Absolutely incredible gem rate!! Congrats on so many big boy 10's!! My personal opinion - a quick Stryker video makes it feel like I'm missing out on something. I love the slow reveal, taking your time to talk about it, doing it at your own pace Stryker videos. No such thing as too much Stryker!!
You are the king of breaks so you know when PSA sees your order they are like well… maybe the gems should be a plenty. Lol. I would gem them all. Your the best!!
Cards like the Black Gold Julio are the reason subgrades or a simple grading breakdown would give so much more credibility to grading as a whole. Why do we have to guess why a card is a 9 instead of a 10.
I have a psa 10 black border black gold Julio. But also have a lot of PSA 9 black golds that I thought would gem. Those inserts are gorgeous but savagely hard to gem.
Nice Job Stryker! The first few grades told you that you had gotten a realistic grader at PSA which is total luck of the draw anymore, cause looks like the QA1 step is currently just being skipped. See baseball card collector vid for example of what a beat down can look like when you get someone completely uncalibrated.
Great gem rate. So one thing to note when inspecting cards. Edges always get overlooked. That Julio gold black gold - here's betting it's got a rough edge somewhere under magnification. That card looks perfect centering and corners wise. Surface and edges count too. I find edge issues on a lot of my cards that I hold back even if the card looks gem everywhere else. The loupe is essential when looking at edges.
You got hosed on the Julio Gold Black-Gold brother. IMO, not saying at all that this reality, but it sure feels like PSA knows some of these big cards in 10's will fetch $$, so they give you a 9. I am I crazy for feeling like that?
I am a big fan of this quicker reveal, Stryker. Please adopt this reveal style going forward. And I am a big fan of your post-reveal discussion of the reveal as a whole. Overall, great video.
Hell ya, on the Tork /5!! Great job all around. I wish I could stop spending card sale profits on more wax as opposed to saving for submissions; I'm working on that, though.
Hey Stryker what a return my man. Wow 5/5 red gem - Dazzzzaaammmm. Love the fast reveal. Man I can’t wait to finally send my favorite cards to be graded.
I wish PSA would provide grading notes with your order so you can see why some cards got 8s... like its impossible to tell sometimes why they look just as good as the 10s or 9s.
Congrats on all your 2022 topps. What I opened up clearly had a dull blade and one side was completely frayed. Two boxes wasted. Glad to see maybe it was just me.
That Slabbing mentality, 90% come back a 10 and that one that comes back in a 8 and you have no idea why, bothers you forever. PSA's sadistic pleasure. By the way, I have had zero success re-subbing numbered cards, especially bigger cards. Pretty sure they look at their database now that they take pics
Lol. I see the card your using. Makes me laugh every time... 😆 Great stuff Stryker!! I'm putting a PSA order in really soon. I watched your video on submission and I'm confident I will do well. Thank you for your input and knowledge!!!
Amazing sub man! Definitely prefer the slower reveal, but I just appreciate you sharing! Also that Julio black gold definitely deserves a resub. I got a 10 on the black and it looks worse than that
Somebody just a pulled the 4/5 spencer torkelson ! Like yours that’s sooo cool ! You have 5/5 and I just find his video and he got the 4/5 like wtf !! Hahah dope!
You have better luck than most with PSA. Congrats! I was considering sending in my Julio Independence Day and some other cards but I'd require the minimum grade 10 route because the cards look perfect and I'm not playing the bad mood grader game and getting a 9. Thanks for sharing!
Congrats on all the gems. A lot of people are missing the thick print lines on the back. Ive been grading all kinds of card’s including base. Been making like 3-5 X on every gem I’ve sold from 2022. 🔟🔟🔟🔟🔟
Love the videos strike!! When i do reveal slab grades,, just put them face down that way you dont have to mess with cards.. and i turn them like a sloth...lol.. and thats a nice lot.. p.s. haven't watched in a while but i would love to see julio pc and more.. but keep the grind and stay blessed with success and nothing less 💯
I do like it here and watching your vids. So don't take this wrong but im not sure I buy the blind reveal 😀 I mean how can you not look? I always look when the grades pop! Also, love the quicker pace. Impressive gem rate
I pulled that same Cj Abrams Stars of Mlb red parallel as yours. It’s the second red I’ve pulled with the other being a series 1 Juan Soto chrome red /75. They are definitely a hard pull when you look at the amount of Update you opened to get your Abrams. I would say I lucked out with mine seeing how it was pulled out of the 1 of 3 hangers that were left just chillin at my local Walgreens about two months ago. I have opened probably 30-40 blasters and hangers combined total. Of course you’ve pulled some serious 🔥out of the cases you’ve opened, in fact I’d say I’ve never seen someone pull so many cool parallels and numbered monsters as you have.
I'm here in SoCal, I submitted a 30 card submission, had a previous PSA grader look over my cards and he said at a minimum, I'd get atleast 20 cards back at a 10. Went to my local LCS who submits a lot and he said the same thing.... well, 9 came back PSA 10. Not sure what you do but I follow all the necessary steps and still get screwed over. I'm pretty much done with PSA.
The pop report on Sapphire is very interesting Game rate is super good so far on Bobby true rookie but the Julio gem rate is much worse. I say this as someone who sent in both and got a 10 on Bobby and 9 on Julio. Always interesting. Bobby must have been in the center of the sheet where Julio might have been near the edge.
I’ve pulled like multiple Julio & Witt SP / SSP’s and other awesome parallels from update and I have yet to pull a gold Witt or Julio . I pull so many awesome cards out of update but wrong damn players!! Gah frustrated 😢😢 Update grades sooo well both Witt Sp & SSP both came back psa 10s!!
Hey Stryker, which Bobby Witt SP is worth more? I have the series 2 SP #660 that i pulled last year. The update SP is definitely a better looking card but the #660 SP came out first so I'm not sure which one is more valuable. Thanks!
How do you determine what your going to send off and determine what you think it will get because I’m getting stuff graded for the first time and I’m wondering what it will grade. Love these your gem rate is crazy
Great cards! Having to guess why the card graded the way it did is definitely an area of growth for the hobby. Kind of a weird process. You don't get to know who graded your cards or why they graded them the way they did. But they basically call the shots in the hobby.
this dude has to have the most unique, approachable, and weird/quirky personality. departure from most douchy UA-cam breakers or grade revealers.
Agreed 100% makes the videos so fun and being genuine is rare to find
@@wnorton4916 he's such an odd-ball dude but in a really cool way.
Ya I dig the vibes 😂
Trying to reach out to people about getting rid of my whole collection. Mainly retail got around 65000 cards
@@sweetnibblits2263 will you take $1 buck?
I like the fast reveal. You know how it is my time is limited and there are a lot of PSA reveals on YT.

