BGS 10 Pristine Unl. Machamp PC & BL review?

General
1

Hey E4,

I recently graded this fun fella below, but Here’s an album w/ more pics.

First Question: Opinions on value?

  • I’ve been given a rough estimate of $500 area, which sounds reasonable. I know a Pristine Shadowless Champ w/ 9.5 for the corners sold for around ~$2100, but not entirely sure how to apply it to mine lol.

Second Question: Black Label Review?

  • From the pics provided, would you guys/gals/non-binary/gender-fluid folk think it’s worth trying for a Black Label review?
  • I’ve always tried to be very critical of cards I send in, even more so w/ BGS, but I’m failing to see what edge would dock it that point five. Has anyone had much luck getting a high BGS grade bumped in review?

Thanks Fam!

I think $500 is kind of high just because it’s probably the most produced holo from that era. I’d say about $300, but $500 is not impossible to the right collector.

As for sending it in for a review, you’re free to try though your chances are very slim they will upgrade it. It’s already a miracle you got 3 10s! :grin:

They’ll be grading it inside the case. Surely there’s at least one very minor flaw on the edges?

Thanks for the feedback bud - yeah I should have added $500 as a max suggested value*, but at $300 or $500, definitely not worth selling haha.

I’ve been going over it like crazy and can’t spot what would have done it on the edges. No silvering, not whiting, no nada. It may just be worth the review to get that slip they send back circling where it failed to meet the 10 grade.

If theres nothing at all on those edges then I’d say take a shot at a black label. If nothing else they’ll point out where the problem is:)

Edit: I’m meeting with a Beckett’s rep here in Vegas on April 6th. If you want to send me the card I’ll have him submit it for me for review.

I appreciate that offer Gary, thank you!

Last night I busted out the jewelers magnifying lens & black light, think it’s the bottom edge that dinged it - but still think I’ll take ya up on that offer to know for sure. I’ll DM ya shortly! :grin:
