THE Great Grading Results Thread

Lol tried to squeeze these through the $25 sub but they caught me :frowning:

Got my first submission back from PSA at the $25 rate and got upcharged for two out of three. Was hoping for a possible 10 on Lugia, but it must have been the print line that you can see between the head and wings. Also shoutout to the 8.5, don’t know what to do with that. :smile: I’m still really happy with the grades overall, especially for my first sub ever!

@wjames - Great minds think alike. :wink:

Anyone know roughly how long CRC review submissions take? This submission was received March 13/23. It’s a booster pack that was damaged during the process. It’s been sitting at the grading stage for about a month.

I’ve had CRC take a week total, I’ve also had it take 6 weeks. There is no set time-frame, its really kinda random it seems.

I don’t have a lot of mint holos from the older eras sadly, but I’ve been taking advantage of the recent PSA specials to submit some older common and non-holo cards. It’s nice to appreciate their artwork in a PSA case. Some from recent-ish submissions below (not chronological lol, but all are post-covid era graded):

Hi all!
I just got my charizard graded from BAS and I cant express how angry and furious I am right now

Paid 250$ + shipping from spain + taxes for a grading service, and 2 months later my card arrives with the label completely loose inside the slab.
Tried contacting them through email/instagram and got no response, has anyone had this issue before?

That’s pretty shamefully, sad to see this happen.
Maybe they respond to a fax or telegram?

Sometimes I wonder if any modern 10 premium is justified…

I will buy this off of you

Probably not what you want to hear but you can slam it back in place lol. I’ve done it a dozen times when they’re loose unless they got pinched somehow

I think probstein has a video out there getting one back in place. Seems like a part of doing business w bgs

I finally got my 2020 submission back from PSA.

Cool thing about it is that all these cards except for 5 cards (4 modern zards & low grade shining charizard) came from 1 collection.

Most noticeable cards:
10 Dark Blastoise holo
10 Rocket’s Scyther
10 Light Dragonite
10 Rayquaza holo Holon Phantoms
10 Gyarados holo Holon Phantoms

9 Shining Raichu first edition
9 Shining Noctowl first edition
9 Shining Charizard
9 Goldstars Vaporeon
9 Shining Steelix
9 Shining Kabutops
9 Reverse TLC Bulbasaur

To name a few. Overall decent result although I was hoping for a 10 on some of the bigger cards. i also graded 1st edt Light Arcanine on an 8. I REALLY wanted that to be a 9 as thats probably the coolest card ever. I also submitted a complete 1st edition holo set of Neo Genesis but they graded poorly (7&8)

I will get another 50 back this Saturday, hopefully there are a few cool 9+'s
