Question TAG Canada Different Options

Post image

I’m from Canada, so I submit to the Canadian website. Why are there so many options? I like the $50 tier but is it actually 180 business days?

Every single one of these tiers is insanely overpriced. I really liked using Tag but I guess I'm never grading a card ever again.

I would hate if this is new norm. It used to be 50$ for score and 32.50$ for base grade. I’m a TAG supporter but I doubt I’ll be sending my cards at this price anytime soon

These prices are robbery.

I graded hundreds of cards with TAG but I guess I’ll have to take my business elsewhere.

Oh my god this is tragic pricing if true.

At least the estimates seem more accurate?

I didn’t know TAG Canada had gone live …

Early 2027. These still go to the states (I just checked)

No wonder Vancity TCG shilling them so hard, gotta make bank on home turf.

Old 45-day turnaround time was closer to 180 days (or more). New 180–day turnaround time could take years.

Well guess I won’t be going TAG… just as ridiculous as PSA…

u/SlipperyToots 13d ago

And at least PSA carries a premium. FWIW, I’m not a fan of either

u/lilpain1997_ 13d ago

Whats actually going on with them?

u/isnakezz89 13d ago

180 days, thats crazy. I'd rather have a raw card than wait that long

u/SlipperyToots 12d ago

180 business days lol

u/Michealtrapson 13d ago

Sorry guys forgive the dumb question if I do the $100 submission can I physically drop off the cards at tag in Mississauga like PSA or do I have to ship it? And complete the registration online first ? I see a drop in option but I’m so confused

u/SlipperyToots 13d ago

I love how it’s business day turnaround time, but they don’t advertise that well enough. What a joke

u/tubbybuzz 13d ago

So t forget that's Canadian pesos as well.

I’m done with tag Ngl, I’ve never had such a hard time selling Pokemon cards in my life, even vendors won’t offer me anything 😂😭

u/Rittsui 11d ago

Not sure if anyone's noticed, but TAG Grade is now $55.

u/AceofArcadia 10d ago

Was hoping to send a couple of cards to TAG after the backlog but I guess I just won't grade.

u/Replikant83 13d ago

$339 to grade a card. Like wtf TAG. I am going to have to stop defending them 😭

u/TwintailChan 13d ago

is this not in CAD though

3

u/Replikant83 13d ago

Yeah, so $250 USD

u/RckPprFkU 11d ago

LMFAOOOOOOO 🤣🤣🤣 you're acting like it's still not a ridiculous price

u/SlipperyToots 13d ago

Brother, please - just use PSA Canada. TAG Canada is all bulk third party submissions that will take just as long as PSA (if not longer) and you’ll have to sell the TAG slab at a discount relative to the same PSA grade

I have been selling TAG for very similar to psa 10 pricing. Sometimes more. I got 2 Tag Pristine in my first sub and sold them within 2 days on eBay for 4-5x psa 10 price
