Morris has successfully built a brand around the strong filtering of altered cards as well as applying tough grading standards to the raw cards that do put out there. As such, they have become in many ways the leading standard for raw vintage pricing on eBay and they routinely get top dollar. And so I'm not surprised to hear about you not winning 17 of 19 with them -- it aligns with my own informal research.
No critique of Beckett Marketplace since I don't use them, but for cards you're buying on eBay, especially raw ones, I can't imagine a better tool to use than eBay sold prices on the specific card you are after. Granted this is tougher with more obscure cards.
