Sword and Shield Black Label Cards

How many Black Label grades of Zacian and Zamazenta will there be by the end of the month?

Depends on how clean the cards are. Hidden fates was an absurdly high-quality set

Zacian 35 BGS Black Labels
Zamazenta 25 Black Labels

12-15 each

Hard to say how many, mostly because I’m not sure many will be grading right away. Not a nostalgia or collector driven set, but it may surprise us with the numbers. Also as said the print quality in the set is the biggest factor. Actual submissions and PSA mood that month effects it slightly less.

lol PSA’s mood. Who knows what is up with that company anymore. Refusing to add another staff member for 15/hr when they grade cards at that price is hilarious, and then they have their current staff members(all 2 of them) grading hundreds of cards an hour nonstop

If only BGS wasn’t incompetent with grades below 9.5, then they’d be the premier pokemon grading service :slightly_frowning_face:

Yeah they are for sure missing the mark when making grading cards a standard thing in the hobby. You’d think they would hire more. The wait times are demoralizing to people new to grading. Most would submit even more stuff if the turn around was cut drastically.

People complain about them all over youtube and instagram then instantly say how they’re ready to do their next 200 card submission. If the community is gonna stay like this then there’s no reason from their perspective why they should improve sadly :slightly_frowning_face:

I think it’s quite ridiculous really. Like you can’t even send in a set of Japanese promos(think it was corocoro promos?) without them giving you auto 6s because they don’t know how the cards were produced, then you also don’t want to bother sending them back in to be regraded/reviewed because they’d still give it a 6(again because their graders don’t seem to know what’s going on with pokemon cards half the time) and because a lot of cards aren’t financially worth grading more than once

BGS Black Label the new hype?

Black Labels S&S cards are the true first edition.
