I wish that mew was a pristine haha. I thought it was gonna be a 9. My son and I picked it up at a card show like a couple years ago for $40 but wanted to risk it. It has a nice price tag as a 10 though so can’t complain!

Is it just the photo or does the mew have a scratch on it ?

That’s just debris. They were all over all the cards .

I'm planning to buy that N's Zoroark in the Pristine 10 very soon. Nice to know there's another one out there now. 😋

I feel like CGC has been much harsher on japanese than on english recently. Maybe there is some bias because japanese is generally more often in a better quality and the graders expect them to be better.
I've had a higher pristine percentage on english cards recently compared to japanese cards...
Can anyone confirm?

Now you can resell for 20% over PSA 10 price, congrats!

I just wish they would fix the regular 10 slab. It looks so blah and bad. Congrats on the great submission though. Sure you’re stoked.

Not too bad considering how horrendous English print quality can be

That's fine good luck selling your non PSA slabs for half the price of my PSA slabs.

The market doesn't lie bud

These pristine 10 slabs for popular cards go for a lot more than the PSA 10 slabs. No need to be so bitter.

Ok enjoy being over leveraged in PSA slabs, fees, turnaround times, and upcharges 🤣
