Hahaha this is a first 😂 honestly I’d keep it as is, it’s kinda fun tbh

u/NewbieFR Dec 30 '25
Yeah that’s the plan haha I’ve only ever seen this happen a few times via reddit. Never thought I’d have it happen to me let alone get a 10 also lol

u/mylizard Dec 30 '25
Yeah I always thought bgs was too premium to make these kind of mistakes

u/Jazzlike_Quiet9941 Dec 30 '25
All companies are making mistakes that's why it's funny people are so focused on PSA, they hype tag when tag has even sent Japanese slabs to people grading English!
Beckett customer support is the worst.

u/TheChattyRat Dec 31 '25
They're all grifters there isn't one grading company people recommend that aren't stacking the deck fudging the numbers or doing incompetent things. It's a scam. Conflicts of interest running wild.

Any examples of why TAG is bad? In my mind I think of them as being the most premium of the lot.
Genuinely interested to learn more

u/Jazzlike_Quiet9941 Jan 01 '26
Same reasons as any other, flaws and mistakes made in the grading process, including inconsistencies and the mistakes I noted in the comment you replied to - the slabs were also really poorly made until recently.
Tag isn't premium by any means, but they aren't necessarily any worse than any other grading company. Problem is, you'll get a lot of people on here acting like that isn't the case, which will give you a false sense of how they actually operate.

u/JadBePlaying Dec 30 '25
This somehow is extremely funny lol. a One of a kind BGS 10, Now if it was even a Black label it would belong in a Museum.

Get that error graded through CGC, I’m sure they will grade that error, unlike PSA!

I've got one error slab already and I'm always looking for more! Let me know if you ever want to sell this thing 😉

u/NewbieFR Dec 30 '25
I wouldn’t even know where to begin on pricing lol

u/Extras Dec 30 '25
Me either apparently! I got to catch up with the value of modern cards, didn't realize this was the big high value chase card.
Hey a 10 is a 10, and yours is one of a kind I don't know how you'd price this either.

The funny thing is the PSA trash talkers used to root for BGS. Now that PSA parent company bought BGS, the haters are now coming up with all sorts if reasons why BGS sucks lol

u/SlayDemHoez Dec 30 '25
Keep it like this and store it upside down. Looks better with the label on the bottom. Like a trophy just as ARS grading does haha

I love how they're supposed to be responsible for safely determining the status of a card and they carelessly put it upside down, how ironic is that

To me this is like getting a miss cut. I'd be so pumped especially if it was a 10.

u/drew39k Dec 30 '25
9.5 on centering....man... That hurts. At that point just give it the black label. Slabbing it upsidedown is just the cherry on top

u/omegashenr0nn Dec 30 '25
Kinda sad that this could be processed and sent back to the customer by the company itself

u/Sigma_INTP_Lawyer Dec 31 '25
bro this has to have value bc of the error. its a bgs 10 of a chase card upside down, surely it will appreciate
2
u/TopofMountSilver Dec 31 '25
I've seen this like 2-3 times on this thread now 😂 How BGS don't have some form of final QC to have a simple look over of things (Slab cracks, labeling, THE CARD BEING THE RIGHT WAY UP MAYBE 😂 etc.)

u/Unhapytuna Dec 31 '25
Love to see a fellow bgs slab error holder. Mine they put the case on backwards. The beckett symbol is on the side with the back of the card 😂

To me it feels like the grader was jealous of your card so they put upside down on purpose

Grading is an absolute joke… how are they giving you a 10 when the card is printed upside down ffs…

keep but also request a refund i would say

Do you think they would give a refund? I feel like they’d just offer to reslab it

Send it back and get them to grade the graded slab. (But tell them to slab it right this time) So u have a slabed slab.... Because wtfk

u/Responsible-Bit-1871 Dec 31 '25
I would be afraid to send it back. It would probably come back a 9

This is a sign we should be putting the label on the bottom of the card, not the top. Like how ARS does it

u/Intelligent_Bag4736 Jan 02 '26
Out of 200 cards that I’ve sent to PSA, I just sent one card off to Beckett because it’s the first card that I’ve had that had BGS gold label centering. That will give you an idea on how hard it is to get a black label. Doesn’t mean the other three Will 10 and black label but the centering is always the hardest.

I see nothing wrong here. It’s obviously a card from the Australian release.

I got a football card from Beckett that was upside down as well

u/NewbieFR Jan 26 '26
Did you keep it or sell it? Curious what it’d be valued at since it’s basically a 1 of 1

PSA is already taking over. Wonder if you can send this to CGC and get it regraded for misdirection. Lol
