Poor all around
Product is pretty poor. Quality control issues galore - to smudged printing, out of order pages, and misprint pricing errors. Grade - F.As for overall pricing, grade C. Positive is it’s the only place to find so many prices and set lists from each year. Though it has many problem areas that make it almost useless: updates to the current market have a lag of about 2-3 months for new content and up to a year for anything older to finally be reflected. Products are left out of the guide, heavy focus on high end content (no prestige, complete, collectors choice, older spx etc). Pricing errors rampant (would it hurt to proof read before publication). Lastly, and most troubling. Hobbyists and card shops no longer use beckett but instead rely on ebay for pricing.I’ve always enjoyed going through the beckett guides but this last year has forced me to lose all confidence. It just doesn’t reflect the actual market.Overall grade - D
