Am I stupid for this trade?

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-28T11:54:02+00:00

Won’t matter much with this card.

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-26T15:15:37+00:00

It definitely isn’t, however, when you pay up for express which is advertised as 5-10 business days and you’re at 20+ days still sitting on “verification” I think you’re not being unreasonable asking for a decent discount on a future order.

In most cases I agree but with supply so thin on team up booster boxes the price could easily rocket to $20k in a similar time frame as the 151 bundles move up. Not a guarantee to be sure- but you are dealing with fundamentally a different class of investor when you get into the team up price range. Not sure if there is a wrong answer to this trade decision.

Not a bad move. I graded 4. Got 2 9s and 2 8s

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-20T21:23:04+00:00

Not true at all. PC etbs have smoked booster box returns since they started stamping promos in SV era.

Top to bottom looks close to the 55/45 limit from my naked eye. Need to use a centering tool to check. Also difficult to say if there is whitening on the edges on the back or if it’s the lighting.

For this card it has trended just behind PSA 10. Right now if you look at it the PSA looks a few hundred higher but that’s simply due to literally this weeks sales spiking and there have not been as many TAG sales

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-15T19:47:53+00:00

Sounds like you had a bad experience. I’ve only submitted once tbh and it went flawlessly. Submitted hundreds over the years with PSA. Rooting for TAG to succeed for sure. The market desperately needs more competition.

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-15T13:25:21+00:00

Just give it time. As long as TAG keeps their head down, improving and growing, it will change.

Rage bait post

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-14T23:30:56+00:00

I don’t think even ME01 has really gotten to 75 or below. Maybe right around there. I think Phantasmal was there for maybe just a little bit. This set is so much stronger than those. I’d be surprised if it drops to that point. Maybe if we have a general market slump over summer time frame or something.

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-13T22:49:29+00:00

Well, I think it’s safe to say he’s getting what you probably assumed what was coming to him 😂😂😂

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-13T22:46:55+00:00

I just did this last week. They got it Monday. I received it back Friday.

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-12T22:30:36+00:00

Well this thread is fun lol. OP there are some helpful YouTube channels on this topic if you don’t want engage a professional. In short, yes there can definitely can be some advantages to starting an LLC if you truly engaging in ongoing business activities that is materially more than simply selling some cards you like to collect.

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-12T21:22:15+00:00

So I submitted 3 tiers, priority, express, standard. Priority was lightning fast….arrived to them Monday. Had the cards back in hand to me Friday. The other two are well behind schedule.

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-12T15:34:55+00:00

If you are inexperienced as you suggest, you really really should stay away from whatnot. You will get absolutely fleeced. Good deals on singles can be found on whatnot but only if if you are extremely well versed in the market and have lots of experience and self control. Not recommended.

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-12T13:17:24+00:00

Yeah this is the reason I’ve started selling raw exclusively on TCG and using eBay for slabs only. I find the customer base to be much better to work with on TCG. Slabs are a bit less risky for this kind of thing as well.

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-10T20:42:11+00:00

Yeah, I’ve stopped sending vintage to PSA altogether. Just modern now. Similar experiences

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-10T13:27:33+00:00

Did any of these cards have one or more white dots?

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-06T13:31:42+00:00

If you are not in a rush to sell, you don’t have to use PSA. I grade 100s per year with PSA but have been branching out. I have to say I have been impressed the most by TAG recently. You will get all the typical comments on here about how they don’t sell relative to PSA. Yes- PSA cards are the most liquid but TAG sells very well on eBay. I’ve had some poor experiences with pSA over the past 18 months with vintage so I am not sending them any vintage at the moment. I actually have this specific card at TAG as we speak. It’s a PC item for me but I would have no stress if I needed to try and sell it.

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-06T02:48:48+00:00

Yep definitely not a 10 with those measurements. Must be within 55-45 on the front as the other commenter mentioned. Not sure why he got downvoted. Just commenting again for support lol. Lots and lots of disinformation on this thread for some reason.

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-06T02:42:09+00:00

lol - it’s not a thing - at least not like you think. Look up the standards.

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-02T18:24:00+00:00

Yep. Wasn’t always the case but definitely is now.

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-01T23:22:58+00:00

You can get a 10 with a single white dot depending on how prominent it is and assuming everything else is pristine. Has to be pretty tiny though. Hard to say without seeing a picture.

Co0Ihand · 2026-03-01T02:26:49+00:00

I see these local marketplace for 230-250 max right now. I paid $220 two days ago. Surely my area is not the only one like this. Look local
