Why You Don't Spend $10k+ on a PSA 10 Set Card

Bad financial decisions like that are probably part of the reason why you don’t have the cash to buy it XD

Hobby purchases are based on what you’d pay right?

My finances are great, thanks for asking. How is buying that a bad financial decision because you can’t see the back? I don’t intend on buying the card, putting it in a stand just to stare at the back of it. I’m buying the grade, from a grading authority that is well trusted and established.

I hear the Mona Lisa is for sale for really cheap guys, no photos of her back though so you probably won’t want it.

She’s banking on someone as gullible as you to buy it.
There’s a reason some cards in the same grade go for a slight premium if it has less apparent defects.
It’s the same reason why the 10 Zard hasn’t sold.

You don’t just buy the grade but also the card (if you’re discerning).
If you want to overpay for a card that probably shouldn’t be in a psa 10 case then good luck.

The issue is at PSA/people attributing worth to a grade from an unreliable grading company, not the regrader.
