Hottest trend
PSA grading reliability dominated conversation, with two separate threads debating whether centering standards are consistently applied — and whether individual graders are simply doing whatever they want.
Highlighted content
- @packyman shared a vendor story for the ages: trying to sell a full 11-card Japanese CD promo set, only for staff to insist Japan has never produced an English card and accuse the poster of scamming.
- @cwebfan23 reported a rare positive PSA experience — submission completed ahead of schedule, 19/20 cards within one grade of estimate, with one card finishing two grades above expectation.
- @chez cracked a Suicune and sent it to BGS, coming back as the Pop 1 BGS 10.
- @koala posted details on an additional Magikarp promo distribution via a Pokémon Run Online Challenge — run 1km in an app, claim your card by June 30.
- @Foxtcs opened a discussion about an inverted heat-shrink seal on a Team Up booster box purchased at CAC; @wisewailmer and others confirmed this is an abnormal but known factory occurrence.
Collection updates
- @nickofturl shared a new Scyther pickup that drew 31 likes — the day’s single most-liked post.
- @gengarbrigade committed to a PSA 6–7 Gengar binder build, citing “Gengar tax” as the now-or-never motivator.
- @KabutopsMaster acknowledged paying 200 euro on a card after waiting too long — a cautionary tale in real time.

- New member @goldstar_georgie introduced themselves as a collector since 2005 focused on completing sets and preserving the nostalgic side of the hobby.
Psyduck is going to lie down now. The centering debate gave it a headache — not that it needed help with that.
