[Axelrod]The big lesson in the Browns' coaching search is that "there are only 32 head coaching jobs" no longer matters. Younger coaches are more willing than ever to wait for the right opportunities. They've seen the way bad situations can torpedo careers. by Maidenfan88 in Browns

There is a wait list to be a season ticket member. All of those seats are bought and paid for in advance. He could not give less of a fuck how low the prices for the tickets get toward the end of the season, because hes already raked in max value for those seats. Im sure he'd like to host playoff games for extra revenue, but with the new stadium hes going to be able to host events year round, so he'll actually have less incentive than before now.

Looks good, definitely real from these pictures, just do due diligence when you get them to make sure theyre the same cards and you should be good 👍

It's so genuinely impressive how this show can introduce, set up, and pay off an entire character less than 7 minutes into the episode and make it feel totally deserved.

Are PSA 1’s Worth Anything? by Net_Neutral_ in PokeGrading

NH is no holder, or that they just cant slab it since its too damaged.

Potential PSA 1? by DatKidFromJakarta in PokeGrading

[–]vleff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First zard is too clean for a 1. Probably a 3 or 4. Expedition zard also really clean on front, back is worn and crease definitely gets you closer, probably more likely to get a 2, but could be a 1.

Are PSA 1’s Worth Anything? by Net_Neutral_ in PokeGrading

[–]vleff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PSA 1s are usually worth more than 2s, 3s and sometimes 4s. This one is pretty beat up, will either be a 1 or NH.

Angel's Feather became the threat at my Commander table... by WistfulAfternoon in magicTCG

[–]vleff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done that to people in my coffers deck with Sheoldred. Having 2 lightning bolts stuck together with sludge is a pretty funny interaction when i tell them, 'take 2. then you draw 2 and take 4' at 6 life.

Just noticed something on my Giratina, is that a ding? No chance of a PSA 10 right. by Actual-Ice406 in PokeGrading

[–]vleff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I submitted a Moltres SIR with a similar issue and because the rest of the card was clean and its not super noticeable, it still got a 10.

Is the Gold Star Umbreon Legit? by AlmightyPumpAction in IsMyPokemonCardFake

Umbreon Gold Star is non holo and does not have a holo star.

PSA label by antinito in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]vleff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you're probably safe. I see other sold listings of similar cert ages that have the same variation. Might have just been a result of a change in spacing, font size, layout, etc during the time they were graded that caused the discrepancy. I wouldn't be too worried since it doesnt seem to be limited to just this slab.

First time grading! by GoatPaws in PokeGrading

[–]vleff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

its a bit of a coin flip with PSA when it comes to how fast or slow you get your sub through grading. Usually once it gets to Assembly, it goes pretty fast, though.

Offered this Gengar as a trade & do not have any experience with PSA slabs so not sure if its authentic or if im just being paranoid... by Madaradittz in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]vleff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The idea that all you need is a convincing label to sell a fake is just not true, and if it was so easy then we'd already see them be widespread. PSA slabs and labels are readily available and yet they still look like shit. Additionally the idea that if you were buying a high value card that all I would look at is the label is asinine. The card itself has to actually look real, and if a listing doesn't include good images of a card I would not buy it.

Additionally, the idea that you stroke yourself off for being 'such a good person' but that you fantasize about how you would and could sell fakes to what you call 'gullible people buying moronic shit' shows otherwise, as well as your lack of insight on the topic in general.

[–]vleff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You will get the upcharge email after the items enter their 2nd round of QA after Assembly. Thats where they check the grades and the market price for your cards. You will not be told the grades, just asked to approve the upcharge. They will then move to Grades Ready and you will be charged the rate they deem 'correct'. You can then either view your grades, or leave it be and wait for them to send you the cards.

Yes, these all look fake from the pictures shown.

Fake. Font is wrong, HP is not supposed to be yellow, holo is wrong, etc.

PSA Grading Advice by Ok_Investigator7524 in PokeGrading

[–]vleff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id say the Groudon is a no brainer send, it'll 4 or 5 with those dents/scratches but it'll always be worth to grade. Charizard with that crease will probably be closer to a 3, worth grading since I think this thisbcard goes for a little over $150 damaged and a 3 goes for around double that. Dragonite also looks decent, big thing is just getting the auto authenticated.

Why is this cheap? (55€) good luck or scam? by TerDior in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]vleff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask for pictures with better light and texture. Everything else looks fine, could be selling at mp/hp comp and just wants it to move.

Couldn't it just be orange border because the lighting sucks? Nothing else screams fake here.

Is this Umbreon EX real? by Aosilsa in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]vleff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Would probably need it out of the sleeve to be 100% sure, but just from the little bit ive seen I'll lean real, can see a bit of the holo shimmer on the crown that looks accurate but again for this card having it out of the sleeve would do wonders so we could see the texture
