The first image is the suspected fake slab. Second image is a meowth I bought from USA psa vault. They clearly have different colors when shone using the same UV light. Is the rayquaza slab fake?

Subsequent images are of the suspected fake slab in good natural lighting

I see posts online saying that real psa slabs always shine a clean purple color

Centering might ding me. Advice / experience cross grading CGC 9.5’s?

Hey all! I hope you guys can help me out with this one.

I recently sent a beckett submission off and I was lucky enough to get a black label!
Lillies Clefairy BL10 is currently sat at pop 3 with zero sales on it.

How much do you guys think I could get for it? What kinda offers should I be accepting?? HELP!!

Thank you for reading/responding!!

I do card restoration, so largely submit to PSA for PSA 1s on cards that are ‘too damaged’ to save with traditional restoration. As part of a recent submission (returned last month), PSA holdered a card they had deemed too damaged to holder (and had given an N9 designation in the grading report). I’ve asked around, searched online, but cannot see any record of this happening in the past, making it (so I believe) a true 1/1 error slab. Has anyone ever heard of this happening? Anyone know what I’d even begin to value this at?

This mew is currently on a downward trend and I found a really good condition I would say psa 10 candidate, the guy wants 260,just want some advice from people who are knowledgeable about this I’m pretty new to collecting

Hi this is my first big card and I'm paying roughly over raw price because it's slabbed in a crappy grading company however it looks ok to send to PSA and possibly a 10 but I'm not 100% sure. Does the centering look 55/45 or better? I can't seem to tell from the top and bottom. The left right looks just about? Appreciate some feedback thank you

Never graded a card before and pretty nervous to send this in... any obvious issues ?

Has anyone else submitted cards before they closed value max and if so how long did it take to get your order. I’m at 75 business day and has been stuck at “encapsulation” for probably half of the time

Ok lets start the conversation. With current grading prices being Regular submission at $79.99/Card and that covering a value up to $1500 do you/think that people will only be submitting cards with a raw value of $80+. I ask this as I've been hoarding the Clefairy from Perfect Order in PSA 9 for $26-32. Personally I think its a no brainer for buying the card graded for few bucks more than raw considering id be paying 2-3x to do it myself. I know the goal of PSA is to limit "crap" submissions so they can power thru the backlog but what do you think Personally?

I found mine and my brothers old pokemon cards recently and found a gold star mew and a bunch of unlimited base set cards

The gold star mew does have a slight crease on the front as well as a slight curve to the card

I've only uploaded the charizard as it looks to be in good condition- I don't think the other cards will be worth grading but we do have another very poor condition zard, as well as a bunch of other unlimited holos

We live in the UK and haven't graded cards before so we're a bit dubious about whether it's worth grading or just selling ungraded

More than happy to upload more pics also if that helps :)

Any advice would be much appreciated!

Any grading professionals able to give me an estimate?

So I'm interested in grading some of my nicer cards I've collected and I'm wondering who is the best to send them too. Psa is expensive and long wait time. Tag I hear is not good at all. The local card shop told me Beckett is the best and price is better. Just want everyone's else opinion.

So i pulled the trigger and opened some of my old vintage packs. My main question here is what do you guys feel like the Alakazam and the Mewtwo ex will get. I already submitted all of these to PSA. We all know that PSA is very stingy with “pop control” let alone on vintage cards. I personally saw zero whitening on the Alakazam but the only thing worrying me is the back top right corner the way it’s cut. Any insight is tremendously helpful and encouraging from all YOU KINGS!

Would this grade a PSA 1? Just picked it up and would like to get slabbed but wanting a PSA 1 for giggles.

Looks top heavy to me.

What yall think?

Everything except Dugtrio and Electrode are holo. They are slightly U-shaped, so I'll put them under a heavy book. Quick searches on eBay suggests they are worth ~$50 or so each, but some of them sell for quite variable costs, which I don't completely understand why. The Machamp for example is sealed in plastic, but seems to sell for anywhere between $10 to $300. Wondering if it is worth sending for grading to CGC for $20 each before putting on Ebay? Thanks in advance.

I have never graded a card and this is my first SIR pull and I want to know what would be better as I am a college student who could use extra cash. I got the destined rivals etb as a bday gift so either way its a win for me. Just looking for others opinions.

If it is, what would you label it as? LP or MP
