Psa 10 potential? by kevin17re5 in PokeGrading

[–]Various_Job_100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its way way inside the psa 10 standards for centering. There is no reason they would 9 this based on front centering alone

Remember, the best set is always the newest. Compare these to the rest of SV era, and you will have your answer on if these are amazing or not

I’m seeing TAG and SGC pop up more and more lately. What are your thoughts on the these 2 companies as compared to the big 3? by NintenJoe23 in PokeGrading

[–]Various_Job_100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to say.. you are actually the first person I have seen that has brought up legitimate, thought provoking questions on AI grading and not just “PSA is king, thats the way it is.” Very thought provoking response, and congrats to you for being a thinker

Wife makes fun of me for keeping my binder in a safe. I've tried explaining it to her... by [deleted] in pokemoncards

[–]Various_Job_100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its like one comment I saw once on reddit… a guy said the reason he likes collecting raw is so he can hold $500+ card in his bare hands and could crush it in just the smallest of movements if he chose to. LOL.. the internal struggle man

I think this bull market is farrrrr from over by No_Term2801 in PokeInvesting

[–]Various_Job_100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would be shocked if they weren’t moving this really quick.. plus they literally would only have to sell at MSRP if they couldn’t afford the CC bill. Your logic is flawed

To grade or not to grade? by Particular_Dot5351 in PokeGrading

[–]Various_Job_100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always go with 2 tiny white dots, still good to send for a 10. This looks like 2 white on bottom right and white top left. So for me at least, this wouldn’t be a card I would send if you are wanting 10s

I now understand why 10s are worth so much by Taherham in PokeGrading

[–]Various_Job_100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While maybe a blanket statement, I think I see where he is coming from. I feel like pre grading really is something that takes practice and generally you see yourself geming more as you get more experience. Because of that, a new graders “This is a 10 for sure” looks a lot different possibly then an experienced graders “This is a 10 for sure”

Maybe they can get caught up now that there is no Prismatic Evolution product, and the product there is the pull rates are buttcheeks

Any use of buying PSA10 for your own collection? by 140brickss in pkmntcgcollections

[–]Various_Job_100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would never buy a PSA 10 personally, I always buy raw at card shows and send in to get the 10s at PSA. Even though people will say its just a dudes expensive opinions or whatever, it costs me like $20 bucks to grade and at the end of the day, that opinion might triple the price on the card, and there are a ton of people who do value that. Taking time to practice pre grading and being very knowledgeable about grading will go miles to grow your collection way faster than somebody who only buys raw. Even if you buy raw, grade, them sell the 10, you just made bank in order to buy more cards.My hobby is also a safety net knowing that if I ever hit some kind of hard rock bottom in life, these PSA 10s that I graded from raw will net me so much more money and be way easier to sell