Awesome cards in that submission! Fast reveal the way you do it is much more preferable.
Why you have high gem rate but not me?!?!?
Awesome reveal! PSA doing you right.
Those 2022 Update SP were all very clean. Bunch of 10s.

I'd LOVE an explanation sheet from them.

I'll have to pull out the old magnifier and check it out.
I like the quick reveals better...just like ripping a Band-Aid off

Oh man this is fantastic!!!! Big Strider guy too over here 🤙🤙🤙🔥🔥🔥
Your REVEALS are always great to watch !! Love the reactions 😜😜
Loved this video Stryker! I need to start sending cards in for grading!
Hell ya, on the Tork /5!! Great job all around. I wish I could stop spending card sale profits on more wax as opposed to saving for submissions; I'm working on that, though.
You and me both!
Sweet cards. Not sure about the regional thing because I keep pulling nice Torkelson cards in CA. Pulled 1/1 and several other low #rd.
Congrats on the gem rate…love seeing those awesome cards you have come back from psa…I liked the quicker reveal too.
I love the speed at which you reveal the cards. Great job! Great grader too.

Yes!
love this quick approach
Love the reveal style/speed.
So freaking cool you got a 10 on the red Spencer!!! Congrats Stryker!
Grats on the son of torkel, he's gonna pop off this year. I have a true gold 1st auto.
Congrats on all your 2022 topps. What I opened up clearly had a dull blade and one side was completely frayed. Two boxes wasted. Glad to see maybe it was just me.
Quick reveal FTW
Bro your bloopers are the best!

