Great video, some fantastic cards! From what I’ve seen the ace 10 is really hard like CGC, which is good to know the 10 means gem mint but painful to see so many 9’s on those mint cards…looking forward to seeing the ace flip video, really interesting to see how that goes. I think I’ll wait just a little longer to grade with ace once all the flaws are ironed out
great video i think the slabs look great but i agree with you on the colors on the label not so much but it must be nice to have your Zards back and in a case
Nice been waiting to see this return!! Nice cards 🔥🔥 after watching this through fully, seems like they grade kinda harsh, was shocked by a couple of those. Not sure if I like the logo at the bottom of the slabs either, makes the slabs look chipped almost 🤔. I do like the rest of the look though
Sent 1 card off to ace, not for value but just because I really want it I a slab! Lol worth the price just for that. Love your Charizards man!! Can't believe how harsh some of the grades were
@@vivianscollectibles that would be kool if it does to know where they took off points but as far as the slabs going the seem to have good value on ebay
great vid mate. i am not a fan of those labels myself. they either arent "clean" or look like they were made in powerpoint if that makes sense. and the contrast between the font and the rainbowy backgrounds makes them kinda hard to read. you have to glance at it too many times. psa ones are kinda bland too tho in my book. honestly the grading community is ripe for a different company to do something unique and emerge above the others. thanks for showing these off though keep it up!
Regardless of the grades and my thoughts on Ace, theres some beautiful cards in that return mate... and if they're not for resale then at least they're well protected now and some of the Ace labels look cool. However, with Ace's tragically harsh grading, colour match labels that don't match colours, slabs that are full of air bubbles/chips/cracks in the plastic, refusal to publicly address any of their shortcomings and criticisms, generally non existent customer service department, nevermind their ludicrously limited capacity, I'd honestly rather just wait until the year 2050 for PSA and Beckett to reopen standard submission levels. I know they are a new company but they keep going on about things taking longer so "it's done right/properly" yet things aren't being done right/properly. Regarding the harshness of their grading, it's almost as if they rate their own 10s as highly as Beckett rate their Pristine 10s and Black labels... which is frankly absurd. These criticisms are all coming from someone who was genuinely excited when Ace was first announced and had real plans to use them for large submissions in future... Honestly just disappointed more than anything.
Ace is cool for sure. Some of their slab designs are a bit lackluster but some are fire. What do you think about it Viv? Will you send another submission to them?
It might sound mean, but I'd break the cases and send the cards to PSA. You'd have an easier time getting those 10's. I guess if you have multiples that are in "gradable" condition, that's always a nice back up but imo those grades are kind of harsh.
Agree, colour match is hit n miss, often miss. The birds ace label is not good, too much going on and hard to read the text. I reckon it'll be surface of the hidden fates that brings the grade down.
It feels like they don't want to give you 10's for the sake of it even if they are 10 worthy just so they can make their 10's seem more elusive.. just my take. Something doesn't feel right about them and comes across unprofessional so i'm going to avoid using them personally, and the slab quality is quite disappointing considering how much they bigged them up lol
Ace is cool but it doesn’t seem special or unique enough to be worth the downsides. Seems too harsh, bad quality control, and just overall a lot of things that need to be smoothed out. You rly got an 8 on the jirachi feelsbadman
something theyll open up in the future they mentioned but since new company uk for now otherwise they will get too many orders then have a backlog like psa. So give it time im sure will be able to grade with them
PSA ist a hopeless Grading company, Take your PSA10 cards too BGS, AP, or CGC and u well not get a 10,mabey 9,5 then u really lucky.. Much better grading company,s U just scamm u self, Sending your cards too PSA.
Dunno, the company seems sloppy. Wouldn’t recommend you continuing with that company lol. The attention to detail doesn’t seem present. The glue, the color choice, the bubbles, the crimps on the paper… would make my “OCD” go crazy lol
How did that last zard get a 10 lol. There were some 9s that had better centering imo.

The stuff on the bottom of the slap is from melting the 1st edition on to it after they don't with that u won't see the bottom looking bad
Been waiting for this one! 🤟🏻
I am thinking to grade my not sure which cards to send yet
great video i think the slabs look great but i agree with you on the colors on the label not so much but it must be nice to have your Zards back and in a case
Yeah boy. Nice cards. Look forward to part 2

