Hi all, I am new here and still checking out the layout, but didn't really see a grading section so I just put this post here. My main interests right now are 1971 topps/opc baseball and 1977 Mexican football, two really condition sensitive sets. What are people thoughts on grading cards like these, I am torn between Beckett and PSA and just wanna pick one and stick to it. Just wondering what peoples thoughts on each service are. thanks.

I'm not really an expert on grading, but i''ve learned that for older cards, PSA is the way to go for grading."The good kid from the mad city, holding a cereal box instead of a glock"

PSA IMO is more respected for older cards. PSA may be more cost effective.I collect a little bit of everything. But, if I never get back to you, your probably on Ignore!!

To me, it seems PSA is a more respected grading service over-all.......new or old cards.
I always thought it was funny when you see those GEM Mint 10's from those "other" grading co.'s where the card is all offcenter and has obvious corner /edge damage.
Currently looking for:
Football: The Gronk!
Basketball: Dennis Rodman, Scottie Pippen, & Michael Jordan, 90's refractors or #rd stuff, Damon Stoudamire, Penny, etc.
Baseball: Paul Goldschmidt & Mike Trout
+ HOFer slab bed or raw.
Collecting University of Arizona current and Alum players!!!
Go Cats!!!
