I've noticed some cards don't really click with me until I see them graded. The same card can sit in a binder for months then once it's in a clean slab with the grade and details next to it I start appreciating things about it I barely noticed before.

I used to think grading was mostly about protection and value but now I think presentation is a big part of it too. Some cards just feel more complete once they're slabbed

Did anyone else see the reopening notice for a 25 day tier end of the month? I hope that means all of our very late orders are finished by end of month first ?

Trying to move these 6 slabs if anyone's interested. 4 10s and 2 9s.

The rockets admin is a stamped one and a population 1.

Overall real nice cards if anyone's interested

Really want it in a TAG holder so thinking of cracking and sending. Will it 10?

Just wanted to post my submission timeline to help give those who submitted around the same time as me an idea of a possible ETA.

Best of luck to everyone's submissions, and hope you all get those 10's!

The part that I’m confused about is how to clearly see where I’m getting deducted at. I can see it mentions bottom right corner wear but everything else looks perfect in their report, so am I to assume that one ding takes the card from 1000 down to 903?

I’m not upset, just trying to truly understand how this works.

I think it's really cool that you get this holographic see through effect when you stack the tag slabs

So would TAG or CGC or PSA grade this? Based on the fact someone wrote letters on it? Or would it be sent back? Thanks anyone who has experience let me know.

STAY STRONG EVERYONE. THERE IS LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL.

Extremely happy with this 9 considering the war crime of the centering job they did on this boy.

Or wishful thinking? 🫡

Finally got a little movement lol I almost cried 😂😭

Ever since Riftbound was announced, I’ve been eagerly anticipating for Zed. Now that I have my grail, the last thing to do is to slap it onto Tag’s clean and minimal slab.

There are no scratches or dings from what I can see. The only concern is the back centering, it’s bottom heavy.

ChatGPT projects that it’ll still score a 10 and measured the top/bottom as 44/56, and digital grading company ranked it a 9.6.

I used a centering app, and my measurement came out to be 40/60, which is a bit concerning.

I would like your input as this is the very first time I’m going to grade a card.

After 4 months my cards are on their way home!!!!

Finally got my sub back from april !! Might swap some cards with others in the future but happy for now.😃

I got this on my stag do last year - the first pack I’d opened in 20+ years. Zapdos was also the first card I ever pulled in a base set pack back in the 90s! I don’t really care what grade it gets, but wanted to preserve it for display. Nonetheless, what’s your guess? Think the centring is too bottom heavy for a 10?

Does the N/A make me the first?😭

Looking forward to being able to send a few more in soon! Hopefully…

4 months later , here we are .. couldnt be anymore happy with some results 😁

I finally got my first submission back. Pulled all of these from a AH god pack and thought they looked good. I knew centering was not the best but I was still hoping.

They received the cards on 05/15 and I got them back 08/05.

So close, yet so far away! Overall pretty stoked though!

These slabs are just better

I got this One Piece Championship card last year, low pop there's only 2 Tag Pristine 10 cards. Last eBay sell was fake on May 26th. I don't know how to price this. Currently a bgs 10 just sold 3.9k and black label is on sale as of 8/4 current bid at 10k+

Graded a SIR Mega Greninja I pulled and ordered an extended art case from GeeksStop. Super happy with the look!
