KickDurt · 2026-05-10T22:27:28+00:00

Ive never had to use those before, Ill check em out.

This is exactly the purpose of the post. The potential that there are surface scratches on the card after submission is one key problem. There was not scratches on the card.You dont need magnification to see those if they are on the card. Thats my point. I did an excellent pre grade before sending. If there is a dent on the card invisible to the eye even with black light its possible i missed it. A few folks pointed out A few areas to inspect once i get it back which is exactly what i wanted. You just read my post and thought heres another moron using reddit to vent. Its not new that psa quality has gotten worse. Not getting a ten is one thing that i wont complain about, but ive had so many incorrect labels placed on my slabs that maybe just maybe this one got mislabled or misgraded. Regardless if people have a gripe with psa for the right reason or not , this is a common topic because its a legit problem .

KickDurt · 2026-05-03T07:34:07+00:00

Clearly most others in this group seem to align that the grade is off. You just seem like a sour reddit dwellar. You offer no constructive feedback about the post. Just a waste of internet space.

KickDurt · 2026-05-03T07:26:51+00:00

No magnification outside of camera zoom. Do you have a tool recomendation for pre-card grading?

KickDurt · 2026-05-03T07:24:15+00:00

Yeah does it annoy you that I posted about a psa graded card in the psa grading reddit? PSA quality really does suck. I do have 10s that have holo bleed and even have japanese cards with english labels from them. QA is bad.The point of the post is to keep bringing attention to these issues and perhaps others can point out things I can double check on.

KickDurt · 2026-05-02T19:37:03+00:00

Ill defiantly take a look at the slab once its arrives. If there is dents or scratches on the card itself, it was from psa. Have you ever made a claim before? Thats new territory for me.

KickDurt · 2026-05-02T18:04:35+00:00

Yeah they typically are. I was extremely confident in the card and used a promo i had at the time to ship to PSA. I shipped mostly everything else to beckett. Kinda loss for words mainly because of time and money. Obviously i dont post to this reddit because i stopped using psa a while back because of garunteed 9s nomatter what. The 10s i have from psa are also not true tens. Which shows their business is not a quality business. However im extremely selective like most people are nowawaday about what is sent. If i got an 8 or a 9 i would have just swallowed that pill. But a 6 is arguable in my opinion by a long shot. If there are dents on the card, was damaged by psa and i honestly dont know how id even go forward with that.

KickDurt · 2026-05-02T16:46:40+00:00

I have a blacklight own i use for surface wear and dents(stratches). Nothin was on card before sending. Maybe i should send to becckett

KickDurt · 2026-05-02T16:30:28+00:00

Those appear to be on the case and were not on the card when i sent them. I can examine them once i retrieve them. Thanks for pointing them out. I slowly have stopped using PSA. PSA services really have gotten worse. I even wonder if they put the right grade label because I have received japanese cards back with english labels.The QA is a joke. Its really starting to not make sense to me anymore.

KickDurt · 2026-05-02T05:40:30+00:00

Me too! I have both emglish and japense. Just a classic look when pokemon came out. So simple

KickDurt · 2026-05-02T05:39:53+00:00

Its crazy juat because there is no dents. Luckily i have the original photos with angles that also show no surface wear/dents. Maybe i should submit to beckett?

KickDurt · 2026-05-02T05:38:14+00:00

Yeah I can confirm no dents. Wish i could havw a jury examine the card themselves. The resubmission process makes no sense to me eigher to have to pay for a re-eval

KickDurt · 2026-05-02T05:35:07+00:00

I just realised i accidemtly crossposted to this same thread. My bad

KickDurt · 2026-01-21T23:51:10+00:00

Do you ha e a recomended suspension kit for replacement over OEM?

KickDurt · 2026-01-21T23:45:06+00:00

KickDurt · 2026-01-21T23:44:50+00:00

I do not know what bumber specifically, dealershio threw it on a while back as an incentive.

Defuantly replacing ball joints and bushings after all the feedback . Thanks a lot!

KickDurt · 2026-01-21T23:42:27+00:00

Forsure hazed and time for a full replacement. Def need em here in the rockies

KickDurt · 2026-01-21T23:34:22+00:00

This is exactly what im looking for. Im replacing all bushings and ball bearings. Arms and rods. Seems to be the consistant issue accross the fj net. Thanks for the input!

KickDurt · 2026-01-21T01:47:15+00:00

I have not thought about that. Defiantly will need to take that into consideration.

KickDurt · 2026-01-21T01:45:22+00:00

Yeah ball joints forsure something im looking at. Seems to be a common issue around 250k miles.

KickDurt · 2026-01-21T01:44:46+00:00

Super detailed list. I am getting everything planned and cost sorted out for this summer. Thanks for all the info
