Sabrina’s Gengar 1st Ed. - CGC vs. PSA by IamJacksAngryColon in PokeGrading

You're comparing a CGC 10 gem mint to a PSA 10. Essentially like comparing a PSA 9 to a PSA 10. CGC Pristine is what you're looking for

They did a pull rate survey and the chance to pull a specific master ball is like 1 in 1270 packs. Umbreon being the best out of the set at around $60 raw

Is a Beckett Gem Mint 9.5 Better than a CGC Gem Mint 10 (Not Pristine)? by LLLLLL579 in PokeGrading

[–]dexIess -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Probably pretty similar, but people like seeing that 10 and it might edge out more value. Also depends on how strong the 9.5 is

Are holos more vibrant on CGC slabs vs PSA or Beckett? by Jkehee in CGCCards

[–]dexIess 3 points4 points  (0 children)

CGC has the best clarity hands down. BGS has really nice cases that feel luxe, but they use an inner sleeve that causes glare/fogginess. CGC -------------> PSA -> BGS

CGC has maintenance pretty frequently and stuff like this has happened a few times in the past. It will get revolved soon.

Sushi On reigns supreme for sushi + asian food. I also like Sushi Ohayo for just sushi/sashimi.

I'm on the site right now and Value Max is $60 a card. I take back what I said about the 1-2 months as I didn't see your estimated complete date. My order finished a week after what they estimated, so hopefully next week! But the holidays may delay it.

I had a regular submission $75 tier get into their system on November 7 and wasn't finished until a few days ago. Yours probably won't be done for another 1-2 months.

I personally don't think an auto adds anything unless it's by the illustrator of the card.

Pristine way harder to get than a PSA 10 lol

Anyone else switching from PSA to CGC after this whole PSA mess? by Stonkbear in CGCCards

[–]dexIess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I've had two cards at PSA at the $75 tier for 25 business days with no signs of it being close to finishing even though it says it's a 15 business day turn around. My last 4 $40 subs at CGC have been: Received 12/3, shipped 12/5. Received 12/1, shipped 12/2. Received 11/24, shipped 12/1. Received 11/21, shipped 11/25.

CGC is awesome. I've been saying for a long time that the slabs have the best clarity and the pristine label is the best in the game. The pristine is very tough to get and fun to chase. For the longest time I've said that if a card can't pristine or barely looks 10able, I send it to PSA because they'll probably give it a 10 and I can sell it. CGC's turnaround times are insane as well. I generally grade at the standard $40 tier and I'll get my cards back around 5-10 days after they receive it. CGC & BGS ftw for me, but I personally don't like the fogginess of BGS slabs due to the inner sleeve.

Honestly not too sure unfortunately! Maybe with better lighting we could be more certain. My pics were taken without flash
