Yep, it was not me but it has to be the worst card ever graded!

RE: 88 Donruss LaValliere
This is one of the most hilarious things I've seen in years. Thank you for making my night. I personally would buy that card just so I can pull it out and laugh from time to time.

Funniest thing I've seen on this forum. I almost spit Coke all over my monitor. Something tells me the card isn't for sale, but I would also be bidding on it.

I don't think I'd bid on it; it's too off-center.

You should see the Mike Vick "Dog Chewed" RC BGS 1. I thought i still had a picture of it but i can't seem to find it.


As far as the thread, i see nothing wrong with how the card is graded and labeled. Some people (not you in particular Bill) like to hate on BGS for any reason they can think of

[FUBAR]

I discussed that card on another forum about a week ago and i posed this question that no one could answer....

Beckett has sub-grades, and one of the sub-grades is for centering. Now your final grade from Beckett cannot be more then 1 above the lowest sub-grade.

So someone tell me how that card received at least an 8 for centering???

This is also the most valuable Ryan Leaf card on the planet for some reason!

Ryan Leaf has valuable cards?

Beckett made a name for themselves by being unreasonably tough on modern cards. I'm surprised they changed that part of their strategy. People know they changed their standards. I see BGS cards advertised as "old holder" and they seem to sell for more.

I guarantee you because the card is labeled as "miscut" they didn't take the same centering standards into consideration as they would with a "normal" card.

Actually the head grader of BGS is a member here and if he sees this thread i bet he will say the same thing.

I just find it strange as I have never seen BGS use a "qualifier" before. I know PSA has been doing it for years.
