That was me at 9:40. Thanks so much for being honest and not trying to rip me off as I am new to this all 😂 I sent it to ACE and it came back as a 10! Your an honest bloke mate and I appreciate that. All the best 👍🏻
Hey Randy, that was me at 22:28 buying the charizard and getting the mewtwo signed 😅 thanks for that means a bunch and recently sent a few more cards off for grading at ace
It must be mad selling cards and someone comes up to you using your own grading system without probably realising who he is. Randolph has changed the UK game, respect brother.
From what I've seen, slab cards in the UK look more vibrant and appealing compared to those in the US, which are mostly dominated by PSA slabs. People in the UK also seem to care more about their cards, often using clear, high-quality top loaders to protect them. It’s great to see this level of attention to detail!
Loved how when the first kids came over to the stall, Randy spoke to them directly, shook her hand etc. and involved the kids rather than just talking directly to the dad. Small detail but a nice act.
@@bman12233 sure but they need competition to maintain standards. Ace is exactly what the space needs. Adding something to the product and giving PSA a reason to be better. Plus, PSA only has a reputation because of the time of their existence. Ace has to build that and it can only come with time.
Randy lad, you're looking well, and its amazing to see you thriving after all the crap thrown your way. You have got me back into Pokemon, and restored a childhood love of mine. Cant wait to bring some cards to Ace and pop into your shop when its finally open! Love
Don’t think I’ve ever opened a pack of Pokémon cards, had very little hours play in the gameboy games but watching you and Coop do this stuff is so warming. Keep it up brother
He wants to build the popularity of Ace Grading. That's why he took some of his best cards to the America show. He's planning on opening grading centres in America
If i start into serious card collection what is the best way? Is it buying packs or singles online or markets? How do I go about getting serious collection mate?
What do you use to price raw singles for the UK market? I always struggle finding a reliable source for raw European and UK sales, and Cardmarket sucks because it has people just price dumping on questionable condition cards.
I would imagine he uses a lot of the American market because he sells a lot there and with doing 70 percent it doesn’t matter if he slightly overpays, just speculating
Hope you don’t mind my question but how do you pay 80% on slabs? What about tax / overheads If your paying 75% or 80% of value that would turn into a loss
You were born for this brother! Thanks for putting content out still in this busy time. Hope everything is going ok. I wish we could find the bastards!
I missed your videos I’m glad your back many blessing to you and your business I know hard time happen but good thing always come when you walk the long trails ❤️❤️🤞
Where can I keep up to date with Pokemon TCG events because I am from Essex and had no idea this was on, and would have been there if I did know, so feel rather dissapointed I didnt get to go.
TBH i don't understand this game but if there is something i'm sobbing about on these videos i like to see people trading cards specially randolph that's make me i wanna fly to the UK just to buy from him or trade with him ily man and your videos
so the guy saying he got it straight from smyths, I want to get into this but I am totally new, what are the good packs from smyths with potential valuable ones in?
I'm looking for best place to buy graded cards for my nephew for his birthday and never done this before any recommendations where I'm not gonna get ripped off or buy fakes
@DaveDanger-i1f I just said I love the custom art on the slabs… I’m not talking about if it’s better than PSA. I collect the slabs because I like the cards and want to preserve them. PSA isn’t better but it’s more common in America so they sell better. I order my Slabs at Global Grading because I like their slabs and they’re located in the Netherlands. Ace is also interesting for us because they’re located in the UK. I buy the PSA slabs because they’re sold more.
A friend of mine was ill so didn’t go to this event in the end, gutted to find out you were there. Sad to hear the news re ACE but keep it up Randy! Maybe see you at another event.

Hey that's awesome man!
Holy shit congrats man!
Congrats on the 10, that's amazing!
ACE 10 isn’t psa 10 but congrats

I came here to say this…
Its great to see randy bounce back from the recent issue. Keep up the positivity
True.
Im not sure when this was filmed, could be prior to the 'event'
This was filmed prior to what happened
Whats happend????

These vendor POVs are the best videos in my opinion, please never stop making these

Ace slabs look good. PSA is only king because of market share. The worst reason to be king.
Surely being well respected and known as a grading company is better than "slabs look nice"

