Thanks for that!
I was somewhat curious whether they’d have changed it to make it somewhat distinguishable from base unlimited’s entry ~ We know the cards have two discernible features: the 1999-2000 copyright and the lighter colour shades on the cards ~
Still plenty of time :3
Great news! I watched a PSA 8 1999-2000 Charizard end at around 1100 USD yesterday. That was probably a great deal for the buyer.
I saw that too, and also this:

too little too late
Wow, this is big. Time to go through my Base Set cards again! 
Was it Rusty that called it 4th print but later said that was incorrect and he shouldn’t have called it that?
I may be incorrect there
It makes sense to call it 4th print regardless of who said it. 4th print = 4th major version printed.
Offcourse there are some pedants out there bitching about that, because it technically isn’t the 4th print run, but I think most of us are able to compute why the title stuck. And the jury is still out.
Just as the people criticizing people for describing 1st ed base and shadowless base as separate entities. Everyone and their mothers know 1st ed base is just Shadowless print run cards with stamps on them. Get over yourselves.
Very smart business move, they waited until they jacked the prices of grading to announce 99-00 is recognised.
Is it possible to send in your already graded 1999-2000 cards to PSA and they will re-label them?
Yeah, even Ludkins spoke of that, given the base went through eight print runs and not four 
Even though I’d definitely prefer ‘Base 2000’ - and PSA have used the term in their response to me previously -, it seems as if they’re going with ‘Base Set 1999-2000’ ~
That sounds great to me! I much prefer “Base Set 1999-2000” over “Base 2000”, because I feel it emphasizes the royal bloodline of the set.
To me, Base 2000 sounds like something you buy at the hardware store to spray on your boat. It feels separate.
“… something you buy at the hardware store to spray on your boat.” 
I definitely agree but terms are inaccurate, as both fail to consider the fact that the cards are lighter in tone as well, the distinction isn’t just copyright based.
Is there any premium on value with the 2000?
Great news! I currently have about 20 Base 2000 cards at PSA (starters and non-holo rares). I sent them in knowing that they wouldn’t get a special designation. Well now they will.
Wow incredible! What the hell changed their mind it certainly wasn’t evidence lol
If I had to guess, I’d say CGC made them change their mind.
Competition is good.
Personally I think it was a mixture of COVID/lockdowns and CGC’s acknowledgement of the set ~
Yeah, CGC is grading everything right now.
I’m waiting for them to start grading code cards lol
Can’t wait for them to grade uncut sheets
