Thanks he takes forever to get to the point
thanks u saved 2:35 minutes of my life
Ty so much unnecessary fluff at the beginning
Great post! Informative with practical advice. Thank you for sharing 👍
Very helpful, thanks for sharing 👍
Really appreciate it, thank you for watching!
@@collectorsimpactI have a similar issue I sent a pack to psa that wasn’t in there system and it said no grade voucher no specific info no holder do not holder I don’t get why they rejected it it was past Research and ID and it was in grading for two months then they ended up shipping it back and then the next day they said they knew what it was and charged the full amount
Nice video man. I guess I just have a suggestion. If your video was brighter it would look cleaner cut and better to watch. Thanks for this though needed the advice.
I don't have any graded cards but this was great information thank you
Thank you for the feedback and for watching. If you ever decide to get some cards graded, I wish you the best of luck. It's a fun hobby for sure.
PSA could be making so much more money if they accepted restored cards and just give it a different label and/or knock the grade down big time. Because that's what CGC does with grading comics. Everything's accepted. Just be prepared for an ultra low grade or a different label if it's been tampered with.
I bought a iron man marvel onslaught ultra card signed by Stan lee at a local card shop and I can’t get it graded because it was trimmed, I know I can’t get it graded but I don’t care because it is still worth quite a bit just because it is signed by Stan lee
Great info 👍
I’ve heard some people resend their rejected cards back and get them graded successfully.
Yep I've heard the same thing. Kinda messed up since you pay the fee twice, and lose all that time.
Yes I’ve heard same it’s all a scam , these companies eventually will be held accountable for grading fakes , along with just having regular joe shmoooo grading the cards !!! Eventually graded cards will be worth the same as a custom slab
Good to know ThanX !
tysm this helped a lot i’m doing research on grading cards so i can get cards graded
Thank you for the feedback, really glad it was helpful. Good luck with your cards!
@@collectorsimpact thank you so much!
Thank you ✌️🔥
Nice video, I would buy that blastoise 100% if I saw it for sale knowing it was sharpeed lol, I have a massive collection and add whatever I can, so I don’t care about resale value.
🤣😂
Good stuff
PSa should say authentic and add trimmed on the slab since you paid for a slab .
I remember some shady folks popping up in the shop on the regular.
Yep, anytime a quick buck can be made, it attracts some fun characters. Luckily it's pretty hard to fake a rare card, but it doesn't stop people from trying.
C'mon people wheres the 👍s!? Nice job DK, the production is getting great. So, just fakes in Pokémon and Magic?
Thanks John, appreciate it bud! Naw there fake issues too for sports cards for sure. Maybe I'll make a vid on those one day. The marvel stuff doesnt have a big problem with fakes, yet. There wasn't much incentive in the past as they were mostly affordable. Maybe that'll change.
One question I had, was what if the card has gone through many years and just became naturally faded and/or damaged? I have many childhood cards that, overtime, just became damaged due to time itself.
That is considered normal wear but would severely affect its grade but wouldn’t be rejected
Blastoise would be a good one for a master set binder
I wonder if the kid who sharpied the Blastoise did that so it wouldn't be disqualified from Pokemon tournaments. Those white spots on the back would have made it easy to know when that card was going to be pulled from prize cards or the deck.
My charizard took minor bottom damage from an ultra pro one touch. Just enough to make me want to color match it.. but they should seriously make a touch up marker, patent pending.
i am genuinely offended by the sight of that Blastoise lol
yea the surface looks ALMOST flawless, there was a VERY SMALL scratch on it that i didnt notice until i re-watched the video it shows in the light, i have a 1st Edition Holo-Foil Lapras from the fossil set that has that issue
i personally wouldnt say that re-coloring it was what destroyed it, but the fact it was ripped with some of the white exposed, that would kill any potential of it being any higher than a 5
Randomly stumbled across this channel...
Fake cards are all over the place and it hurts to see when people fall for them.... For example.... When my roommate managed to get a hold of some old pokemon cards, I had my doubts as to their authenticity and found out quickly that they were fake... I am a weirdo that does collect fake cards, but it's to show others what to look out for and not to be fooled by these fake cards.
I'm scared to death that cards I kept in screw downs will fall outside the size standards!
I think also they may of started doing the same for cards that are sun damaged, will find out when my sun damaged zard comes back next month :)
Oh dang I hope not, though I could see them doing that. Let us know when it comes back in.
Any response?
@@magicfilms6008 my cards are still not back from PSA yet :P thanks for reminding me tho i need to reply in this :P there currently marked as "grading"
@@gnarlykill6373 back yet
@@whyFLASHi tried finding this message! got them back about 4 months ago or more, they graded my sun damaged zard got a vg4 :)
My inverted card back Charizard got rejected, probably because of the stupid cut rules. Pretty annoying, because they do designate inverted card backs.
that´s a good thing ^^ can people stop this! :/ fakes and all scams whit cards :/ great video bro :D
Thank you! Fully agree, I can't stand fake cards on the market as they cast doubt on the hobby. I'm glad PSA and other graders work diligently to detect them.
