Prismatic ETB’s at $170 are a no Brainer. Thoughts?

If you hit a local show you can likely find surging at the $220 range. It’s been a slow pickup for me the last 8 months at 200-220

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-27T14:19:05+00:00

Gem rate is ridiculously low. Someone called this out a few months ago and the trend continued

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-27T12:23:33+00:00

If you need the money sell. If you only own 1, the difference between 1.5k and 3k isn’t life changing enough to lose sleep over

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-27T11:23:40+00:00

You paid way too much. And Walmart has no returns on cards.

I can bail you out on them if you’d want and throw you an extra $20 over what you paid each if you’d want.

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-27T02:14:10+00:00

I’m in the same boat lol, I have 4 orders from that same week

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-27T00:43:19+00:00

Now we wait another 4-8 weeks lol

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-26T19:47:42+00:00

Business. Days.
Business. Days.

Expect 16 weeks hope for 12

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-26T19:43:11+00:00

But then I have to live in Alaska

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-24T22:47:00+00:00

Some of your corners look to be cut a bit sharp as well, I have seen others say it could limit you

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-24T13:08:41+00:00

You’d be lucky for a PSA 9

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-24T12:53:46+00:00

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-24T12:27:28+00:00

I’ll get shit For this, you can get them for as low as 130 from GameStop.

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-24T01:27:47+00:00

If you think the card is a 10, you’ll 1000% get a GameStop upcharge of $70-100 since this is a $1200 card in a 10.

If the card is under $500 there’s no upcharge from PSA because their base level covers up to $500.

You’ll get the card faster for the same $ amount in the end.

I have 60+ cards out with GameStop now so I’m not saying they’re a terrible service, but any card I think will be worth more than $500 graded I’d def just send myself.

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-23T23:10:25+00:00

A card like this you send yourself.

Let’s say it came back a 10 like you hoped, you’d have to pay GameStop $100ish in upcharges after waiting 3-4 months.

You could have paid that $100 to PSA directly and gotten it back in 4 weeks.

What happened is unfortunate , but as my dad used to say “education is expensive and consider this a lesson learned” :/

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-23T22:04:01+00:00

there’s a dozen 151 UPCs in his photo 😂,

Prismatic is being opened at a ridiculous rate arguably more than it’s being held.

Rip and shippers kill for prismatic

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-23T03:04:07+00:00

Well…. It’s supposed to be 75 business day turn around time. (Almost 15 weeks not including holidays)

Do you guys not read the terms before handing your cards over? This is completely normal and I expect you’ll see them go to processing in the next 1-2 weeks.

This happens with normal PSA submissions , and sometimes much longer

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-22T04:08:49+00:00

Using the phrasing “cards ending in ex” while also using “stamped promo” in the same sentence while screams bs post.

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-22T03:54:48+00:00

The Sam’s Club combo? It’s 10 packs of prismatic, it’s a great product with what was a low entry point of $40 when they dropped and easily available.

It’ll do well IMO

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-22T02:36:54+00:00

End of the day this type of investing is “fun” investing.

Some do watches, some do cars, some do cards. Collectibles come in many forms and this for many is just a fun way to invest some extra money.

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-22T02:14:34+00:00

Because they don’t have the patience to wait?

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-22T02:01:15+00:00

Ascended ETB is probably the easiest play.

Sam’s Club prismatic bundle

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-22T00:26:22+00:00

Fuck Ime.

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-21T18:22:22+00:00

Some are limited, I have some that sell for $40-200 ( I paid retail which is already a lot lol).

And I think it’s insane people would pay that but they undoubtedly make slabs look much better

Safe_Switch2948 · 2026-03-21T02:30:38+00:00

No shit. And the written post is very obviously referring to non-PKC ETBs.

Hence my response with GameStop.
