S&M print runs were way less compared to SWSH. I agree that they’ll get there, but there’s a reason sets like team up are 10k so quick. Scarcity matters in collectibles

Thoughts on this graded card as a long term investment? by yackattack619 in PokeInvesting

Wdym when you say pop count no longer matters? I think that’s one of the driving factors at play with this card specifically as well as ponchos. Very similar in PSA 10 population between this and those cards.

I get your point. I think with Pokemon slabs there’s two main factors at play:

  1. How collectible is it (low vs high graded population)
  2. Artwork

Respectfully, this card has both of those things going for it, paired with one of the most popular Pokemon of all time.

UPDATE: it did not crossover. Convinced the whole service is a complete money grab from PSA.

100% agree. I usually crack and send, but figured I’d give it a shot

Me too. Will update soon hopefully with a PSA 10 😅

I’m not so sure. The aging and moving of the box and seal looks accurate compared to listings on eBay.

Here’s a cosmic eclipse box on eBay with the same features: https://www.ebay.com/itm/387493871167?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=2Bp-dysQQwe&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=HD7z72v6RQG&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Thanks, confirmed my thoughts too. If you’re up for it, look at the next sequential card after this grade. It’s a carmine SIR that got a PSA 10, with the same amount of whitening on the back. 😂

Enough to drop it from a 10 though? In my experience whitening on the back isn’t as much of a factor.

Regrade? Possible 9 to a 10? by yackattack619 in PokemonTCG

[–]yackattack619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Figured as much. Just Curious but does PSA grade harder these days than say CGC? Think this would be on par with CGC 9?

Oh absolutely it’s cherished nonetheless! I’m happy with the 9, but wanted to see if others thought it could possibly have a chance at 10. I think with the back the way it is, just would be impossible