@@collectorsimpact 😁👊
It does loose a lot of value even for raw cards if it has sharpie on it
Great binder card but only at DMG price range. My opinion obviously. I haven't resold thousands but I have sold hundreds, the condition is everything. Even with "binder cards"
PSA really is the gold standard for grading. Many collectors won’t touch any cards graded by anyone other than PSA.
With all the fails they've had lately. Yup.
Beckett is actually better than PSA.
@@Johnnyy832 I think beckett is perfect for sports cards and psa for pokemon and the rest
I have a question what if you stick a magic card into a yugioh card would PSA reject it or still grade it and label it as magic card in yugioh card?
Wow I have never seen someone color out a Pokémon card.
I still go for the blastoise 🤚
Lol. Rudy brought me here.
I've got 3 first gens, Squirtle-ghastly and a rhydon do they all have the little 1 or is that only on sum? The ones I got don't have it so does that mean it's a fake card or what the dealio withhh that??
Off topic but I have a question. When was the last year that Topps included unwrap bubblegum in their baseball cards?
1989
If you've had cards in screw down holder that can flatten a card as well. They will turn that card down to.
They'd likely tag it as damaged or indented and grade it as a PSA 1 or 2.
I honestly would probably still buy that blastoise 😂
Duh lol. That card damaged is still worth like $500
@@RichieWilliams97 for real?
@@jesseshaw60 absolutely
I always wanted a blastoise so I probably would also
Nerds
not sure why they still use the term wax packs for sports cars since they stopped using wax sealed packs back in the early 90's
So pretty much PSA rejects cards that people tried to touch up on their own🤣 got it lol that should be pretty obvious collectors don’t like anything that isn’t fully authentic. Otherwise what’s the point?🤷🏻♂️
Yeah for sure, but that's one of the major draws for buying a graded card, knowing it's not been touched up or PSA would have caught it.
The only thing odd is how they sometimes reject cards for being outside of the minimum size requirements. They can reject pack fresh cards for that, and it's hard to mitigate it. It's rare, but it happens, and when it does it's annoying lol.
Thank you very much for watching!
Do you still get charged the grading fee or just shipping to return?
They still charge the fee
@@80sCardCollector the ultimate hustlers lmfao
The holo on the blastoise looks painted aswell
I have about 50 garbage pail kids cards ungraded for sale ,if graded some have sold for over 1000$ lately and I have a lot of those
Yeah in high grades not just any grade
Would you be able to carefully remove the ink on the blastoise using an ethanol/acetone solvent?
I'm not sure, that's a good question though. It's seeped into the paper itself; my guess is that would be extremely tricky. Plus it might still be flagged as altered if the process leaves any traces at all.
You can remove it with rubbing alcohol but not totally and it can be tricky and damage the paper
I can’t take my eyes off that base set venasaur how much u want for it lol u got any base set packs for sale I want to open one fossil pack before I die lmao
New subscriber here
Thank you!
What will your account say if they reject your card? Also will it still be moving through all the steps?
yes it will and it will be snet back in a card saver with the label attached. I have gotten 2-3 cards back to not meeting the size requirement. PSA won't charge for size requirement failures but will if they reject it for trimming. not sure about the other rejection reasons
what is ur card case called for them
PWCC got thousands of trimmed cards into PSA holders. PSA is a weak operation compared to SGC in the Tuxedo Slab era.
Atleast cgc grades inked cards
If it gets rejected do you still have to pay for the grading service?
Honestly that's a good question as I've experienced it both ways. I think technically you are supposed to be charged since they had to undergo the grading process in order to reject the card. But sometimes if the grader is having a good day they don't add it to the invoice. But yeah, as a general rule it's usually charged.
@@collectorsimpact that's crazy. I smell corruption all over PSA
I threw a big box of them magic cards in the trash can...
Dang, hope they weren't old ones, some can be very expensive.
@@collectorsimpact they looked just like his and others I have looked up now... i didnt know they where worth anything..
Woops. Hopefully you didn’t throw away anything too valuable lol.
After looking some up I did throw away some expensive cards Darn... live and learn ..
Will psa slab cards taped together
How much for the touched up blastoise if you still have it🤣
What about pressing out creases? 🤔
I think they label is as 'Altered'. They will slab it but not give it a grade
Beta is the second magic set not the first
Would they not grade my card if I submit in a top loader?
They used to be very strict about that, but they recently made it to where top loaders are accepted, just not preferred.
I recently submitted cards to SGC using top loaders because I feel like top loaders protects the card better than semi rigid and they didn't have an issue with it. I did however emailed them prior to submitting and SGC said semi rigid is preferred, but top loaders is ok. Just thought I'd comment here so people know that its ok with SGC using top loaders.
