I’m glad it worked out in the end
It seems the thread deleted my latest post for some reason.
Anyway, at the risk of double-posting here’s the fast responses I just got from PSA. Very helpful to know!
That is correct. Editing your order will generate a new order number, and since it’s being generated after the special ends you won’t get the special pricing.
The lack of consensus on discord brings me here. Would the print line on the left hand side of this card affect the grading prospects of this card?
yes
Yes, print lines of any size will ultimately affect the surface grade of the card.
Pour one out for my boy. Accidentally sniped him in the head with the screwdriver trying to get him out of the CGC slab </3
Ouch, poor Vaporeon.
Devastating.
I have 1st Edition sets Base through Neo Destiny. The holos were all previously PSA 8 or higher (a handful of strong 7s, like Typhlosion 17). They are, theoretically, all gradable cards.
Setting aside the answer “all of them”, which would be expensive and difficult for me to do, which cards would you recommend grading before selling? What are the “must grades”?
When I bought a lot of these cards, the difference between a NM raw and a PSA 8 was only $100-$200 difference, which hardly seems worth it considering the expense and the time investment with PSA.
If the goal is to sell, then 8s are not quite worth it (except for the few marquee cards, e.g. Charizard, Dragonite, Gengar, Snorlax, Lugia).
So I posted a while back and I’m not 100% sure on it, but finally got my gold star. I have my doubts that this is a “real” 10, especially when compared to the 9s I got on my other cards. I’ve never sold anything this valuable (or anything at all really) but I’m very tempted to put it up and get my collecting goals out the way (crystal celebi, celebi ex and gold star in a 9). You guys reckon just detailed photos or mention the edgewear?
To me, buying a 9 is buying the card, buying a 10 is buying the label.
So picture of front and back and sell it
Definitely detailed photos. I would say add the edgewear to the description if it makes you feel better. People should be able to see it for themselves in the detailed pics. The fact that it got a 10 is not your fault. You paid for the grading professional to review your card. In their professional opinion it is a 10. I understand the concern but you have done nothing wrong
Is anyone else’s PSA orders taking a Minute to get entered? My 50 sub has been sitting as arrived for 8 days
Yes, I have an arrived order that has sat for 10 days. PSA received a ton of new submissions under their promotions, so I wouldn’t be shocked at the lag time.
Yes, my order arrived at PSA on 8/10 and is only in arrived status
The short answer is probably. There could be some sort of minor crease you missed or something of that sorts. There is also the chance that its a mistake but you would probably have to crack the card and check yourself.
