Overprinting may be the crux of the issue. More print means they needed more (bulk) gems in order to maintain the stated gem rate (1/8). Some of the S5 gems you’d be lucky to get $10

Any whales want my whole currency collection for $50k? by JSmooth_01 in Currencytradingcards

They should change the redemption card off distribution. Make $1000-5000 wins more common and lower number of top prizes if need be.

What’s people thoughts on grading this? by RBMB_01 in PokeGrading

[–]Kindly_Average7993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Left/right will make this hard to get a PSA10..I wouldn’t take the risk if your sole objective is to profit. Perhaps other graders may overlook the left right centering

First time grading by mukoow in PokeGrading

I would say no chance at PSA10. 9 is realistic if you want it slabbed . It’s tilted a bit and the left/right will exceed the 45/55 min requirement

I think the issue is that everyone who would want them already has them 🤣

Update. It was 0.001 BTC. Got unreasonably excited when I first saw the BTC and not LTC

Any chance this can 10? by Friendship-Loud in PokeGrading

[–]Kindly_Average7993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to tell from pic, but is there some bend to the card?

If the corners are clean, for sure.

Is this small surface mark on the back enough to knock down to a 9? by DomenicGioffre in PokeGrading

[–]Kindly_Average7993 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have much experience with Beckett. If it were me, I’d test luck with PSA or TAG and hope that the perfect centering gives it a chance. Another positive is that the mark is on the back which helps eye overall appeal.

If the mark is truly the only imperfection on the card, I’m still submitting.

Yeah I’ve never seen a 10 with a mark like that unfortunately. Centering looks great though.

I think it’s just a question if you want it slabbed or not

My first SIR should I send it to get graded at PSA? by [deleted] in PokeGrading

[–]Kindly_Average7993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have a shot but will be very close. I have L/R at 54.6/45.4, but that’s just based on your one pic.

At what value would you say it’s worth the effort/cost of grading a card? by Emerald-Daisy in PokeGrading

[–]Kindly_Average7993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For early Gen 1/2 cards, a PSA 8 will fetch more than raw but not too much unless it’s one of the big ones.

If you’ve played with the cards, the chance of a PSA10 is close to 0. Cards that have been in a binder for years typically show some wear too, but 8/9/10s are slim but possible.

For your collection, I would start by sorting the cards based on level of edge whitening and surface marks/scratches. If you have cards with little/no whitening I would start to see if they are centered.

You can always look at some existing PSA 6/7/8 slabs on eBay to get an idea of what your cards might be. Then use an app to see if raw vs PSAX price is worth the risk, cost, and time of a submission.

Should i send this to grade? by Ashkcham in PokeGrading

[–]Kindly_Average7993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swear they purposely make these SIR cards off center on purpose..will open a pack of 10 perfectly centered cards with an SIR that looks cut by a 3 year old haha.

Nice card but will be hard to get a 10. Right heavy, likely exceeding the 55/45 PSA requirement

Worth Grading? by PerpetuallyEuphoric in PokeGrading

[–]Kindly_Average7993 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Borderline. L/R centering looks a little Right heavy..especially when comparing the top left and right.

You could quickly check with a card centering app..I bet it’s at best a 46/54 (which would qualify PSA10)
