The Giant Professional Grading Thread

T/B centering doesn’t look too bad. Isn’t there a bit of whitening on the lower right corner?

Not sure under what topic this is supposed to be in but is there any display cases out there (such as the Beckett image) specifically or that fits very well with ARS graded cards? (Such as the other pic). Thanks!

with:D will have something close I’m sure.

Site is not super easy to browse but the quality of the stuff is good in my experience.

*edit, took a quick look this is as close as you’ll get!

How do i get PSA to reslab my card with a different label that shows the correct Error designation/pedigree?
Would i submit that under tier Reholder or Review?

Has anyone been able to change the label without cracking, regrading?

Neither. Submit it under CRC Incorrect Label (Customer Review Center) and they will review it for a new label. You’ll have to pay the reholder cost if they correctly labeled the card at the time, or they’ll pay for the reholder if they messed up (i.e., the variant was known and used when the card was graded but they didn’t correctly label it).

Ah ok thank you. I recently bought a neo revelation double holo shining gyarados, but a 4cert that doesnt have the designation, just says holo. I dont mind paying the fee as long as they correctly accept it and recase it with correct double holo error pedigree.

got my grade report, it got a 9.

I can’t believe it.

Great job! Show us the card.

the scan is not ready yet.

I found out about the grades because of upcharge.

Also, I have another card that I didn’t think I would get upcharge even more.

Will post results once I get them.

Hi, has any of you graded recently on BGS USA? Wondering what the real time return is for the newest cheap service, 75+ days seems a lot was wondering if it would be usually shorter than thart

My PSA sub from September is finally in QA.

I recon some upcharges will be higher than the price of a PSA 9/10 of the same card 5 months ago. (I’m sending niche as stuff)

PSA should chill with the upcharges.

Hi everyone,

I bought this glossy corocoro pika last year. It is graded by PCG, which I don’t know at all and I am considering cracking and sending to PSA.

The condition of the card is close to mint (especially for this card) but there is a defect on the bottom left. It looks like a small bit of the glossy color is gone. Has anyone any experience on how PSA would grade it ?

thanks a lot in advance !

Just based on the front with that centering and chipping I’d expect a 7, hope for an 8, but probably be completely let down when it comes back a 6.

I have an order there now. Arrived mid December, logged received 12/21 and entered the queue 1/13. Based on my previous order, I’m guessing mid March for grading to be done.

Arrived Jan 12 and sent to the grading center, currently Feb 24 and no response from PSA or BGS.

To crack and resubmit or not.

When cracking slabs and resubmitting, do you guys just use the same PSA account? Is there any reason to assume they dont have a system in place to recognize it’s just a resubmission of the 9’s from a previous order?

They supposedly have a system in place but I still submit the same cards and get upgrades all the time. Every now and then you get the same grades or down grade, I tend to not submit a third time after that.

Looks like a white chip on the back top center edge. My initial thoughts would be max upside to PSA 9. Not sure if I’m missing anything. I think corocoros will have max value in PSA 10 and nosedive hard from there. 10 pops are often <10 while 9s are 30-80ish.

For me personally I wouldn’t bother unless I’m fairly confident in getting a PSA 10. 9s are and will probably continue to be available. Or if you’re confident in a 9 and that’s what you’re after than go for it.

Does anyone have any insight into how harshly PSA grades Tag Team GXs that have 60/40 centering these days? Is it a guaranteed PSA9 with no other damage? What about with one print line?

Wondering if I should just try for the much easier attained CGC10 white label. Thanks in advance!
