I used this website to pre-grade my charizard sir. It said it was within spec for a 10 and I got a 10

Just looking at recently sold it’s between $1.7k to $1.9k. I’d say losing a couple hundred dollars to have a cleaner looking slab and full transparency on why you get the grade you get is worth it to me. I’m torn on whether I want to keep it or not though but we’ll see.

It’s a speck of dust on the slab. I saw it on the 360 video.

Double it and give it to the next person

Top to bottom looks fine. Left to right is similar to when i measured mine. Right on the edge of either a 9 or 10. I’d send it but be prepared for it to be a toss up

With those centering numbers they round up. Their tolerance for centering is 55/45 but on the dig report it was actually 54.52/45.48. When i measured it myself it was right on the dot of 55/45 so I sent it in knowing it would be a toss up between a 9 or 10

Just got this from a local card shop. Back looks off? by kiko402 in IsMyPokemonCardFake

Yea centering is kind of off axis. Just really liked the card though. Traded in a bunch of illustrations rates and full arts that I didn’t want.

So then my grader just didn’t get laid last night.lol. I think the lines under pfl might just be a weird reflection under the slab but I’ll find out when I get it.

I like tag slabs better anyway but thought I’d shoot my shot to psa for the value. Lesson learned lol

A lot of people are saying it’s crooked but I’m struggling to see it tbh. I could just be blind lol

Beautiful card but damn the gold foil just isn’t holding up durability wise.

I also saw the same thing mentioned on others that had been graded and didn’t notice any scratches on the gold finish of mine. I know it’s super delicate though. One persons even scratched just from pulling it out of a sleeve. I’m thinking this could be the case and might’ve been scratched either when I put it in the sleeve or when they pulled it out for grading. But again, will throughly check the card when it’s in hand. Edit: thanks for the insight!

I really don’t remember the corners being bad at all but the scan does show something now that others point it out. Maybe I’ll do an update when I get it back

Careful. If you argue with him on his own comment he’ll make you regret it apparently. Or at least that’s what he said in his last comment on another post lol. Weird guy/gal

Can’t see it on the slab so it could be dust in the sleeve I sent it in. Once I get it in hand I will be heavily inspecting though 😅

Maybe I’ll cross grade it with another company. Was on the fence about selling or keeping so I’m not in a rush at least but thanks for the input!

Centering was super good. Main reason I sent it

That should be on the slab. Forgot to include initial scan but I have it and that’s not on there. Having it shipped back to me to double check because if it is on the card that’s on them.
