Would you rather... 2 Gold auto BGS 9 vs. 1 PSA 10?

[flightposite]

Which would you rather have, two BGS 9 gold autos (slightly OC) or one PSA 10 gold auto (say total BGS 9.5/PSA 10 population is 5-7)?

PC or investment?

PC. I can't decide. I'd sure like two of them, but a perfect looking one is pretty nice, just not sure it's worth the price.

There are many PSA10's that would cross over to BGS9's.

PSA is pretty lenient with their strictness.

Its a tough call, but depending on how badly centered the BGS9's are (are they 8.5's or 9.0s), id probably lean towards them.

I was in a similar situation.

For around 450 I could get a TT Miguel Cabrera RC Auto BGS 9 or 2 Raws

I went with the 2 raws

I know it is not bgs 9 to perfect condition, but still similar

either way I could not afford the PSA 10
it sold for 1k


by the way, to the OP, love your sig

I think it depends on the set. BGS 9.5 on chromes are somewhat common so I would take. However, if it is PC I might take the BGS 9.5 since you are not looking to sell. Also if the set is condition sensitive and BGS 9s are somewhat common and BGS 9.5s are very rare then I would for sure take the 9.5.

If it's PC, you have to go with the 2. You can always upgrade later, and if you need to move one to get another PC item, you still have one left.

Bo, without seeing the cards I say go for the two BGS 9s. However, centering is the most important thing to me for my personal collection. If you want to PM me the scans of the cards, I could give you a better opinion.

I am also assuming that the price is similar for either purchase.

I'd like to think the difference between BGS 9 and PSA 10 is a *little* closer than that...

TBP has spoken.


Guy knows his slabs, I'd stick with what he says.
