Why people would trust min wage, overworked GS employees with their pricey cards is beyond me. It's like asking your 15 year old nephew to parallel park your Lamborghini for you.
GS employees are NOT overworked JFC. They do not employ full time 90% of the time so they work around 20hrs a week and there is hardly any freight. Grocery store employees have WAY more to do and WAY more customers. Stop with the dramatics bc 3/4s of GS employees look like the Comic Book Shop guy from the Simpsons 😂
I get it but at the same time if you're a pro member price wise it makes a good bit of sense price wise. And don't they cover your card if it's "lost" or stolen or whatever? I thought the gamestop PSA thing was overall a pretty good deal?
As far as the missing $300K card/cards submission to GameStop goes I’d be willing to bet literally ANYTHING on the fact that it’s all BS. Anyone who has cards/a card of that value already knows about card grading, likely has already used a grading service or at bear minimum is aware of how to submit cards. weather it be PSA, SGC, BGS etc. There is no chance, NO CHANCE AT ALL ZERO POSSIBILITY that someone with a card or cards with a value of $300,000 or $200,000 or even $20,000 $30,000 is going to drop said cards off at GameStop it’s not realistic. This said card has the value potential higher value then the entire GameStop, inventory included. The story is fabricated we’ve seen no photos no receipts no validation whatsoever. It is not a true story. No way shape or form is this real. Does a man with $100,000 check go to the corner store bodega to cash it? Do you trade your $250,000 Bugatti into the used car lot down the road with five Toyota Corolla‘s in the parking lot. Does Elon Musk buy a cyber truck from a guy off Facebook marketplace? No none of that has EVER happened! And all of it sounds ridiculous as does someone submitting over a quarter of $1 million worth of cards to a game store like GameStop it’s just not reality you don’t build a collection or get your hands on a card of that value being a complete moron! You are not gonna convince me otherwise hopefully some of you can pull your heads out of your A55 and realize this!
On top of that the declared value of your cards and submitting through GameStop tops out at $200 for a bulk submission so again you’re telling me that a person with a $300,000 card is going to declare its value at $200 so that it can be submitted through GameStop so when things go wrong and insurance takes care of it he gets back a whopping $200 please convince me I’m wrong! ! Someone do me a favor and go to the PSA website and see what it cost to submit a card of that value. It is in the tens of thousands of dollars if I’m not mistaken to submit a card of that value. I may be mistaken on that but it damn sure is not $15.
Right! And then take a tour and spend extra to get it turned around super fast and get a hotel and take vacation go have fun in Santa Anna and wait and pick it by hand too lol.
@@osirisx2295 so question to both of you. ive been to my store and they confirmed that my cards were sent out. but every time i look at the submission details on gamestop it says no order found. my guess is im not gonna know shit till i get a call that they are back what yall think and have you had a similar experience?
I did the gamestop psa submission 20 cards. I got the $200 card Insurance even though two cards could be worth $500 when graded, but I took the risk. I kept an eye on the progress the bar never moved from being at the store. I was starting to worry. I figure id wait till the 45 day mark. then at day 26 I got an email from psa saying my cards were back, and 10 minutes later I got a call from gamestop. The progression tracker doesnt work which creates anxiety.
I was in a GameStop recently and they said they had people pay for the service but they hadn’t sent them off yet. I did not inquire why not as maybe I should have. But next time I go in I’m gonna ask why they wait. As money bear said above, it’s probably to get better rates for bulk.
I have two cards currently at GameStop. They have been there for over two months and I haven’t received an email that they were sent out to PSA, I’m stopping in tomorrow to see what’s going on.
I got my cards back and they went out within a couple of days I sent it in honestly might go through them again the girl working at GameStop knew exactly what she was doing and I appreciate her for that ❤
I’ve had many issues with game stop online orders and knew this was going to be a mess. Their warehousing and distribution does not seem very secure or competent to be handling grading cards
Agree with almost every point you made on grading. At this point I’ll only grade a card that I really enjoy and just want to get slabbed even if I know it will get low grade. I just don’t trust them, even PSA.
I absolutely hate the fact that you can not get in contact with real people when trying to contact bigger companies. Like, I feel Pokémon should have a place you can actually contact about problems, etc. Most bigger companies are all automated or digital, and that's stupid asf. Bring back actual people to contact to solve issues.. it would also combat a lot of scalping, etc, if people could call up pokemon and order a limited amount of boxes per household every release. Then leave the rest up to the stores and card shops. Once release day is over, you must hit up a store or shop to find that set if you want more
Honestly dude this feels just super slanderous. You’re talking to a random employee at a random store that’s quite literally speculating and portraying it as truth. This isn’t reporting this is just click bait. Maybe follow up on the initial accusation of the theft? It seems rational to put a hold on all subs in and out if you have a missing card issue… we all know this is a new system and with the way corporations work in general I’m not surprised they haven’t figured out a protocol for what to do when someone wants their ungraded cards back… itll all get fixed in the long run but most of these people complaining don’t seem to have even let the 45 business days run their course they’re just being impatient and you’re feeding into it. Your biased coverage of this when it’s otherwise been a great service to a huge amount of people is ridiculous. The truth is most people got their cards graded and returned to them in record time, but the headline of “GameStop makes grading a reality for thousands with minor hiccups” isn’t going to get you many clicks.
Nah I've now graded with gamestop 3 separate occasions almost 10 cards smooth everytime I just take 4k photos this has been a great experience for me.only things is I have to drive 20 mins to the location.
@@JuanRodriguez-kp4jd Right... what's to stop UPS or PSA to steal your cards? Unless you drive down to PSA and watch them grade your cards there is always a risk
