    If your looking for value down the road, then PSA is the choice.

    I have to imagine if you're coming to the PSA board, that you're looking to confirm PSA as your choice. I'm fairly new myself. People are nice here, but I can't imagine you're looking for an objective opinion on that question. It's like asking an American what the greatest country in the world is. Look, each of the three major companies has their own merit. I recommend trying them all yourself and making your own decision.

    I wonder if they ran out of bandwidth over at the Beckett boards?

    To be honest, I say PSA holds the most value overall while BGS probably has the best value out of modern ( mostly 2000-present). I only own one, but it seems like SGC is the way to go as far as pre war cards (all the series like t206, t211, etc.).

    So it is settled
    SGC for Pre-War
    PSA for Vintage
    BGS for newer 2000-Present
    GAI for Beer Coasters
    GEMMINT for paperweights

    sgc is much better alternative than bgs my friend.

    plus their grading scale is almost... "consistent"?

    I would adjust your scale a little. I would say SGC and PSA for 40's and 50's and PRO for lining the bird cage

    It's simple.

    ask the PSA boards = most will say PSA
    ask the BGS boards = most will say BGS
    ask the SGC boards = most will say SGC
    ask the net54 boards = most will say SGC

    Why don't you go join a corvette or camaro forum and ask whats a better car a corvette or camaro or a mustang and see what they say.

    These threads always make me laugh.
