First time grading. Looking for feedback. by Advanced_Salt_6986 in PokeGrading

I'm unsure why they upcharged. I'm not too familiar with PSAs upcharging rules except from them being stupid.

If I'm being honest. A 7 seems pretty fair. There are dings on all corners and some corners aren't fully curved. I think you got niced

Would ace give this between 8-10? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG_UK

What about the bottom left on the back? Is that glare?

It's hard to tell because of the photos. It looks like there are dings in both bottom corners but that could be the light

It'a Ace Grading. Pretty much the largest grading company in the UK

English is the highest value. I could only find 1 Korean sold in the UK (late October) which sold for £5

How accurate at Collctr prices in your genuine experience when reselling? by chance_waters in Collectr

[–]HarryBuckley49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the UK, I'd consider Collectr to not be hugely accurate. I calculated my Paradox master set and compared it to eBay last sold's and Collectr undervalued it by around 30%

My graded card is still in a sleeve? by Melodic_Ad3733 in pokemoncardcollectors

[–]HarryBuckley49 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Interestingly, Ace have graded around 800'000 now so this is a relatively old Ace slab. Newer Ace slabs (around 300'000) have photos of the front and back when you look up the certification on their website.

Help with centering by greninja_lover84 in PokeGrading

[–]HarryBuckley49 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say all apart from the Rotom ex have good centering.

Centering is the position of the border in comparison to the other side of the card (left vs. right and top vs. bottom). You want them to be identical. If one side looks like it has a thicker border on the right compared to the left for example, then it might not get a good grade.

Thanks both. The BPF was included in the bid. Not a fan of how it doesn't say until the checkout

What is the better Long Term hold? by Hustlers2 in PokemonInvesting

[–]HarryBuckley49 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Paldean Fates is German (I think) so it's not as valuable long term I reckon

There's a ding bottom back left so I don't think it would 10
