I stumbled on the fact that my BCCG 7 Leaf Valiant Black Anthony Rendon is listed on BGS's population report. In my opinion, it would be an EGREGIOUS error on BGS' part to skew their population reports by lumping in the BGS grades with the, by design, inferior BCCG graded cards.
To prove/disprove this, I looked up BCCG 10 cards on eBay and tried to find a unique one. The one i found was a 2008 Bowman Chrome Prospects Sergio Romo base, not because it's unique, but because not many would be graded. Looking up the card on the population report, I see this:
Now, looks shocking to me that out of 26 total graded cards, that 24 of them graded a BGS 10 Pristine!!! However, it's much more reasonable that BGS, in their infinite wisdom, lumps BCCG 10 "Mint or Better" cards in with the BGS 10 "Pristine" cards on their population report. In my opinion, this revelation (or maybe this is only a revelation to me??) completely destroys the legitimacy of their population reports.
