  • This was my first time sending cards in with PSA and I believe it was a very valuable learning experience. Let me know in the comments if this was a mistake or not!

    There’s a crease on the corner of that MewTwo that’s CLEAR AS DAY bruv 😅 No clue how you missed that. As far as I know any card that has a crease is an automatic 4 or less

      I have no idea myself haha it's almost like I creased it during the process of sending it or something. Or I'm just oblivious lol

    I'm very nervous to send my vintage cards in due to getting a disappointing grade. I'll be looking mine over with a magnifying glass I think.

      If they're for your collection I think you should do it for preservation! If they are clearly in bad shape, maybe hold off.

    I had this pop up on my search. I like that this was more recent than what I’ve come across. I got vintage I was thinking about sending to PSA, I’ve sent a few prior. But now I’m on the I wanna see my sub-grades just food for thought. Great returns and great grades 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

    So in terms of grade, the card could be a 10 in corners/edges/centering but have a 5.5 in surface and they only give about .5-1 above the lowest graded parameter. so the theoretical card would come back a 6 even though it is a 10 in 3 out of 4 parameters

      Ahh, that makes sense. That's a bummer! You'd think if your card was 10/10/10/5 it would grade around an 8 for overall condition. Thanks for the information!

      @@SwansEmporium if your card was 10/10/10/5 the best you could get would be a six, no matter what

    Really interesting. I want to send in my best childhood holos but grading is expensive!

      It can definitely add up. PSA's cheapest service is about $15 a card!

    That PSA 4 Mewtwo had a crease bottom right, from what I've seen from PSA creases are automatic 4 and below

    • @SwansEmporium

      Yeah, I noticed that after recording. Huge bummer! Wouldn’t have sent off if I had noticed beforehand. Need to spend more time inspecting the cards for sure.