I feel bro , I submitted my cards the 3rd and they are still just sitting there called the GameStop, employee was being very standoffish asked him when will the next batch of cards ship out cause I know it’s bulk shipping dude said 2 days ago but my cards are still there?? Like something ain’t adding up I’m bouta pull up on them 🤣
This exact same thing happened to us. We are still waiting for our cards to get shipped and it’s been almost a month. Can’t get our cards back, can’t get refunded, nothing.
Sent mine in, they've been "Shipped" for 21 days. Store says they can't help, corporate won't let me wait on hold, just says "we'll call you back" never receive a call. Not getting answers via Email either. Unfortunately, I feel like they've been taken. Unless someone says 21 days ship time is normal XD
I graded with GameStop and apparently they have a certain amount of days before ship. The process was smooth and transparent. I sent in October 28, got my submission back Dec 2nd. Could just be the location honestly.
Not a fan of graded collectibles. I could see where people might want to use it for authentication if they don't have the ability to tell the difference for themselves. However, I would never use a middleman like gamestop. My buddy owned a coun shop for years. He would always offer to send coins in for me. I never took him up on it, but I would trust him to do so if I was ever so inclined to do so, but I would never use a national chain with a plethora of unnamed and untrained employees.
I had heard they don't ship the cards in till they get to the number of the cards thats required for a bulk submission. This was on a TH-cam video I saw. Leanheart maybe?? Sorry I don't remember. That would make sense on what the delay is.
I knew this would be a problem. Especially here in California when thieves are able to walk in and steal without physical resistance allowed by companies. No security or anything. I ain’t leaving my valuables inside that fucking store.
This is one of my main concerns that's why I haven't graded any of my cards with them because I thought it sounded too good to be true when it came out and of course it is like everything these days
It’s honestly a great service but you’re only going to hear the negatives. I’ve had great experiences with their grading service, you should give it a go.
I wudnt be surprised if they came back 10s and now there selling them and looking to buy the original raw copy back... They probably had no idea how much money was in Pokemon cards ( or graded Pokemon cards) and once they saw that and said hu????
thanks for highlighting and exposing this. i was gonna use this service, since there's a GS two blocks from my place, but have held off. now, i know to avoid it at ALL costs. 👊
I'm already 400 cards deep with GameStop if it wasn't for them I wouldn't have so much graded cards now they'd be sitting I've had nothing but a positive experience matter fact I have a 64 card submission in progress right now. I honestly feel like making a video because all I see are people slamming GameStop. The employees are very good with your cards and seal them away in front of you I'd suggest taking pictures in case to be on the safe side but the amount of time and money this has saved me has been extremely helpful! Nobody wants to get off work and do more work researching a card writing the information down then value of the card and have to pay an additional $100 for service and people forget the amount in shipping cost and insurance lol 😂 that's already almost 18 slabs you could've got. Plus people say they'd rather take to a TCG shop to get their cards graded sounds outrageous 😂 they really have the ability to swap out your cards without you ever knowing. People just need something to complain about I always encourage people to try things out for yourself.
Because of some anecdotal evidence? You have just as good of a chance of the post office worker or delivery driver stealing your PSA addressed package as you do as getting ripped off by some random GS employee. Everything has risks.
Kinda shifty too, cause if Gamestop buys/sells, and they know they have a lot out for grading that's not on market, it could affect market prices on certain cards they own or market prices in general. Cards are more often more valuable when they have a lower pop count. So, holding ppls submissions is in their affecting these customers' ability to get the most for their cards if they want to sell. At least more so than if the customer had just sent their own cards in directly. Curious to watch how this plays out.
Said this weeks ago that the entire PSA grading is a total scam. I have watched countless videos and the cards that always come back as 9's and 10's are almost exclusively Pokemon only, and even will have very noticable corner damage or edge damage, among other scuffs and issues. While the Yugioh cards that go out almost always come back graded as 5's and 6's regardless of how mint their conditions are, and they'll even have MINT printed on the tags. I even watched youtubers bust out their PSA 9's and 10's to send in and they came back as 3's and 6's which is absurd and laughable. Someone submitted a PSA 7 card with tons of scuffs and dings, and a very noticeable crease and it was graded a PSA 7 "Factory Misprint". That alone should flat out tell you how much of a scam PSA is when they can't even distinguish misprints from damaged cards, or that their entire grading system is purely biased to support the buying/selling of Sports Cards and Pokemon Cards almost exclusively.
The new policy should be to ship the cards direct to customer once grades. GameStop can provide the shipping boxes and labels at the store and give instructions on how to ship to PSA. This removes store employees 100%

Why people would trust min wage, overworked GS employees with their pricey cards is beyond me. It's like asking your 15 year old nephew to parallel park your Lamborghini for you.
GS employees are NOT overworked JFC. They do not employ full time 90% of the time so they work around 20hrs a week and there is hardly any freight. Grocery store employees have WAY more to do and WAY more customers. Stop with the dramatics bc 3/4s of GS employees look like the Comic Book Shop guy from the Simpsons 😂

Right! And then take a tour and spend extra to get it turned around super fast and get a hotel and take vacation go have fun in Santa Anna and wait and pick it by hand too lol.

This is kind of what i'm hoping. Glad to see it's not just me, mine's been "Shipped" for 3 weeks. We're closing in on the 45 day mark total.
GameStop doesn’t ship each individual order. They wait for a minimal order batch which may be from different orders.
Right and any card store will do the same, becuase you need at least 20 cards to get the bulk PSA price.
They do it, SUPPOSEDLY, once a week (if less than 20) or once they get 20, whichever is first. Remember, I say SUPPOSEDLY.
Right so if this guy has his 9 sitting there and no one else can send any currently hes just screwed for now I guess.
@@11Manidontcare what do you consider screwed? If they send it in but just not to the customers expected timeframe, does that means he was screwed?
