Nice cards, nice reveal. Thank you for sharing. I have better luck on grading MJ. I would never advise submitting alongside 2023 cards. The grader will have comparative bias. If you send only 90’s cards, a few more will gem when grading amongst those cards, but against ultra modern cards they have no chance. My subtle tip from my experience. Keep up the good work
I think one of the Beckett executives just got convicted of fraud. There are interviews with a former Beckett grader on TH-cam who said they spend like 30-90 seconds per card. It's a crapshoot just like PSA. They take a quick glance and slap on a grade, and try to give a variety of grades on each order regardless of the cards you submit, just like PSA.
The grading company that seems least like a scam is SGC. PSA has had major scandals that have barely made the light of day because people love gambling with PSA. It's all about the gamble. I think most people know it's a scam now and send cards anyway. If you send 20 perfect cards, they're going to send you a variety of 10s and 9s and probably an 8 or two on some heavily submitted cards. If you broke all the 9s and resubmitted them, you'd get a variety of 10s and 9s and probably an 8 or two. If you broke all the 10s and resubmitted, you'd get a variety of 10s and 9s and probably an 8 or two. There is no science behind it. They spend minimal amount of time on each card and slap on more or less random grades (within reason). In 90% of cases whether a given card receives a 9 or a 10 is completely dependent on the rest of your order and luck. It's pure stupidity.
I swear it feels like PSA is curbing pop count increase, now that everybody and their mama are pulling junk wax out of the closest and just sending in sub grade MJ cards. Makes me hesitant on sending any in right now with the state of the market.
Dayyyummm! Nice Video! How much that all cost to grade and what was the turn around??

Hey, this is😊 great advice. I appreciate that. I will definitely do this differently from now on.
OMG all those cards are 10's except for the ones that got mangled by PSA. Wow!
Send some Jordans you think are 10’s to TAG. That way you see EXACTLY why your card received the grade
PSA is shooting itself in the foot! I’ve been going to Becket for all my gradings !

Yeah they dented my jersey numbered De'Aaron Fox auto rookie. Couldn't believe it.
Awesome PSA grading reveal. Sports cards have been one of my passions since I was 8 years old.

Every card seems to get 10's...But Jordan... PSA doesn't like to grade Jordan's equally

I saw you put at least 1 9 in your 8 pile
Why do people gravitate to PSA? I've never understood it. PSA has the ugliest slabs and they've been involved in a lot of shady practices in the past
How can anyone get so many 8s when sending in this many cards? its a mystery
PSA doing that well known thing of shooting itself in the foot
Wow you paid up for all those retail blue Wemby...yikes
PSA has been brutal the past month. My previous 20 submissions I averaged 85 gem rate (ultra-modern) but the past 3 25%!!! I think they are using AI.
Ugh!!
