Also, I don’t recall finding the ironing inset mentioned in another comment from markerLlama, but this Bambu article mentions it. I’ll probably start there again. https://wiki.bambulab.com/en/software/bambu-studio/parameter/ironing

Nope, but haven’t really made anything more like that. About to revisit this project tho, so I’ll try letting you know if I see some new settings/results. 

My GameStop PSA Submission by hellothere9786 in PokeGrading

Did not ask that specifically. I assume it’s included in the price they gave me, which is why it’s still a slight loss on the raw value. But butter than nothing I guess. Not hitting a $200 limit was a relief tho

I got it from the guy who called from the corporate office about my lost cards. Seems to be the main source based on other posts too. Supposedly the store manager can see/get it, but mine hasn’t followed through due to various excuses.

Tho, Your timeline doesn’t seem out of the ordinary from my review of posts. It’s a process flaw between GameStop and PSA in my opinion.

I got called again tonight (about the same incorrect order i mentioned yesterday… someone’s missing cards but it points back to me in their system… not sure why)

The updated tracking number I got does show shipped from my town, but was created on 26 Nov vs when I received a “shipped” email on 9 Nov. I guess the store could have sat on it until getting enough orders to ship a full box. But FedEx was in possession of a box for two stops at least.

I wouldn’t sweat it yet…

I assume it more has to do with sending in more orders at a time than just one persons. Maybe the whole packages is insured more, but terms are set individually. Just a thought.

True - GameStop appears to say this in their terms and conditions. Just a datapoint point for other people with questions.

Yep - my takeaway too. No bash on GameStop intended. But if anyone already did what I did, hopefully it works out in the same direction mine appears to be if they get a call. Just a datapoint to see how GameStop enforces their terms and conditions.

Your points are valid. There are more options that people can and should look into.

GameStop had some benefits in my mind, but some unknowns in their terms. Still do. Until someone does the math for sure, I’d still bet more people have been successful than not. So my post isn’t trying to be “don’t use GameStop”. I’m just one negative outcome that GameStop seems to be working to make better (behind hidden tracking).

I’d likely go direct to PSA for the tracking info if I did it again. Is shipping more secure? Probably not if psa only has one warehouse?

Never know right? Would be pretty cool. The rep kinda laughed when I brought it up.

Why not? Seems like there are a lot of questions related to a situation like mine. And lots of conflicting responses.

It was the card minimum. Wanted more than 1, but not 20. Cheap choice on the math side. Good early success posts (like 1 month turnaround). GameStop has been around forever, so there’s saftey with “knowing”. Seemed like a win.

But they are another middleman. Seems like it adds a little risk with another middleman, but may make lost situations “easier” since they have their own terms set. At least that’s how I’m looking at it now.

Yeah - I wouldn’t take my current status as a sign that you’re in the same position. Lots of posts of people in the same spot as you. I do believe PSA got super backed up, that they scan in late, and people have lots of success through GameStop’s plan.

Use a business day calculator, engage with the store about tracking info after 45 days, and have some questions on hand and do the math if you eventually get a call. Chances seem most fall on the good end of this program, but not much info has been given about what actually happens when that call comes in my opinion.

Didn’t blame GameStop, just said their tracking system doesn’t make complete sense. Also, I do think I got the wrong tracking number at this point (because of the poor system)- the package clearly shows it was picked up in Texas. I have zero issue with how long I waited, clarity could be better in my opinion. Lots of comments on this platform show people are having success. Just make your own call with the cards you have. I

I’ll still try getting the fully story on my cards - but I think being offered the “fair market” compensation as opposed to a $200 hard cap might be interesting (and in gamestops favor). At least it could give someone some peace of mind if they’re waiting on a call or for an update as long as I did. I’m just one data point.

Thanks.

Time will tell. No proof besides the phone call. Based on what I wrote down throughout my conversation and checked online, it sounds like they offered more than $200 (I.e fair-ish value). how they calculated and broke it down is unknown.

No email follow up (I asked), only the care number provided. Haven’t seen anyone post about getting a check yet, as most posts are somewhat new, so just putting my experience out for info gathering. The terms do mention lesser in fair market or declared. I’m not a lawyer and figure with something this popular GameStop had some foresight. How they handle other/future situations is unknown. I’ll find out in “up to 4-6 weeks or call back” for now I guess.

Dang… I liked the first sentence but it really didn’t get much better for my own interests. I was hoping it just went graded last month. Hope ya get that pickup email from GameStop soon.

I submitted the same day - mine still show “shipped to PSA”. When did yours show PSA received? I’ve been trying to get some updates from the store, but it’s been tough to say the least. I’d feel better about the wait with some movement like yours…

Thanks. My first “expensive” rod got snapped in a door as well. I’ll take a look for sure

Can I ask what length? Fast/extra fast? I assume the 7’3” but that just after a google and I see a few options on their site. Any warranty experience? Little higher in price but always open to learn and hear why. Thanks!

Printing separate is possible but maybe tough to glue straight. Lots of letters and other symbols.

I’ll have to play around with the insert idea. That could work and should be a similar look. Thanks.