The logo at the bottom is their first month start up Speical slabs, logo won't be on the later submissions 😊
@@freshkarp Oh interesting I didn't know that. Kind of a cool exclusive thing then I guess
My opinion on the labels are spot on with yours. Just a lil tweaking to a few things and they'd be great!
Not a fan of grading myself, but certainly was interesting to see what the company graded you for the cards.
Great returns!! I am loving the ace slabs tbh they look great 🔥🔥
Sent 1 card off to ace, not for value but just because I really want it I a slab! Lol worth the price just for that. Love your Charizards man!! Can't believe how harsh some of the grades were
What’s the cheapest grading service that has a higher resell value like psa and Beckett
best to do your research as hard to advise as depends the cards u sending, if you sending junk or cheap cards then you probs no making anything.
I'd send some cards to Ace in the future to try it out. Once they open up to international
how can you get psa from the uk? nowhere is doing them or are you just waiting and hoping for the future?
future, price too high atm for express
ACE label presentation is really nice and different. Are they also in the USA?
uk only but they opening worldwide down the line
Ace are the tesco value version of PSA
I like the first label. Looks realy sick.
Do they not break down how ur card was grading digitally?
not sure
@@vivianscollectibles that would be kool if it does to know where they took off points but as far as the slabs going the seem to have good value on ebay
How much is there bulk submissions going for?
£10 a card to sub bulk
ive seen one guy get 60 cards graded from AG and all the slabs were cracked and flash on them. Love the AI grading concept.
great vid mate. i am not a fan of those labels myself. they either arent "clean" or look like they were made in powerpoint if that makes sense. and the contrast between the font and the rainbowy backgrounds makes them kinda hard to read. you have to glance at it too many times. psa ones are kinda bland too tho in my book. honestly the grading community is ripe for a different company to do something unique and emerge above the others. thanks for showing these off though keep it up!
out of curiosity may i ask if the slab is made of plastic or glass?
Plastic
Ok thanks
New Video, nice!
Really beautiful cards
The cards in this submission were some of the best imo. But those grades were too harsh 😕 Amazing cards nonetheless 💯
They seem a bit too harsh but I guess that’s good for value

Does it really come in a box with a massive Ace Grading logo on it so that people know what to steal?
That’s inner box, outside box is plain
Ace is cool for sure. Some of their slab designs are a bit lackluster but some are fire. What do you think about it Viv? Will you send another submission to them?
submitted some more stuff, sent some celebrations and few other bits plus bits to sell. See how they do
Nice vid! I got a sealed CP etb if you want to do a opening
ive opened enough of those and got loads sealed
Viv has 10 of each Charizard meanwhile I have none 😭😭
Get those japanese cards graded by PSA. I do not believe why they are graded 8-9😅
Nice!
It might sound mean, but I'd break the cases and send the cards to PSA. You'd have an easier time getting those 10's. I guess if you have multiples that are in "gradable" condition, that's always a nice back up but imo those grades are kind of harsh.
Not gunna lie the bottom of the cases look horrendous , surely they shouldnt be sending cards back like that? Labels look good though
Agree, colour match is hit n miss, often miss. The birds ace label is not good, too much going on and hard to read the text. I reckon it'll be surface of the hidden fates that brings the grade down.
Labels should be plain to not take away from the card imho
Fourth! Nice Video! 👍
It feels like they don't want to give you 10's for the sake of it even if they are 10 worthy just so they can make their 10's seem more elusive.. just my take. Something doesn't feel right about them and comes across unprofessional so i'm going to avoid using them personally, and the slab quality is quite disappointing considering how much they bigged them up lol
That hidden fates shiny charizard gx is far more off center then half the cards you sent off that got 9s lmao ace company is low key a joke
Ace is cool but it doesn’t seem special or unique enough to be worth the downsides. Seems too harsh, bad quality control, and just overall a lot of things that need to be smoothed out. You rly got an 8 on the jirachi feelsbadman
First and cool!!!
🔥🔥🔥
dope!
The Japanese cards are printed better than English ones. You should have get 10s
bruh the color match with the rainbow zard looks bad. I can do a lot better trust 😂
They don’t even offer grading for US customers so yeah F them. I’ll stick with PSA and SGC.
something theyll open up in the future they mentioned but since new company uk for now otherwise they will get too many orders then have a backlog like psa. So give it time im sure will be able to grade with them
Really nice cards but not a fan of the labels. Just my opinion of course. The slabs look cheap and the colored labels look horrible
Amateur grading. It's still too subjective.
their label is beautiful.. but the quality looks like it was printed on cheap plastic..
Take a look at AP Grading
Not been a fan
PSA ist a hopeless Grading company, Take your PSA10 cards too BGS, AP, or CGC and u well not get a 10,mabey 9,5 then u really lucky.. Much better grading company,s U just scamm u self, Sending your cards too PSA.
alright mr expert
THEN I Got AP, CGC 8,5 /8 send it into the PSA, and get 10 maney times, I am a expert No No ,I am just lucky, All love PSA , ist good.
Dunno, the company seems sloppy. Wouldn’t recommend you continuing with that company lol. The attention to detail doesn’t seem present. The glue, the color choice, the bubbles, the crimps on the paper… would make my “OCD” go crazy lol
