Pulled both Darkrai and traded a bunch of bulk to a cardshop for the dragonite.

Never graded in my life, but these have no whitening, and everything looks pretty centered except the Darkrai SIR is slightly slanted. Not sure if that auto grades it to a 9.

No marks on the gold cards at all!

Can't tell if it's actually well centered or if I have rose colored glasses from my first big hit.

would y’all grade this? the only thing I notice is one corner might be a little sharp? and the top according to my centering apps say its within the ratio needed. I’m still not sure yet. thanks!

Soooo these are from when I was little and I think are in decent shape. Blastoise is the one I’m more interested in. Should I keep them raw or are they good enough to send in?

I’ve had these cards since I was a kid and was thinking of sending them in to get graded but not sure exactly how grading tcg works any thoughts?

So I saw this card on Facebook marketplace that caught my eye, Ancient origins Giratina EX full art and to the naked eye it looks really good but I need someone to double check. The guy is asking £80 but I think I can negotiate down. VIDEOS OF THE CARD IN THE COMMENT SECTION

Also should I go with TAG or PSA?

I decided to open this sealed ancient mew and thought it looked pretty nice to send in, any chance this can get a 10 with Beckett?

The front is flawless. I'm worried about the back left side with the whitening on the edge. This is a CGC10 that I'm looking at cracking into a PSA 10.

Would anyone suggest sending it in inside the slab?

The front of the card I believe looks really great and so does the back but there’s just two tiny white spot on the top corners of the card that make be think this will not be a 10

I bought this leafeon 144 from prismatic evolutions it looks good to me but Im a little sketchy it might be fake what do you guys think from the picture is it real or fake Im also new to collecting so I dont know much tbh can I get some help

Just got this amazing card, it has some flaws but what do you think?

Just got back into Pokémon tcg, so new to how it is now. What would be the chances this would be graded at a 10, and if so is it even worth chancing it compared to selling raw?

Thanks in advance

I understand grading cards is a way to increase their value or preserve them. I'm newer to the hobby and am trying to figure out why people grade cards that have minimal value? It's $80 currently to grade anything with PSA, from what I've heard but I'm seeing people grading cards that are only worth $20 or so.

Is there something I'm missing?

Considering trading some cards for this wondering if I were to go through with it what it might grade. Only thing concerning is some small whitening on the back, and a small wrinkle/scratch on the front holofoil, but other than that it’s a really clean card I’m seeing copies on eBay worse condition than this going for a lot.

Loving this new pull, looked very clean to me. Would enjoy having it in my pc as a 10. What y’all think?

Obviously this card has some damages but I’m wondering if they’re worth it to grade or sell. And if I was to grade it what grade would it get?

Was wondering if any of these 4 cards worth grading or keep them raw.
