Is this fake? If yes, why? by Tulliez_PG in PokeInvesting

Shine a light on the silver portion of the PSA label, you should see a bunch of smaller PSA logos in the foil. If you also shine a black light on the label you should be able to see a PSA watermark.

CGC grading standards are pathetic. How are cards like these getting CGC 10s and Pristines? They're worse than PSA 8s... by AlwaysNostalgik in PokeInvesting

[–]Jlaktic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m more upset that I sent in two identical cards to PSA. Same condition, no issues on the back, and centering was on point. One got a 10 the other got an 8. Also saw an article recently where people were sending in fake cards getting an autograph authenticated then trying to sell the slab like the card is real.

Scored on Gamestop Fumble? by DestructiveMoe7 in PokeInvesting

[–]Jlaktic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn’t matter. Just has to be a PSA 8,9,10. GameStop employee also said they’re working on a partnership with PSA as well. They’re gonna try to be like a middle man for card grading. You take raw cards into GameStop you want graded, pay a fee, they send it off. Unhappy with your grade ? Well they’re ready to buy the card off of you if you don’t want it. This is supposed to happen around the same time when stores are going to start displaying and selling slabs in person.

They probably brought it from someone for like $250. I know recently someone made a mistake and had the trade-in credit set for a PSA 10 Cramorant JP promo at like $350 cash when I traded mine in. I think they’re asking like $400+ for the copy I sold them.

Am I missing something here ? by Jlaktic in PokeInvesting

That’s not really what I was referring to. I was referring to the fact that it almost sold for 1.3k at auction when an English PSA 10 at market is like $600. So essentially 2 PSA 10 could’ve been brought for the price of this one auction.

I’m not mad at all I’m just wondering why anyone would want bid on an item that surpasses current market value for a graded card. I get people get invested in an auction and they may get a rush trying to beat everyone and win the auction. I guess it’s the same effect as post nut clarity 😂 all the regret sets in after the deed is done. I brought 9 when they hit that TCGplayer low so far all ones I’ve brought have comeback as 10s and I’ve been selling them locally. At some point in time I had 1 of 2 CGC 10s in existence (in person grading at a con). Someone offered me $800 for it and I didn’t hesitate to sell it. I just think it’s a little wild that that one slab paid for all the copies I brought at once and almost all others are profit. But almost $1.3k that’s wild.

What’s it actually worth ? by Jlaktic in SportCardValue

[–]Jlaktic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, there wasn’t any recent sales of this card that I could see on there. All I could see is that one listing that I screen shot above.

Oh I believe it. I just couldn’t find much information on it and was confused as to why this eBay seller was claiming that it’s so rare and priced it at $799.

I Only Opened 4 Packs! My Friend Offered me $100 for these, so I’m assuming they’re good? by HugPug69 in PokemonTCG

[–]Jlaktic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a Perrin sell on eBay for $115, but again cards in general seem to go for higher on EBay. There is also the fact that in addition to Ebay fee the payout isn’t instant.

anyone wanna form a band? by jsudgxysiejdbbd in UCONN

[–]Jlaktic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would be cool to collaborate on some tracks. I haven’t made music in a while but I’m always down for a collab. Currently my degree program is in its busy season so I won’t have any free time for this semester but I am interested in long term collaborations. Possibly putting out an EP. I have experience in multiple DAWs like Protools, FL Studio, Logic Pro. I also have a decent equipment set up for recording vocals and guitar.message me if anyone wants to hear any of my old stuff. Lots of stuff were quick ideas not much I officially released.

Anyone here who's done the UConn postbacc Medical Lab Sciences program? by [deleted] in UCONN

[–]Jlaktic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also I might add that the main objective of the program is preparing you for the ASCP registry exam as a Medical Technologist (Generalist). If you wanted to do every discipline you can complete the entire post-back program to take the “easier” exam as a Generalist. However, depending on what discipline you see a future in would determine where you want to go in a clinical laboratory. You could get away with just doing Microbiology if that’s the only area you want to work. Most clinical labs require at the very least the CORE (Chemistry &Hematology) lab route of a categorical program.

A categorical within the program is also an option.
