Some people-who are looking to sell their collections-have been told that baseball cards are worth more when they are graded. The professional card grading companies such as PSA, SCG & Beckett love to make this claim, as it is a justification for charging $5 to $15 to grade a common card!The real cost to have a card graded is usually $14 to $17 per card when you consider the overpriced shipping and insurance charges.or example, if PSA graded a card ExMt and we feel that it should be Nr/Mt-we will pay the NrMt price. If we agree, with the grade-we may pay a few bucks more (seldom more the cost of the grading!). Quite often we will remove the under graded cards from the PSA case to allow us to sell them for more money.
Take PSAâs standards for its Gem Mint 10 grade: âA PSA Gem Mint 10 card is a virtually [my emphasis] perfect card. Attributes include four perfectly sharp corners, sharp focus and full original gloss.GS 10 Pristine is the highest grade awarded by Beckett Grading Services, a division of Beckett Media, the same Dallas-based publishing firm that first began hawking price guides nearly 30 years ago in 1984. On their website, they describe the Pristine 10 grade as follows, âCentering: 50/50 all around on front.
