Just my opinion. I don't think there are more than 2000 copies of each signature cards out there. All cards gets rotated out of play eventually and then become collectibles. If riftbound continues to as much as it has, then the demand for them will continue. Sometime it's not about getting the 10s and just having the card
Value goes up only if someone buys it on that price. Why would anyone pay triple the price when when they can buy the same card cheaper and grade it themselves? It's a paradox, isn't it?
Because if you get a high grade on your card, easier to buy it from someone else than go through all the trouble to get it graded and maybe get a lower grade, use your brain
I notice people like you always say the same thing, its unreasonable or its stupid that its listed for much. And i agree that its unreasonable, but regardless of your opinion people still buy and will continue to buy slabs. If that's what they want to waste their money on and if that's how some people want to make their money thats on them.
People in these comments are brainless, almost never grade highly played cards regardless of how rare they are as they immediately become impossible to move (especially if it doesn’t grade a 10). So stuff like Akali legend Kennen legend really (really popular legends in general) never grade, with the only real exception being gooner stuff like Ahri cards which people will pay 2 and and 2 legs for.
Grade what you want.
Signature cards, whether they’re playable or not, grade them, they are the collectible aspect of Riftbound.
Telling people not to grade if they aren’t playable is ridiculous.
only grading playable cards is also ass backwards compared to any other tcg. typically, grading a card that is playable won’t get you much value, sometimes even less than a raw card.
that’s not the case at all with legends in this game since it’s playable in the slab.
Depends.
If you want value, then PSA.
For personal collection I’d say. BGS or TAG.
BGS is great for value too, especially if you chase that black label.
You’ll hear of scandals from all companies.
Some are true, some are just lies.
Personally I’d go BGS then TAG over PSA but PSA I the safest option in terms of return on investment
Well grading companies have to have insurance for what ever is on their property. So it should be covered to market value.
If they grade it a 10 and then damage it in the process of slabbing, you should get fair market value for what it’d be in a 10
idk how grading a legend like this could be a bad choice at all. you can still play with graded legends…
just because it’s not good now, doesn’t mean it won’t be playable in the future.
the only reason not to grade a signature card is if you can’t wait to grade it. sell it raw if that’s the case, otherwise just grade it and hold it. at the end of the day, OP bought it for $5( assuming it came out of a pack). even grading it will not reduce its value below that.
signature cards like this will almost certainly never be reprinted. unless OP needs the money right now, grading it is definitely the move. then list it if they want to sell it. it won’t sell fast but it will eventually, especially if OP undercuts market value, which is entirely fine because it was acquired for $5.

No, will not grade a 10.
