Beckett use to have the 4 individual grades (corners, edges, surface, and centering) that would combine for an overall score, but stopped doing this a couple years ago for BVG. They still do it for BGS (modern cards) I believe. I thought it was a bad move for BVG to stop doing this. The four subgrades were great and I would like to see them reinstate it. Perhaps it added too much time for each submission? Anything on the label that would give a reason as to why it didn't receive a higher grade would make it a better system, IMO.

As a final note, I would like the TPGs to keep the grading objective and not bring eye appeal into the grade. Stick to the facts.
