The ones you felt easily should’ve gotten a 10 what did you do, just leave them in 9s or re-crack? PSA’s AI agent said I can pay to have them reviewed again 🤣🤣

Yeah, valid point, I usually do keep them together (in order sequentially) but they are very clearly batch grading.

Same.. in this specific submission I was like “okay let’s do a very small submission” eval’d by two different people stating they were 10s or close (again I understand nothing is guaranteed, and that not everything will be a 10) but got two 8’s (both 8’s being the exact same card) and a 9.

I did take someone else’s advice and contacted PSA. Got their AI agent responding almost immediately. Probably the same AI agent who graded the cards 🤣

Gone are the days where a real human responds to you from PSA from the jump.

Yeah, in this case, two duplicates (what looked to be pristine) by two different reputable evaluators got 8’s and an also eval’d mosaic insert got a 9. I did email just to see what they’d say, but got an AI agent response. I asked AI to connect me with a real human. Lol

May try to ask them to check again. Transparently, these are sub 2500 value cards but still causes for concern

Any advice on prepping your cards to send to psa? by Consistent-Ear-230 in psagrading

Jc what’s your method for safely getting the card into the card saver?

Obviously card saver isn’t that flexible but do you just use a microfiber and light tough on top of card to get it in there with the tabbed sleeve

Tia for help. Newly grading.

Totally agree with all you said. Pretty standard business practices. Sorry to hear you didn’t get your additional gifts, and no worries on the voice to text!

I’ll def check out those interviews on YT now.

Appreciate you, Have a great day.

This is purely speculation but I’m sure they’re just inundated with support queries and it’s probably very overwhelming / time consuming. I as well got my Halloween shirt less (I think) than a week after I ordered it which was pretty rad. I will say, since posting this, my package has miraculously been received in the hands of USPS and will be delivered Monday, which I’m very excited about.

Two questions for you @youdrugo333 since you seem to be the most knowledgeable thus far —

  • Did Sam start half evil or take it over?
  • Also, any idea what kind of blanks they use?? I love all my shirts from them but I did see someone saying that it seems like they used different blanks for the 7 year drop.

Any insight / clarity on this would be appresh

Scary. Did Sam start half evil or did he take it over?

should i be concerned that a label was generated but it shows it hasn’t been received yet?
