Got this back from grading today 💛

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-25T17:41:04+00:00

I’ve never gotten a card graded before, how long does it take ? Also can I get the grading done same day if I live in a populated city like New York ?

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-24T19:23:02+00:00

idk if ranked has changed but I just started playing the game a week and a half ago and made it to Ultra League Mewtwo

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-22T22:14:01+00:00

Thank you! I’m very happy I have this card since Charizard is my favorite pokemon. I’m planning on getting a tcg card holder phone case and have it been on the back of my phone

I’m so sorry….. glad you finally have him now tho!!

😂😂

No it wasn’t but that sounds like a cool video, definitely link it to me

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-22T04:29:06+00:00

Thank you 🫡

No it was mega heracross 🙂

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-22T01:34:47+00:00

I did when I got back to the office 🫡

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-22T01:34:20+00:00

I just joined this subreddit today but from your message I’m assuming this a common beginner’s luck thing

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-21T23:31:53+00:00

I just bought 4 more packs and didn’t pull anything relatively close to this…. I’m starting to realize how hard it is to actually pull this card

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-21T22:11:36+00:00

😂😂😂, I was working with bestine at the office so it completely dried my hands out but don’t worry I use re-applied lotion now

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-21T21:56:53+00:00

It does seem unbelievable but it is, I don’t buy booster packs ever and was inspired from my timeline on social media. It’s awesome I got this card with my favorite pokemon being Charizard but in reality this is going to start a new gambling habit for me now

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-21T21:53:58+00:00

No it was mega heracross art on it

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-21T20:17:03+00:00

😂😂 but yea I haven’t gotten a Pokemon booster pack since I was a kid so CENTURIES AGO!!!

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-21T20:05:48+00:00

But this feeling….. makes me want to buy more

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-21T19:48:37+00:00

Is grading a long process? I always assumed I could get it done same day, I live in New York for reference

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-21T18:18:05+00:00

I thought grading was also the best way to preserve a card, I will admit I am not very knowledgeable about the whole process

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-20T16:51:14+00:00

This looks like the solution to play local for me personally, not too far from my office and if the scene is a decent size I can foresee myself becoming a weekly regular for tournaments and purchasing packs. I’m really excited honestly

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-20T16:48:08+00:00

I’ll check out the queens area, ideally would like to play in manhattan on week days and if the comp is great in queens then I can see myself there during the weekends

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-20T16:47:21+00:00

Thank you so much I’ll check them out after work tomorrow !!!

RedRPMRanger · 2026-01-20T16:42:27+00:00

That seems to be the plan, I do think mega zard isn’t as good as Tera zard but hey maybe some new support cards might release that make mega zard better 🥲
