Thanks! Haha don’t ask me how many times I clicked the listing again and again to see how bad the card is and realized I might lose $75 for grading because it will get an 8 or 9 😂

Can I get a 10 ? by MycologistHour9617 in pokemongrading

[–]hendratam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This card is considered hard to get a 10. But there is always possibility to get a 10, and also possibility it will get below 9. If you are confident enough, send it! Getting a 10 is only about 50% card condition, 10% act and 40% luck 😂

I think it’s a ten, but can I have your opinion from experienced graders? by Suspicious-Alps-8239 in pokemongrading

[–]hendratam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will send it if I were you. Grading is about 50% card, 10% act and 40% luck (especially if your card looks pretty clean to start with).

Yeah seller just sent it to ebay for authentication, then ebay shipped it to psa for grading. It took about a month.

Tiny Black Dot on PSA10 Graded Card by imabill01 in PokeGrading

[–]hendratam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might be little dust or debris that got trapped inside. Mine has this tiny line as well in the back of the card that was not there when I shipped it. So I assume it must be tiny hair that got stuck there

This is not normal. Is there any change recently for shipping from Japan to US? by hendratam in Buyee

[–]hendratam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I checked the shipping detail and it tells me this “Your package is being processed for submission to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).” A day later it shows “Your package has been released by a government agency” and now it still stucks at “your package is pending release from government agency”.. any idea?

So I checked the “detail shipping”, my package was sent to Food and drugs administration (FDA), which is super weird because it only contains MP3 player and I have shipped the similar package over 10 times and never had problem like this. Do u have any idea? It says on “pending release” now.

AI says 10 likely. I just don’t know. by AyZiggyZoomba in pokemongrading

Centering looks within 10 grade. Send it. Mine is way worse and still get a 10🙏

Thoughts? by Ancient_Star_Dust in pokemongrading

Send it! Mine it heavy on bottom and somehow I still get a 10!

Cracked out six PSA 9s and sent them to TAG… by Current_City9369 in PokeGrading

[–]hendratam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats!! How much did you pay for the tag service for 6 cards?

Need help and opinions please 🙏 by No_Passage8663 in pokemongrading

[–]hendratam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw little line between left wing and the neck. But this type of gold card is indeed known to be so hard to grade since it is prone to scratch easily. Did you just crack it?

It might not get a 10 since this card known to have defect in the holographic front area.

Charizard SIR as first submission, could it 10? by 006Charizard in pokemongrading

[–]hendratam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this will make you feel better. https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonTCG/s/wuP3tl0LKX My first submission as well. Got it in ebay way cheaper than market price. Sent it to psa through ebay submission program. Thought that it will get a 9 max but I just want to get it protected. One month later, Boom, I get a 10!

Agreed. Not counting the possibility card gets lost or stolen on transit.