Lol. I see the card your using. Makes me laugh every time... 😆 Great stuff Stryker!! I'm putting a PSA order in really soon. I watched your video on submission and I'm confident I will do well. Thank you for your input and knowledge!!!
LOL thanks. Good luck on your sub!
Love the quicker reveal. Congrats on the gems!
Amazing sub man! Definitely prefer the slower reveal, but I just appreciate you sharing!
Also that Julio black gold definitely deserves a resub. I got a 10 on the black and it looks worse than that
Heck yeah! Congrats, definitely got some bangers! Your psa video really helped me with my first psa submission.
Glad to hear it!
great return. so many gems
Hey Stryker I bought a blaster of stadium club and pulled a chrome Julio which has been selling raw for around $65!
Congrats on a great submission
Thanks!
Killing it as usual with these submissions! I actually love the slow build, give me some drama lol
Thanks for the feedback
Somebody just a pulled the 4/5 spencer torkelson ! Like yours that’s sooo cool ! You have 5/5 and I just find his video and he got the 4/5 like wtf !! Hahah dope!
I pulled that Correa SP few weeks ago and kept it for PC and now I want to grade it after seeing this Video!!

Break the case on that one Torkelson blue sapphire and resubmit it it’s got to be at 10 if not at 9
Always fun to watch!!
On careful examination by Stryker the 10’S just keep on coming…❤️ to watch you do well 🇨🇦
Just here to see the Bobby mullet gem up
I like the fast reveal. Well done.
I’ve always liked the slow reveal 👍
Awesome sub Stryker and congrats on the fantastic Gemrate. Did you get upcharged on the red Tork? Thx for sharing
No, I didn't get upcharged.
Am going to the Mets and Mariners game in Port St. Lucie Fla. March 26 😊
I recently purchased a Julio A&G X PSA 10. Not a really valuable card but definitely an awesome looking one!
that torkelson is badass. I just hit a MVP caliber /10 and I hope to gem it.
Congrats man! Great grades!

Where do those throwback Thursday cards come from? Is it a stand alone set of Topps or subset what?

I've seen quite a few Julios get pulled and most are OC. Should keep the pop low and value high for PSA 10s
Lol! Love the intro !!
I would consider 20cents a card if buying whole collection which would include my 1/5 shohei
Prefer the faster reveal, and box opening
Damn! Great gem percentage! Congrats!
Thanks!
Sweet grades mam love the sapphire
Crack that black gold julio at least 2 more times if need be.
I’ve pulled like multiple Julio & Witt SP / SSP’s and other awesome parallels from update and I have yet to pull a gold Witt or Julio . I pull so many awesome cards out of update but wrong damn players!! Gah frustrated 😢😢
Update grades sooo well both Witt Sp & SSP both came back psa 10s!!
Looked like the Torkelson Red #/5 said Topps Chrome Update not sapphire as it should say????
Great success 🙌 congratulations on the gems sir 💎 👏
Thank you 🙌
@Stryker Breaks welcome sir look forward to more awesome videos...just started my channel one step at a time 👍
Where’s the Willie Mays Hank Aarons and Mantles who are these players ?
How do u grade all of those cards 😭 isn’t it like mad expensive
Hey Stryker, which Bobby Witt SP is worth more? I have the series 2 SP #660 that i pulled last year. The update SP is definitely a better looking card but the #660 SP came out first so I'm not sure which one is more valuable. Thanks!
Need torkelson to start hitting
Is that the foil strider game within?
do you have any of those Stryker buffed man cards to giveaway?
I hope Tork isn't a bust.
How about the bobby sapphire debut
🔥🔥
I like how you do your psa videos. You really don't know the grades beforehand.some channels its so obvious.
How do you determine what your going to send off and determine what you think it will get because I’m getting stuff graded for the first time and I’m wondering what it will grade. Love these your gem rate is crazy
Look up the cards you want to send in both PSA 9 and 10 and then calculate grading, shipping and ebay fees and see if it makes sense.
@@StrykerBreaks thanks
Is it true PSA charges More the pricier the card compared to some other grading companies? That’s what I’m hearing.
Do you run your breaks as an LLC?
Great cards! Having to guess why the card graded the way it did is definitely an area of growth for the hobby. Kind of a weird process. You don't get to know who graded your cards or why they graded them the way they did. But they basically call the shots in the hobby.
What PSA level did you submit at? 19?
Noice!!!
did they up charge you on the tork?
No. I've actually never been up charged.
🤣😍😎
Go slow for big cards
i pulled a JROD red 5/5 futures hi-fi mojo i love your Tork
Sweet! I still haven't sent anything off that came back a gem smh
