I heard from a friend the other day that sent in a 1951 Bowman Mays, graded BVG 6.5. PSA gave it an 8. Imagine that. That does amazing things for the value of that card. I guess its time to buy all nice looking lower graded cards and resubmit them all. Anybody have luck chasing this stuff?

If only it were that easy. It's not. Far from it.

Well, here they are. Just came in today. There are 3 total cards, all now graded PSA 6. One Clemente, 2 Koufax. I'm selling them now, Clemente for $3800, Koufax for $1200 each. Please let me know if you think the prices are good. Thanks again to all for the interest in this thread.[IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]

From what I remember, Beckett will only give a full grade, one half point higher than the lowest individual grade (Centering, surface, etc).

Not calling you or your friend a liar, but I'd like to see scans of the card in both holders.

Several years ago I had cracked a 1956 Mantle out of a BVG 4.5 holder and submitted it to PSA and got a PSA 7. The only reason it was a BVG 4.5 was because the centering grade was a 4.

Not saying it is totally unbelievable, it's just hard to believe that anything graded by BVG (Beckett) would grade higher with PSA.

Most of what I have learned, is most SGC and Beckett graded cards will almost always receive a lower grade from PSA, but I guess there are exceptions occasionally.

It seems roughly in line with what recent ones have sold for. But not that many people here are actively looking for one, most likely. On BST you often need to be patient, or cut the price substantially.

Typical Ebay. Some fool offered me $1400 for the card. I prefer selling on the board WAY MORE than I do on ebay. Talk about an unreasonable offer.

It's probably a board member that made that offer! Haha!
