    Beckett has obviously set a secondary level of standards for high end Strasburg rookies. Given that the two high profile cards they've slabbed are both overgraded (the Superfractor's centering is over graded and the corners are over graded on this example), I can only assume that BGS has purposely done this to increase interest and bump submissions.

    The right corners may just be a trick of angles or color juxtaposition. I'm only 100% convinced the lower left corner is crap.
    Nolan Ryan & Edgar Martinez are my favorite players...

    It still cracks me up that they give the autograph a numerical grade.

    Would you give it a letter grade or are autographs beyond grading in your opinion?

    I still can't believe all the hype on this guy and his rc. When I had a few discussions with all the local card dealers in my area. They all say the same thing. "It's silly how people dumping 5 figures on the cards. The cards will be worthless in 5 years."

    well (deep hole they are digging) and noone up top to throw down a lifeline.
    Now is the time for whoever owns that PSA 8 Honus Wagner to send it into BGS for a regrade would bump to a 9.5. LOL

    This is where beginners and even older collectors say BULLshot and either quit the hobby or just start collecting nothing but raw material. I know I know buy the card not the plastic.
