So I see lot of grading services out there, from PSA to BCCG to BGS and so forth. I personally recognize the PSA slab to be the "best", but that's because I've collected autographed memorabilia in the past.
What is the consensus among collectors, or is there none? Is it possible to get something that is graded a 10 by BCCG, only to have it graded as a 9 by PSA?
Also, as a semi-related topic, do most conditions collector buy raw and submit themselves, or go after graded copies only? Is it virtually impossible to get a raw 10? You can check the centering / corners from a high res scan, but surface scratches could impact the grade as well, correct?
Thanks guys.