Scrape the blue off with knife, or simply tear it off, or burn it. Why wouldn't they grade it then. It's would just be lower grade cause damaged
Why is PSA so highly regarded when the font is ugly, Slab feels cheap, and it’s opaque for what? Beckett and CGC look and feel like it’s worth it.
apparently PSA and other grading services HAVE accidentally graded the odd fake lol
At the end you said 99.9999 if graded by psa... but what about fake psa slabs? I've heard of them. Not sure if I have ever seen them
Yeah that's a good point. There are fake slabs out there, but it's usually easy to tell the difference. The labels have security water marks along with proprietary fonts and inks. And the real cases are branded with PSA in the corners and are very consistent in their quality. There are other indicators too, but those are red flags; if you don't see the correct labels or the PSA branding on the cases. I might make a video on this subject now that you mention it :)
@@collectorsimpact hey another random question (sorry. Just got back in the hobby about a month ago when I found out I was having a baby boy. Started wanting to so all the stuff I did as a kid again. Last time I collected was 1996) but if you send in an encased card like from flawless, does psa grade the card or is the case counted as part of the card?
@@joeshaver1104 That's awesome, and congrats! Not exactly sure what flawless is, but typically PSA does count a sealed cards packaging as part of the card if submitted that way. For example, sometimes you can get promo card that is sealed in a clear plastic pack from the factory. If you submit it for grading without removing the packaging, they'll grade the packaged card as a whole and encapsulate it in a special capsule fit for sealed product. If you just want the card itself graded and slabbed, you have to remove any factory packaging from around it first, and then put it in a penny sleeve and toploader/card saver before sending it in for grading. Hope that helps.
@@collectorsimpact it does and thank you. He will be here mid July. Can't wait. (I'm 38 so maybe I waited a little too long for the first one). Good to know. Treat encased cards like the whole thing is the card. I'm building a few base sets from the year he was concieved. Topps, update, chrome, panini mosiac and prism. Figured if I pulled anything worth selling, may as well get them graded first.
@@joeshaver1104 It's never too late, they're such a joy. And that sounds like an awesome plan, and a great way to help the cards retain maximum collectability and value for many years to come.
Will PSA reject a card for being heavily damaged? I have a old Pokémon card I carried in my wallet for over 15 years and I want to see if they will grade it.
I have a base set blastoise in my wallet for years and never thought about getting it graded. It was in my pocket as a kid beforehand
@@zemsarutobi3874 that’s awesome! Mine was a Neo Genesis Pichu. I use a card holder now and the card doesn’t fit so I want to get it graded to preserve it.
@@IShredESPyou could get it graded, some people do it to preserve the cards they cherish. It will end up having a terrible grade and thereby probably not gaining as much market value as the submission costs you, so if you do, do it for yourself
Should be labeled legit and gave say a 6 because of the marker doesn't make any sense to reject it
How much for the blastoise
Appreciate the offer, but for now I have to keep it as it's part of a full set. But if I ever get a replacement one, I might part with it.
2:40 yw
Why is PSA shut down?
They're shut down for bulk orders because they received an overwhelming number of grading submissions during the 2020 lockdowns. They're still working through the backlog now (Feb 2022). Once they get through the backlog, they'll open up the bulk submissions again. It was many millions of cards they received.
What about vintage baseball cards that are clearly trimmed {as opposed to the intentionally deceptive very slight trimming}? Does PSA grade them as authentic/altered? What about writing in pencil on the front, and back damage {taken out of a scrapbook}? If anyone knows for sure, please advise.
I’ll buy the blastoise
Even rejected by PSA it's still pretty sweet right? I appreciate the offer, but I'm prepping it for submission to SGC for slabbing, as it's still part of the full set.
@@collectorsimpact check out RCG
Who wants me to open a STILL SEALED 1999 not for consumer sale boosterbox? This one: th-cam.com/users/shortsCom5GSqC2tE?feature=share
Should i open it at 100k subs?
I refuse to use PSA. I sent 2 cards to CGC in March and just got them back Friday. Sent a sub to SGC on July 1st and got them back on the 16th. I choose to not wait til the value of my card goes down to get them back.🤷
Yeah PSAs backlog was and is still is way out of hand. Definitely get where you're coming from.
I’m reluctant to send in my higher value cards in fear of them switching my 10 for a lesser quality card bait & switch. Can’t trust these guys.
tru
Sad..very sad. That a card ..that's rare and old and has a bad print from the factory getting a rejection. Usually error cards are worth more ^^ PSA should at least grade a bad printed card as Genuine.... Pfff
I would like to ask a question about a very special card I have .thanks 🙏
PSA is all bullshit.. I sent my Mario Lemieux RC card in back in Feb. it returned in may a psa 7.. the card it mint and i know it should at least be a 8-9.. so i cracked it and sent it back and i received it back saying NO holder altered.. I'm beyond pissed
That’s not a beta forest it’s a collector edition. The reverse should be gold with either international or collectors edition written on it.
Long winded video for 4 answers. Someone could made a short TH-cam video and covered all for answers.
Tip for making a video… GET TO THE POINT!!!!!
Let's talk about SHADY ~ PSA creating a label for a card they won't encase, and STILL then charge you...
