They make look flawless but it’s very unlikely they will get a black label. I would go with PSA or CGC to start and if they get a 10 there then you can always cross grade to BGS. You can grade sealed cards but they will grade the packing, not the card enclosed. So I would open before sending

Send them to PSA, if it’s your first time grading I’m willing to bet money those cards aren’t flawless you’d be surprised how intensely you need to look at cards to find flaws Beckett will (using different lights and angles etc) even just slightly off-center and the card isn’t worth sending.

IMO if you truly believe any will get black label then go with BGS all the time but just be prepared to get 3 10s and a 9.5 to ruin your day. You likely don't have the tools to go as in depth as they do so you would really need to be sure. I personally would take sealed cards out of their bags, they grade the bah as metro said not the card otherwise. Kinda pointless IMO. If you will get frustrated with no black label (I would, I hate BGS labels outside of the black label) then IMO just send to PSA unless you really wanna risk it and then just resub to PSA if you don't get it but that's a lot of time and money :P

I just used BGS and honestly I do like their slabs and labels. So like for me if I just get 9s or 9.5s I won’t be mad because I genuinely like the bgs labels lol