God bless you
Was good meeting you here mate, top guy and comes across in real life as the same on camera! Thanks for the chat and photo mate❤
Nice to see a vendor checking solds and actually going under them
would be pretty cool if for ace grading you guys gave an "ace" grade for the proper pristince cards kinda like a bgs black 10
The Ace labels have really improved - that Umbreon with the blue moon is crazy
*come to Norfolk card show I beg*
I appreciate the usd conversions on the screen. I know about what pounds are in usd but it’s nice to know exact
Sold you a greninja, and submitted stellar crown squirtle that day and got a 10 back!! Keep up the work mate ACE are the best on market!!
ayyy i featured in the video at 17:00! thanks for the sale bro
Absolutely love these videos! Feel like I learn so much more about this side of the hobby!
The Brentwood Centre? Corr. Grew up round the corner. Never knew there was a card game event there.
Hope to see more vendor POVs in the future, excited to see you get back on your feet! Great content as always
Love seeing Randy back vending. A legend and inspiration to the Pokémon community
Randy I’m loving this and it’s so awesome that how genuine you are to everyone!
The little kid at the end, while your doing your outro 😂 looked like he realized who you were and got excited to tell his mom ❤️
This was a really good video mate, loved the POV and insight into how you worked it, keep going man.
i hope these type of videos keep happening, keep up the good work Randolph! 👏🏻
There aren't fees on eBay any more either...
It's great to see eventually all you will find in the UK is ace graded cards
Don’t think I’ve ever opened a pack of Pokémon cards, had very little hours play in the gameboy games but watching you and Coop do this stuff is so warming. Keep it up brother
Why are you not buying psa cards ??
I understand you own Ace Grading but not buying PSA cards doesn't make any sense to be honest . :-S
He wants to build the popularity of Ace Grading. That's why he took some of his best cards to the America show. He's planning on opening grading centres in America
What ? PSA is surely better
If i start into serious card collection what is the best way? Is it buying packs or singles online or markets? How do I go about getting serious collection mate?
Great seeing Randy in his element here after recent set backs. Head up my guy!
Much love Randy, glad to see you back ❤
Oh what the fuck. I was at this show and had no idea you were there! Would have definitely come and said hi had I known.
Loving to see the comeback Randolph! I’d love to meet you at an even like this if you’re ever around the uk more
Amazing to see you back at it brother 🙏🏼
Any chance your going to the Australian collecter event in Melbourne on the 6th July this year?
What app is the best to use for evaluating card prices?
I feel the only place ace slabs are taken with any sort of seriousness is in the UK. Over here you'd just get raw prices for them
don’t stop posting chill videos like this randy!
Welcome back Randy can’t wait for more content
WOW Randy, LOOK AT YOU MAN. You have slimmed down even more😮. Congrats man. Mustve been a journey
Great to see you back out there Randy. Great editing on this video. Would love to meet you at a Card Show. My goal is to make it to one this year!
Where is this market?
What do you use to price raw singles for the UK market? I always struggle finding a reliable source for raw European and UK sales, and Cardmarket sucks because it has people just price dumping on questionable condition cards.
I would imagine he uses a lot of the American market because he sells a lot there and with doing 70 percent it doesn’t matter if he slightly overpays, just speculating
Ebay & Pricecharting
Hope you don’t mind my question but how do you pay 80% on slabs? What about tax / overheads
If your paying 75% or 80% of value that would turn into a loss
Tax is on profit, not revenue per say. So you pay tax on the sale price minus cost of goods sold :)
None of these geezers pay tax lmao
? 😂 obviously we do
Hey, why you don't buy in PSA?
You were born for this brother!
Thanks for putting content out still in this busy time. Hope everything is going ok. I wish we could find the bastards!
Randys such a genuine guy yano. W Randolph Fuck With You Heavy Bro!
Excuse my language
Where is the best place in the UK to get cards graded?
6:45 did he just pocket something
What app does Randy use to figure out how much everything is worth for like graded cards?
yooo randy those ace backgrounds on the cards are so cool hope to see your company continue to grow
I missed your videos I’m glad your back many blessing to you and your business I know hard time happen but good thing always come when you walk the long trails ❤️❤️🤞

What's wrong with PSA? Why don't you buy them?
Hes one of the owners of ace grading he wont buy them because hes basically the face of ace so he deals with ace only
He owns Ace Grading and is trying to build its popularity. He wants to expand and open grading centres in America
Nothing PSA is king.
TBH i don't understand this game but if there is something i'm sobbing about on these videos i like to see people trading cards specially randolph that's make me i wanna fly to the UK just to buy from him or trade with him ily man and your videos
The Pikachu SIR I pulled had the same spot on the corner. I hope it comes in a 10 🫣 11:02
The guy commented and it came back as a 10!!
@@mols3206that’s great news! I wonder where he graded? I had to send mine to PSA 😢 it’s closer to me
When you sign slabs for people does it increase/decrease value at all? Just curious, love the videos Randy
so the guy saying he got it straight from smyths, I want to get into this but I am totally new, what are the good packs from smyths with potential valuable ones in?
Why are the prices on Pokemon cards so expensive in the UK?
Where is the best place to see market value
Glad to see you happy again my guy

Come on Randy more content, what you and ace have done is awesome to rebound, ace is kind
Did Randy say "I have a Pen" and then give it to the dad?
where do u find the market for ace graded cards?
No idea it doesn't make sense
Of you ever come to the Netherlands for a show, let us know! I would love to own some custom slabs
What app do you use to check the prices/values?
Hi Randolph what do you use to price your cards, is there anything in the UK to use for pricing that isnt ebay ? thank you :)
I really want that riolu and charizard from the start in an ACE 10, beautiful 😍
Yesss, Randy vids are back! Good to see you bounce back, keep up the amazing work man! ✌
why dont you buy psa?
How do you look up and calculate prices that quickly?
When Randy uploads a vendor pov it’s a good day 🔥
New around here… why don’t Randy buy psa?
The more I see videos like this makes me so glad I care nothing for grded stuff...such inflated prices. Well each to their own.
i can’t wait for your pokémon shop . u best be doing card shop vlogs , or even league videos
Do you ever sell raw cards at shows?
Will you be coming to Liverpool for the northwest card show?
I really love the custom slab art on the Ace slabs!
Why ? This doesn't make any sense

Hi Randy my cards have been with ace for over 6 weeks but I haven't received any updates on the status of grading my cards, please can you help 🙏
Was awesome to meet you at the event, will you be bringing any Arsenal autos to the London Card Show ?
Why not buying psa?
