The only reason they're not exposed is because nobody submits to them for this.
But yes, they are still setting record prices with modern card grading because the buyers don't seem to know the whole story yet.

To me, Beckett is essentially irrelevant at this point. Their values relative to PSA are dropping all the time. Their grading on Star basketball is a joke, if only they weren't the only choice. They don't seem to have a clue what's trimmed, on a broad scale. Etc. So yes, the threads are about them too, but I don't care.
