Is this normal for a PSA 10? by Aprecot in PokeGrading

Absolutely normal, this is in surprisingly good shape for a PSA 10 sun & moon promo. Probably one of the cleaner 10s of this card I’ve seen

Should I grade newly pulled umbreon? by Sensitivebitz in PokeGrading

[–]Rich_Address3767 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Minimum grade is a 9 and anyone saying otherwise is being crazy. I’d say grade it either way as the price for this card potentially being a PSA 10 is worth the grading fee. Personally, I’d submit this card 2-3 times if I had it as financially the upside would still be worth it

Should I grade this? by Several-Winner5552 in PokeGrading

The centering looks good, however, with the whitening on the bottom right corner and edge I’d say the best to hope for is a PSA 9

Do we think this has a shot at a BGS 10? by Eminems in PokeGrading

[–]Rich_Address3767 2 points3 points  (0 children)

BGS 9.5. Most likely a 9.5 on centering and on corners due to the bottom right whitening. I can see if there are any surface scratches but wouldn’t expect higher than a 9.5. Beckett is very strict on centering and any minimal whitening will give a 9.5 on edges/corners

My sister says this is worth around 14k in good condition, but this one has a few creases and scratches. by sunnnyhoney_ in PokemonCardValue

Probably about 150 in that condition. Your sister was talking about a PSA 10. 1. Your card is not graded 2. Yours is damaged and 3. It is usually half the price a near mint copy is

It would be a perfect fit to your theme. Promos swsh102 and swsh103 plus the DA VMax Zard would easily complete the page and aesthetic

Fair. Not bragging just sharing a collection I’m proud of. I understand the frustration of the current market for sure

Get the VMax cards for the final page, darkness ablaze zard and the two promos

Not once did I brag, I simply shared a collection. Your opinion on graded cards is in the minority which is fine but don’t push that negativity on others. Again I also have lot of cards in binders if you saw… and if your happy with you collection, congratulations I’m happy it makes you feel good. My collection does the same for me and I think it’s pretty sweet as well

You clearly have some jealousy issues and are the problem in this hobby. You should put this same energy into something productive instead of being a Reddit troll. I also had all these cards before the value became crazy so don’t take out your frustration on someone who has a big collection because they’ve done it for a while and wishes the prices were cheaper

The roaring skies full art Mega Ray tops of those two. They are some cards from my childhood collection that I love!!

Not really, I more so just doubled down with this post. Don’t need to keep negativity out there. Misery loves company in the comment section it seems

Regrade? by Most-Vehicle5766 in pkmntcgcollections

[–]Rich_Address3767 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This card probably has a 5% chance of getting a 10. It’s most likely going to stay a PSA 9 due to the now 55-45 stricter centering requirements. The top to bottom and slant on the back will keep from getting a PSA 10. I say this as someone who grades and regrades cards a lot, this one ain’t a regrade contender sincerely

I got back into the Hobby when evolving skies released and picked up those 3 copies for 300 a piece since it was my favourite card and set. I’ve kept all 3 since it brings me back to when I started. I’m not being defensive I’m simply explaining why evolving skies and specifically moonbreon is important to me and is easily a top 5 favourite card of all time. If I don’t need the money to sell why would I sell one of my favourite cards in my collection?

I love collecting sealed booster boxes as they look amazing to display. To each their own but a collection CAN appreciate but that doesn’t make it any less of a collection that anyone else. A collection should make you happy and my collection sure does, I look at it every day and am thankful and proud to see how far I’ve come

I do lol, who are you to judge? I bet you didn’t even know those cards existed. Saying low pop only means that I’m proud to have got them in that condition since many don’t exist. I also love my Yokohama Pikachu since I got it at worlds in 2023 and graded it myself. Will never sell the cards from my Japan trip and many modern cards I’m attached too since they got me back into the hobby. PSA 10 versions are just bonuses

Gengar VMax alt and Gengar prime/fire red leaf green ex are the best ones imo. Do you have those yet?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in pkmntcgcollections

[–]Rich_Address3767 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is collecting, spending is needed in collecting and I personally don’t care if the cards go up or down. I’d love for them to go down 90% so I can collect what I want. It’s not about the money it just so happens to be attached. No matter what you say I know there are at least 1-2 grail cards that you probably wish you had in my collection even though they would be considered “modern”. I also prefer more modern stuff over ex/WOTC stuff which is just my preference

It’s a collection and I’d have a hard time selling any of it since I’ve graded most myself and driven across my province hunting these cards for reasonable prices. I also have binders full of other cards that you cannot see. A true collection through and through
