  • @JessLuBera
    @JessLuBera Місяць тому +36

    This is my new favorite content, awesome idea and series, Rev! My personal feelings about indents side more with CGC than the PSA standards. I don't mind a minor indent and think scratching and whitening is much more egregious to lessening the visual appeal of a card. It's crazy how strict PSA treats those, usually an auto-6.
    My guesses, just to have on record for the next vid:
    Blastoise GX - 10
    Gold Zekrom - 8
    Gengar Mimikyu - 10
    Articuno - 8
    Skarmory - 6
    Lugia EX - 9
    Charizard EX - 6 (If CGC, that'd be an 8)
    Latios-Latias - 7
    Jirachi - 9
    Dragonite Delta - 8
    Lillie - 10
    Skyla - 8
    Snorlax - 10 (I think they miss the dent)
    Ninetales V - 10
    Kabutops 1E - 9
    Palkia EX - 7

      Why do you say 8 if CGC? Just curious, never heard that before.

    • @JessLuBera
      @JessLuBera Місяць тому +3

      @ln9475 There's kind of a card grader joke that with CGC, "if there's a dent or it's bent, it's getting sent".
      Each grading company has it's own opinions and standards regarding what qualifies as damaged. PSA is in my opinion, a little ridiculous about the tiniest of dents and will auto-6 a card that looks like a 10 with anything like that. CGC doesn't consider that kind of imperfection as critically, so they'd probably give a tiny dent a less harsh grade.

    @kenmei18 Місяць тому +18

    as a TCG seller there are quite a few buyers that do not know about the TCG condition guide. I will often show it to them if there is ever an issue and they are pretty floored. I try to be in favor of the customer and give a bit of a refund if there's ever an issue but its helpful to familiarize yourself what is what when it comes to NM/LP/MP/HP/DMG. Recently, I have started to post pictures on any cards that are questionable or of a certain value, so there is less of a mystery about what will be received and no difference of opinions as to what is what. If it is close I will typically learn towards the lower grade, again, to favor the buyer... It's nice that you bring this to light though, so people's expectations can be a bit more clear.

    • @kenmei18
      @kenmei18 Місяць тому +6

      to put a little bit more perspective on things, all the way down to PSA 7 is "NM" -- so there's that too.
