Actually, the answer is no. Beckett Grading Services is a division within Becket Media. BGS grades cards but does not run the auctions.

I understand and appreciate many will see little significance in this distinction, and that's fine by me. My point here was to answer the initial question as it was written, and the question named a specific division within Beckett, BGS. If the question was a more general "Does Beckett grade and auction cards?," my answer would be Yes.

If someone fallows up with, "So, David, are you claiming it's not a conflict interest to ...," I'll repeat what I just said: I was just answering the question as it was written.
