    Kinda crazy to me how straightforward and knowledgeable your videos are and it’s genuinely surprising to me that you don’t have a much bigger following than you do currently. Much love and keep grinding 💪🏼

    This may be my favorite video yet ❤. You are exactly where I am with grading. I just started myself, also send anywhere from 4-6 cards a month and do it all through GameStop. Good luck!

    Hey, Gabey!
    One thing that has helped me gem is a 10x jewelers loupe, which is what they use. Definitely use it for the corners. I hope this helps!

    Two things. I have learned that I shouldn't be too picky with grading, the idea is if it has a chance to gem send it in. I have the same goal of once a month. Also get a microfiber cloth to clean before you put it in a new sleeve for submitting.

    I'm on my third submission to GameStop. No paperwork to fill out. No guessing card values.
    6 sports cards back and I'm at 50/50. 3 graded 8, 3 graded 10.
    The 3 that were graded 8 were all from the 90's so rather pleased considering what many new cards are getting.

      Were your three submissions via GameStop all sports cards, Pokemon, or any other TCG?
      Did the GameStop employees make any mistakes?
      What was the turn-around time for each submission?

    GameStop is nice and all, as i have heard nothing but outstanding reviews, even though the majority of the reviews are TCG submissions, but with that said, a lot of you are saying you will submit 4-6 or more every month via GameStop. If that's the case, then i highly suggest you sign-up for the annual membership, because PSA runs monthly special that would beat GameStop prices easily.

    Have submitted two cards through Game Stop and got 2 psa 10s, I’m so happy with the results that I just dropped off two more. I plan to submit two every few months and see how I do from there, hopefully more gems.

      @@Mrsaltypickle Turn-around times are all over the place, as when GameStop started submitting to PSA, they were indeed getting submissions back in 30 days max. I believe PSA gave GameStop submissions priority, at least initially, but not anymore, as every GameStop manager I've spoken to says, "Submission returns are taking at least 45 business days." At the same time, I have seen ordinary individuals submitting multiple orders nd getting them back fairly quickly.

    still crazy to me that people are essentially gambling by grading with PSA, they dont tell you why you card got the grade etc. Grade with TAG Grading! Full reports on you card, why it got the grade it did, plus high res pictures of it in its slab.

      I agree with all of that, but for more valuable and/or expensive cards, you are taking a chance of your cards getting lost, damaged, stolen by an GameStop employee.

      @ 10000% agree there isn't a company in America that doesn't hire as many dbags then Gamestop,. If you have a stack of 1 to 8 cards with less than $50 value it's a good option though imo. I'm sure they will raise the price to $23-25 a card to match non psa membership pricing at some point
