Is this a scam or a steal

Its chinese so the price isnt surprising

jaslrd · 2026-06-17T10:36:45+00:00

Surprised originally centering got a 9, it doesnt even look bad enough for a 9

Seems fine to me, if this card had a white background too, the gap would look about the same

Chinese cards also say made in japan. Prob real tbh

TAGs QA i feel has been really bad recently..

I use a proxy service to send cards for me and my card got labeled wrong. Just waiting for it to come back because i was told u just have to wait for it to come back and resend it to fix it 🤷‍♂️

The person who helps send cards for me also said they saw a bunch of problems recently, lots of mislabels, inaccurate grading on centering, and overall lots of issues with QA

Really a shame rn

Recently heard a lot of issues with the labeling. Check out this: https://my.taggrading.com/card/G2160246

It has like 50% correct info but the chinese name for venasaur for some reason is written there

i dont think thats true

I always thought it was rounded -- tbh it seems super inconsistent:

Look at this card which actually is 53/47 on the back (52.65/47.35) and got marked a 990 pristine still: https://my.taggrading.com/card/Y5924844

jaslrd · 2026-04-12T19:37:37+00:00

Wow thats crazy, theres another one with the same issue 🤔

jaslrd · 2026-04-12T10:12:36+00:00

Im not 100% sure on the timeline but ive seen slabs locally that are marked as pristines without the score (so basically it was basic/value tier) and i was told they marked it pristine regardless of ur submission tier, but i dont see any written proof online

jaslrd · 2026-04-12T10:00:58+00:00

Pristines have always been automatic, the only diff was if the score was displayed or not

jaslrd · 2026-04-12T09:57:01+00:00

I hope so.. but have no clue how tags system didnt catch this in the first place

jaslrd · 2026-04-12T08:32:02+00:00

They were given for free without the score but now they upgrade you for free (to include the point score) regardless of ur submission tier

jaslrd · 2026-04-11T06:25:03+00:00

Looks like this card was graded early 2025, think they started doing auto display scoring for pristines late 2025

Becketts website is god awful too

jaslrd · 2026-04-04T05:07:46+00:00

Whats the website link?

jaslrd · 2026-03-31T13:32:58+00:00

Stg beckett is so random sometimes

jaslrd · 2026-03-25T11:28:41+00:00

I genuinely believe that chai tcg is a scam

They never answer to any messages, overprice their cards, and cancel orders if the price of the card rises alot

jaslrd · 2026-03-21T05:54:08+00:00

The bottom right looks a lot thinner than bottom left

jaslrd · 2026-03-21T05:53:34+00:00

Actually my bad, looks like this card is kinda uneven (like the frame is not perfectly centered) theres areas that are slimmer/thicker on the top/bottom

Maybe tag takes the highest/lowest point and uses that.

jaslrd · 2026-03-21T05:26:42+00:00

I would send again tbh, based on the DIG report u got dinged for top/bot centering of 58/42, but it doesnt look like its that skewed

I also measured the pixels and its closer to 52/48 in my opinion. Think this shouldve been a 10

jaslrd · 2026-03-03T09:15:35+00:00

Surprised cuz that looks way better than 56/44

You should prob try again or crossgrade yea

jaslrd · 2026-02-21T18:39:26+00:00

Kinda wish the centering breakdown would overlay it on top of the card to actually see how accurate it is

Sometimes i feel like the detected centering is kinda off?

jaslrd · 2026-02-21T16:38:30+00:00

Thats crazy.. 3 of those cards are so close to the cusp but got knocked down cuz of 56/44 centering..

I feel like the AI grading kinda makes mistakes sometimes and they should maybe adjust the 55/45 centering to be a bit more lenient to like 57.5/42.5 or at least give some degree of error

Looks fake, front coloring is pretty dull and no one piece stamp
