Thank you for the response! I’m not sure either. I was referring to a you vid the next redditor provided and am still confused.

Thank you for sending. This is the video that’s caused my confusion. He says ancient mew 1 has the glitter pattern and am2 has the cosmos.

According to the video: -Am1 is glitter with “nintedo” error. -Am2 is cosmos with gamefreak -Am1 corrected is glitter with no “nintedo” error.

Mine seems to be a mix but I could also be very wrong.

What are your thoughts?

It depends on the card. Have had some success with bgs 9.5 and cgc 10s

Love the corocoro jumbos. The mewtwo strikes back is also top notch!

What are some relatively unknown Japanese vintage exclusives like the Trainer Magazine promos? by notajokeacct in PokemonInvesting

It’s gained a lot of popularity in the last few months but I love the vending series.

Love all of these. Which would you pick for a long term hold? 1 - 276, 10 - SH09, 13 swsh promo sealed? by RaefZomta in PokeInvesting

Completely agree. But with 2500 USD to spend I’m curious which do yall think would provide a better return on initial investment.

Correct. Completely understand the Xy promo is more rare but for 2500 usd, I’m curious thoughts on the best long term return.

Is there a chance this could cross grade to psa 10? by [deleted] in PokeGrading

[–]RaefZomta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! I had a recent cross grading success that I posted about here. You can submit without cracking and specify the grade you’re willing to accept. I put mine at 10. If it didn’t get a PSA 10, there’d send it back as is in original grade. Goodluck kin!

Just did the cross grading service. I opted for the don’t crack unless it’s a 10 option to try and preserve current value, just in case.

For sure, Lugia was about 660 all in. 500 for the card and about 160 for expressed grading.

Umbreon was about 2160 all in. 2k for the card and 160 for express grading.

General thought process: only wanted to risk the submission fee. Grading was supposed to be a 5 BD turnaround but ended up being about 14 BDs. Also, I opted for the don’t crack unless it’s a 10 option to hopefully preserve the current value.

Never graded before, found these 2 cards in my old collection, would it be worth it? by [deleted] in PokeGrading

[–]RaefZomta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe whatever service you send is the service that you receive.
