    Info on card grading

    My collection dates from 1956 to 1998. I've stoped collecting for a while and now I see that card collecting has changed. Its not about collecting sets it all about autogragh cards. In saying all that, I have cards that I would like graded and there are a number of choses. Which one is best. PSA, BCCG or PRO grading system. I see the prices to grade are different but which is best.

    Beckett grading is the best to get.

    If you go with Beckett, stay with their BGS service (for 1981 and up) or their BVG service for vintage cards. The BCCG service does not offer the internal sleeve protection and the cards are not graded with the more thorough BGS/BVG standards.

    For older cards, go for PSA. For newer cards, go for BGS.
