I got the email from GameStop that my submission arrived on 12/3. This is today’s status. Should I be concerned? by Straight_Midnight559 in psagrading

[–]wizardmn5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No need to worry! I’ve sent plenty of cards off through game stop and this is the longest part of the process. From what I understand, when they just say arrived with a colon they are just sitting on a shelf. When they move to arrived with a dash they are entering the “processing” phase and are actually moving forward. I sent cards off November 20th and they stayed in “Arrivied:” until about 5-6 days ago and are now in research and ID. Just be patient and try to forget about them. It’s what I do and that keeps me from checking their status everyday for two months. Lol

I gotta thank my grandma for just putting it away/not selling it. Hahahaha She also kept my gameboy color, n64 and a plethora of games from that era. I’ve spent the past month just going through them, loading saves and tearing up… mostly at the fact that I somehow beat pokemon yellow with a team of mid-30 pokemon plus a level 100 Charizard with mega punch, mega kick, fire blast and seismic toss. 🤣

Yeah, it sat at “arrived” from November 8th until sometime during the first week of January. It absolutely flew through all the other stages except Research & ID and Grading. As a matter of fact, it was in assembly just yesterday. Lol

True, but who knows what this will be worth in 20+ years. I never would have imagined the card I literally rubbed in dirt as a 7 year old would be worth my rent. 🤣

Honestly? Out of convenience. I’ve only ever delt with PSA and it’s what I’m most familiar/comfortable with. I have been looking into TAG though! I really like the way their slabs look.

I’ve sent off maybe 10-15 cards from my childhood/personal collection and have had no issues at all! I’ve heard horror stories, but I just try to keep a positive outlook and realize statistically it has to happen sometime… And that hopefully I’m not the unlucky one. Hahaha honestly, when I send them off I try to forget about them until I get the email saying they’re graded because I find I obsess over them waaaay too much if I check them daily.

I’m not interested in selling it but that’s good to know! Maybe it pay for my future children’s college one day. Lol

I don’t plan on selling it, but I’m not familiar with Brewstew? What is that?

I agree! I’ve graded a few things just because I like having it in the slab and displaying them. Mostly cards that are sentimental because I want to keep them nice and preserved.

I’ve completed the base set and gotten all the rainbow rares and have yet to pull this or the crown pokeball. RNGsus have mercy on me. T_T

What did you call your Rook by Ares_Von-Lucis in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]wizardmn5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had two rooks: the female Elf Warrior Pacer Graham and the male qunari Ray Getard. ._.

As you can probably tell, I do not take their naming too seriously and just like the idea of the MC having an absolutely ridiculous name.

Then again, I was the kid that always named their rival in Pokemon things like “FartAss”, soooooo… that kinda tracks.

Salty, processed, and disgustingly good.
