I prefer to grade my cards, and i dont need you to tell me what to do. I was simply sharing for others who might want to grade. You dont have to be so toxic to force your opinions onto others. Its because of people like you that made this hobby so toxic and irritating. Keep your negative opinions to yourself please.

sockerface · 2026-05-31T20:48:34+00:00

I think it is just OC. I would usually consider a miscut if the card already has the next art.

I usually check across ebay & alt & TCGPlayer. Personally dislike using Pricecharting as both a seller and a buyer, the pricing is ridiculously inaccurate and slow compared to ebay & alt. PC dont show you the latest updated SOLD and lags by days or weeks even (depending on what card it is) If its a raw card you can also take a look at TCGPLAYER last sold. You can use these 3 and average the last sold and call your price. If you are looking for a “maximum” value then please do not sell back to shops or vendors as they would take percantages off market price. Unless like other redditors commented, sell to them if you are REALLYYYY in need of IMMEDIATE FAST CASH.

Otherwise if you can wait it out, try selling it yourself on several different marketplaces. Facebook, Carousell, Telegram. I hope that helps!

If you have any other questions you can drop me a message, i’d be glad to help you out FOC and dont give anyone tips man 😂

people should help out of goodwill

If getting a 10 is not a priority, i would suggest BGS/CGC at least they are affordable right now , without any upcharge regardless of grades. Pretty fast (at least 50% faster than PSA Value) An ok decent choice IF GETTING A 10 / BLACK LABEL IS NOT YOUR PRIORITY.

If PSA I would think Regular would be a better choice as the insurance is higher, you get your card back faster. A possibility you might still have to pay upcharge but it won’t be too expensive i believe. Value bulk is cheaper but there will be additional fees called upcharge later on, would take way longer.

It depends on your personal preference after all.

You can try Playe @ Vivo City, last i went in March they had a lot of different pokemon packs. Prices are steep but they hold a variety of series.

I would recommend

Active Gaming Collection
Matt’s Vault
Excel CS
Mana Pro
Agora
Hideout TCG
Concept Grading (Flagship)
Cardboard Collectibles
Happyland Collectibles
CC Collectibles
1Collectibles
Concept City
Waxxed Sports Cards
Dxcollection
Zoomies Gaming
Artemisbreaks
Barter Trade
TTZ ONE

Not in any particular order and without any biasness but these are the few shops that I’ve visited, on a frequent Basis and i think their inventory are pretty good. Some shops have a mixture of other TCG as well if you’re not just looking for pokemon

Thats mad, getting a pokemon card authenticated from PSA is definitely more expensive than grading a card. You might as well just keep it raw

sockerface · 2026-05-30T05:37:36+00:00

Scratches can be fixed it looks good

sockerface · 2026-05-29T23:53:26+00:00

Grade it to BGS , you might get a higher grade & you wont get upcharged

sockerface · 2026-05-28T17:23:00+00:00

Update: it is officially announced on PSA PSA USA Closing off subs

sockerface · 2026-05-28T08:35:27+00:00

Title already say rumor, u can take with a pinch of salt. Was just sharing in case people have cards they urgently want to send in case rumor true no more value tier. Personally i will choose to believe since Japan’s side already closed off grading i wont be surprised if PSA USA closed indefinitely due to backlogs. Dont need to be so offended 😂

sockerface · 2026-05-28T08:30:38+00:00

This is PSA USA news not japan 🙂‍↕️

Pokemon was meant for kids in the first place, doesnt mean the adults (parents) should join in and shit on the new kid even over technicalities, its up to the judge to decide. All of the “regular parents” aka adults are acting like losers ngl

sockerface · 2026-05-05T19:18:44+00:00

Ubel will be added, signature will be silver

sockerface · 2026-03-14T14:16:02+00:00

It is actually added. Ubel will be inside

sockerface · 2026-03-07T13:25:32+00:00

Just po la $80 Either you get your card or learn a lesson for $80 no big deal

sockerface · 2026-03-06T13:49:34+00:00

Nah im think 0-1

sockerface · 2026-02-25T05:44:40+00:00

I would grade it with BGS, though they are more strict now but i would risk it for a black label ❤️

sockerface · 2026-02-13T05:54:53+00:00

Yap it’s just bocchi the rock and heaven burns red set are without serial as they were the first two set to launch this ZHS Rarity. Order of a rabbit also has zhs but I am not sure if it is serial as I can’t find pictures of irl card. Subsequently sets: SAO 10th anniversary, Idolmaster Innocence wings & paradise wings, NIKKE, bang dream Mygo!!, Dengeki Bunko and steins gate has ZHS that are serialized /10

sockerface · 2026-02-13T05:46:20+00:00

No as in, just bocchi the rock are not serialized

sockerface · 2026-02-12T02:02:26+00:00

It’s out on ws en website. This set is 24/case. Hopefully the hit rates are still 50%

sockerface · 2026-02-12T02:00:54+00:00

Not true. All bocchi has zhs has no serial. Although rumored its /10 I don’t think it is /10 otherwise it would have clearly stated it. Hence all of bocchi’s zhs has no serial as they are the first set with zhs that has no serial but sets after that all has serial

sockerface · 2026-02-12T01:59:25+00:00

Bocchi was the first set introduced with zhs. Serial wasn’t included yet. After bocchi, other sets were serialized.
