSA 10 card? I have 287 different PSA 10 cards. I have 6 BGS graded cards with 9.5 X4 or better. I have 9 SCG cards with a 98 score. How many are you up to?
