Verified Trader,
I noticed last night that a bunch of BGS cards on ebay are missing the sub grades. Is this something they do now for cards graded 8 or less?
Dumb BGS question

Its a new service where you can pay less for a longer turn around time with no subgrades.

True. I've seen a few 9.5's with no subgrades printed on the labels.

Verified Trader,
Some of the old labels had the subgrades on the back. Or are these newer cards? Do you have an example of an auction with the "new" labels?

It's a newish service offered by Beckett.

Ughh...don't like this. Just seems like a way for Beckett to start offering the subgrade service as a more expensive "premium" service.

Verified Trader,
I don't see anywhere on the BGS submission form to select this service. The lowest service level is the non-guaranteed and the rules state the subgrades will not be provided only if the grade is an 8 or less. Has anyone here used this service, and can share any feedback?

For the non-sub service you need to arrange the order with one of their sales reps, found here:
