@0_44_4 Yes!!! Sucks that they are the leaders in the industry while holding little accountability. I have to use them to sell most items but would definitely prefer TAG or if they changed to be more like them I would like that too.

@Pork_Knuckle I'm not a fan but they do have other sports. Here's their site: www.universalsportstreasures.com/

@@JLWStudyRoom wow $2900.00 that is pricey.

That's a shame I really enjoy their product when I purchased them. I do see their website up but I'm on card hiatus a little longer otherwise I would make a purchase.

Thanks 👍

That would be frustrating... the return on TAG vs PSA isn't there and you know your holding a PSA 9 but they won't grade properly. Maybe they'll buy out TAG too lol

@@JLWStudyRoomI think it’s totally possible TAG gets bought! Would make a lot of sense

Sounds like a complaint, I guess we ride together.

Yeah, bad on them for sure

The hope was a PSA 1 1986 rookie not a PSA 1 1990 mass produced card, at least give NM-MT for that crap card

Yes!!! Very dicey situation, I saw one guy online do it in seconds, I tried that method and cracked the very fabric of our universe.

@@JLWStudyRoom😂😂😂

I like the experiment of it... currently I'll trust the AI process over some of the graders at PSA, good luck on the results!

100% agree but maybe in some time they will be up there with the big boys??

Initially I thought it was fun but if you get a 20 card order it would be time consuming... maybe they can do a slip cover for those that like the surprise or do it for their channels?

It's a nice card unfortunately mine got a 4, a lot of scratches on it including a deep one on the back

Definitely, I keep hoping for them to be a top company... maybe pass BGS??

Smart move! Lol I was very disappointed with this box but maybe others had good luck. At the price for basketball I wouldn't recommend it.

Thanks and yes, I agree! It's tough when you need to resell some big cards in order to buy others for the PC, you have to use psa for that right now

Thanks and great to know... a bit ahead of my time, I didn't start following basketball until 1989 with Run TMC.

Lol 😆 yep! If you buy a case of 10 they guarantee 1 but it's probably a PSA Authentic quality based on this experience.

...in a 10. 😅

Same here! They have my business for PC cards 😀

Yes, he covered that and why he submitted these in particular.

Thanks!

These were PC cards, except Mcgwire, but just a curiosity

I assume these guys buy collections and then repackage for suckers... like me lol

@@JLWStudyRoom lol - all good - about the chase either way

This would be their S tier... at the time of think that's all they had. Also, I waited for a drop which is a bit cheaper.

I like the data points, just need to wait for a price drop to grade 8-10 cards. I get the name reputation but I’d rather have the data not an opinion.

@jbpoplockanddropit I agree with you. I prefer the 1000 point scale but the price is a bit high right now.

Agreed, it was a fun box but I had to buy Harper single.

Thanks!!!

At that time you had to use the suitcase... I think now they just send you a box, I don't recall 🤔

I think they go back a little further now 1990??

I think that was a 990 but I distracted myself while filming

Yep... hopefully people can learn from this mistake and others as seen on my channel

I feel like before grading, as a kid, it meant something

@@JLWStudyRoom yep..i know

Yeah, pretty crappy experience here. The downside of buying repacks.

The TAG slabs are slightly smaller and slightly thicker (1/4 inch vs 5/16 inch). Good luck with the grades!

I have been discussing some things with us common folks and they brought up some good things that TAG may not be able to see (I don't know for sure) such as the creasing, scratches, etc. OR they might not be so strict on those things. Either way I'm still in with TAG for my PC and PSA for the resells.

Definitely agree!!! TAG is getting my PC cards and PSA will be those I'm going to sell. Hopefully TAG sales catch up soon so I can only submit to them.

Honestly I'm glad you support them, and I hope what they claim is true, what I really would like you to do would be to Crack the TAG card and resubmit them to TAG again and compare the results.... that will tell us if they have real consistency ..... also if you think TAG will catch up to PSA I think that's very hard to believe.... because when you say that I don't really think you understand that 9 out of every slab sold every second is a PSA slab..... it would take years and years to even be half of psa... unless something monumental happened

Out of 10

Agreed, it would be a shock if they catch PSA. I really hope TAG is legit and not missing any key grading areas. I met someone at a show a couple months back and that's his plan to Crack TAG for PSA. I think someone else already did that too, it's very interesting to see and frustrating that the consistency between all are different.

Definitely my favorite part is knowing why the grade is what it is... 1000 points is a bit much but still useful.

Dumb... just dumb lol I really like TAG and was curious to see a better reason why I received the grades. Thanks for watching!

Thanks and go for it! I like them a lot and unfortunately dumped a lot of my lower graded cards from PSA out of frustration. Now I'm thinking I should have cracked them.

Thanks! This was a good time and will most likely do more in the future.

@aaronstone6980 I'm not saying it is true BUT it definitely feels real lol

@@WanderingWolf365 if what you say is right about PSA it makes all of their cards worthless.. You're no longer grading a card based on its individuality.

It's frustrating they offer chase cards so I would expect better condition, not a 10 but 8+ for sure. I didn't contact them instead I'll just stop purchasing from them. For Basketball I believe it was $450
