I saw elsewhere that CSG is using baggies for some cards. So beware using them if you want to go bagless.

Depends on if you prefer the aesthetic over the protection. As others have said, both PSA and SGC have tons of cards that noticeably "bounce" around inside their slabs. Now, unless you are routinely using your slabs as air hockey pucks it may be hard to actually damage cards this way - but still I have never liked the look of "movement" in a slab, or the thought that even if slight and extremely gradual - I am somehow further damaging cards in slabs like that by handling them at all.
While the BVG sleeve will prevent this particular issue, I would agree that the materials they use are cheap, older slabs generally get to looking like crap, and above all that is the problem that their grading is not in line with other TPG's here in the 21st century. My current vote is basically to keep still raw cards raw...

Yeah, the BVG slabs are probably the most protective of any of the major graded slabs, but I'm not crazy about the look either. I'm an SGC guy too. But those bvg slabs are thick and that plastic inner bag is added protection. Some cards do get damaged in psa or sgc holders, I've seen it happen.
Anyway, regarding whether it will crossover to an SCG 6, we'd need better scans to tell for sure, but based on your pics, I'd say it's unlikely. Maybe a 5 though.
