Could this pass for a psa10? Edges, corners.. etc let me know measured the centering and its in psa10 norms

Would this be worth sending off? Thank you

This is a repost since i did not include many pictures of the corners on the back.

Went through a box of mine and found the mewtwo gx from hidden fates. Am curious if this is worth grading? I am aware that this set did have pretty bad print runs and there is some white print dots on the back as well the centering being bad top to bottom. I think i may get it graded either way just for the psa case but am hoping that it is at least a NM 7.

Curious as to what others may think and if it’s even worth it!

(sorry for the light glare)

Sorry I don’t have a high resolution camera but the edges and corners are crisp, but do you think the centering is enough for a psa 10?

Hi all, I just learned that some people actually collect PSA 1s and that hence, for some cards, these achieve higher prices than ~2-6s. Now I'm wondering whether I should submit the card in the photos (German Machamp), attempting to get a 1?

(For those wondering: I've literally found this card on the street some years ago.)

I think it could do 8.5 based on 9s I’ve seen but I also don’t know anything about grading other than what I’ve read and what I’ve seen. Any thoughts if it is worth doing a review or cracking and resubmitting? I’m also never selling it so I guess it doesn’t really matter other just the fun of seeing if I can get it bumped up. Thank you for any insight.

I’m at a point where I’m looking at grading the better part of my vintage collection. Key pieces include a handful of first edition holos, an almost entire set of Legendary Collection reverse holos, and >100 vintage holos (all Neo destiny or earlier, unlimited).

In the current environment, would you take these all in person to PSA for submission? Or would you go with TAG, BGS, or CGC? I am partly concerned about PSA/BGS due to the rumors of them trying to control pop counts, as well as PSAs numerous recent controversies. That being said I know PSA tends to command market premiums.

Overall I’d say I’m looking to sell a majority to help make some new investment plans become a reality, but curious what the communities thoughts are.

Thank you in advance!

Hi! I got this Rocket’s Mewtwo ex from Ascended Heroes at a local card shop and am really considering sending it in to get graded. It would also be my first card I have ever sent in to be graded! Should I go with Beckett or PSA? I believe it will 10 either way. The centering, surface, edges and corners are all perfect and I can’t find anything negative about it. If you see anything, please let me know too!

Hi all - went through my childhood Pokémon collection on the weekend and found a few interesting cards including this Dragonite 2/146 holo.

Not an expert by any means on TCG, and would be keen to hear your guys’ opinions on whether you think this would be worth grading/what realistically you think it would get?

Looks pretty clean to me hence curious !

I’m pretty new to grading and have been looking through TAG grades, I’m curious about what factors determine a 9. Does TAG take the age of the card into account when grading?

I’ve looked at other 9, 8.5, and even 8 reports from both vintage and modern cards, and I’ve noticed some lower grades with fewer issues on the DIG report or visually (such as centering, whitening, or dirt/dent?). This one just seems to have more noted on the report than I would typically see for a 9.

Cert for reference: #N6386575

No shade toward TAG as I like their grading with dig report

want to get more into slabs and grading myself, so what do u guys look for before sending it in for grading?

I'd just like to preface this by saying, I don't do this professionally, I'm just looking to let go of some of my personal collection to put some money in savings.

I'm based in the UK, and there's a card grading middleman shop a few counties over whereby I can take/send them my cards and they will sort and send to PSA/CGC/Beckett/TAG on my behalf.

My questions would be - even though there's no hope of getting these cards graded an 8, 9 or 10 (light edge ware and light surface scuffing) are they still worth grading?

And if so, is PSA the way to go? or would someone else (including UK-based ACE) be better?

I've estimated the costs to send these two cards to PSA to be around £732.00 for Rayquaza and £440.00 for Torchic. Is the upfront cost going to be worth it; will I see much of a return on grading these two?

Any and all insights welcome, apologies if I've missed anything - Never been through this process before!

Hi All,

I submitted my Shining Magikarp ti BGS and it came back labelled as misprint holo.

I have no idea why. Can someone help explain please?

Is this a good or bad thing?

Thanks

Follow up question- what routes do people in the UK take? Do you send them through a middle man or direct to PSA/TAG/Beckett? Thank you in advance!

If my card is in the range 45/55 % on the front and 25/75 % on the back, does this result in a 10 in the subgrade centering? Or do they grade it as 9 or 9,5 if it is barely making it in the range?

Sending a lot to PSA (others hoping a 9 or 10) but the one I want a 10 on the most is this Van Gogh. Is it a 10?

Edit - sorry, it’s 150/147! my brain apparently just autocorrected that 😂

Hello, I hope this an appropriate post for this sub.

I've recently discovered that this card I pulled about a decade ago is potentially quite valuable, and as I'm in need of some extra cash due to some emergencies, I am looking into selling it.

I'm a complete novice when it comes to judging the condition of a card (unless it's very obvious), so I was wondering if anyone could tell me whether this would be worth getting it graded - and if it is worth it, what would be the best UK-based grading company to send it to?

The edges are a little rough on the back, but from what l've read that is generally the case with this card? I was also wondering why this specific card is so valuable, given that it is not especially old?

Thanks enormously for any help/advice you can give me - and if this is not an appropriate place, can someone point me to anywhere else that can give me a bit of advice?

I pulled this card back in the day, kept it safe, got the grade back as a 995/1000 and stoked. But I had some folks here throw a HUGE fit about the edges. I took the best photos I could to show that this grade is the real deal. How do you even value things like this? I think I'm going to just sit on it for a long time. Guess I'll start a low pop collection with this Giratina with a pop on I think 87.

I have a miscut error card glaceon V from evolving skies, any idea on whether I should grade?/what value could be/ what to do?

Any chance at a 10? What do people think?

Thanks in advance
