      Its just the nature of not having half grades. A lot of these grades seem reasonable and in line with PSA standards though. The Hitmonchan and Blastoise that got 9's seem to be a bit high. The Togetic is definitely within 60/40 centering for a 10. The Alakazam probably has a dent/ding, so its an auto 6. There is nothing crazy off with this submission. If people want more nuance between 9/10 grades, then they have to go to BGS/CGC where a lot of PSA 10's would be 9.5's. People should be buying the card and not the grade though.

    This reminds me of a video I watched of a guy that resubmitted some cards he got from PSA to SGC. PSA graded his cards like a 4-7 depending on which card it was. When he resubmitted to SGC it was 8-10. I feel like the quality of PSA has gone down because of how many people they are hiring for the backlog. I would maybe resubmit that Alakazam cause I don't think it is a 6 or whatever.

There's a reason I personally haven't gotten into Pokémon's TCG, and it's stuff like this. It's so dang expensive, and PSA is cheeky enough to charge you MORE because a card is worth more. Last I checked, that card isn't theirs, so I don't know what gives them the right to some of its value. I'll always appreciate Pokemon's TCG, especially the DP era that I grew up with, but I'll just never be able to hardcore collect it in the current market for it.

    Were those marks on the Steelix from the rubber bands being too tight around the cards when they were sent in? That is legit one of my concerns whenever I grade with PSA.

    My thoughts about PSA is that its not justified to pay them to do an OBJECTIVE grade on a something anyone can look at for themselves.

      @tonyth123 Рік тому

      An accepted standard of grading from the community.
      They also box/seal them within tamperproof cases, guaranteeing quality and allowing cards to be sold for higher prices online where full inspection for gem mint cards is pretty much impossible.

    Found a box with my old cards collected between 1998 and 2004 that I've kinda lost when I moved house and realised I was rich 🤣 most of them were 9's and 10's. Had a 1999 charizard that sadly was damaged abit in the corner, but had a secondary one in my fire deck and sold it for a lot of money

    Got a stack of old base set cards. This video has made not want to bother getting them graded. You have seen things yourself where something has got a high grade with visible flaw and the opposite like the alakzam. So busy they don't look to be grading properly and that throws the validity of the whole grading system out of the window.
