This is from my own personal experience.
Pros of Beckett
Beckett follows up with the customer more than PSA.
Customer chat
Better Quality cases and grades but at a higher cost.
No membership so anyone can send themselves.
Beckett Black labels are worth a lot.
Cons of Beckett
There was a case of Beckett damaging a Hyper Rare Charizard but the reputable owner did not get any compensation even if he had paid for insurance and a faster turnaround.
Strict grading can be a Con.
There is a big value drop when most cards get a 9.5. People say a Beckett 9.5 is equivalent to a PSA 10.
Website is confusing for the new user.
Pros of PSA
Membership service allows for many people to work together when sending cards.
Annual Discounts
Cons of PSA
PSA gives most compensation in the form of vouchers which is a surprise to many.
Turnaround times are subjected to change and people will not be compensated.
Pack fresh cards can score 5s depending on how it was cut or produced.
Note: From my experience of cracking open Beckett cases, so far all the grades drop 2 levels when sent to PSA. Beckett 7 First ed charizard became a PSA 5 charizard. Beckett 9 1st ed Charizards became 8s and one got a 9 again. I will be adding more to this as I gain more experience. 02/06/02
Interesting, Thanks for info 😊 kinda sounds like unless you get a perfect 10 with Becket, PSA is the way to go ? 🤔
