I've seen someone on the boards here do that, but it's a gamble. BCCG 10 just means, very loosly, "Mint or better", so, if their standards are strict, then you're looking at a PSA 9 or better card. However, I've also seen some pretty ugly cards in BCCG holders, so buy the card, not the holder.
If it's a high $$ card in PSA/BGS 9 or higher, you've got to ask yourself, why didn't they send it to BGS/PSA instead of BCCG?
A miracle, if it ever happened. If a card were Gem Mint or Pristine (as BGS calls it), they'd submit it under regular service.
Collecting 1970s Topps baseball wax, rack and cello packs, as well as PCGS graded Half Cents, Large Cents, Two Cent pieces and Three Cent Silver pieces.
most examples i have seen of people crossing bccg 10 to bgs is 7 to 8.5 range i have not heard of anyone getting a 9 or above. i like bgs but bccg is a complete joke that really gives them a black eye.
I sent a bcc10 1999 Bowman Chrome Refractor Josh Hamilton a while back that came back BGS 9 w/ 9 centering, 9.5 corners, 9.5 edges, 9 surface. I thought the card had an outside shot at a 9.5 and was .5 point away.
If we're talking about modern (post-2000) base cards of superstars that sell for $.10 or less raw, a significant percentage might cross from BCCG 10 to PSA 10. The problem is, most of those are the cards that don't sell for grading fees in PSA 10.

Random BCCG 10's, I would go with 1 in 250
