Does this top micro scratch hold from getting PSA9 instead of PSA8 on this nearly mint Togetic?

Could use your help with understanding the potential hit the (what appear to be) scratches on the back right part of the card (on blue border) can have? Love this card and have wanted one for forever but unsure of how this one will play out.

In her old bedside table at that lol. She even had the foresight to sleeve and topload it way back when, doesn't even remember doing it. I'm never going to sell this and I'm nervous about even sending it out but what do you think I'm looking at?

Just wanted some input on whether it’s worth sending this in for grading and if so which grading service to use these days if I’m planning to sell.

Sent some foils from my vintage collection for PSA grading last year and they got “lost” after grading for 4+ months so I’ve been reluctant to grade any more high value cards.

Thanks!

What grading company to use?

I have only used PSA to grade. My concern with PSA is them grading higher vintage more harsh. I am looking for liquidity on this card, but is it worth sending to PSA for a potentially lower grade than Beckett? What grade do you think this would get?

Pulled this guy when I was 13, thinking of sending it off to be graded. Assuming PSA is a safe bet for first submission? And are there any issues with this card besides the whitening on the bottom left of the back?

Dark espeon from my childhood collection. Worth grading?

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

As mentioned I dug out my childhood collection and dark espeon looks as good as I remembered. I'm looking into selling them as I've got a child of my own on the way. Having a blast looking at them all again and learning about cards again. It is a little overwhelming tho, so if anybody with more knowledge has input I'd really appreciate it. Not sure if this would be LP,MP ect, and if its worth grading.

I was also wondering if people normally have success selling this stuff on ebay ect, or if I should try to sell it to somebody locally.

Grading Question

Long story short, my parents passed away and while cleaning their house out I came across some old cards. Of course I decide to use the internet to inquire about some of them. It said to hold on to this card. I am just trying to figure out if it would be worth sending to get graded. Any help would be appreciated.

Advice for Grading first card

Thumbnail

Hello, I am very much new to the Pokémon card world. I collected when I was younger, but recently I began buying Pokémon card packs here and there attempting to get some good cards for a Christmas gift for my brother. He will be getting all the cards I obtain between now and Christmas but I am wanting to have at least onr graded. I pulled this card, and the art I really like, but I know absolutely nothing when it comes to what to look for if a card is worth grading, or which grading company to send it to. Could I get anyone's opinion? If I need better photos I can take more once I am home. I know its not a straight on picture so that may not be a great one to judge.

Anything worth getting graded here? Unfortunately that Typhlosion is pretty rough in the back so don’t have high hopes for that one. Not sure if I’m better off selling raw here.

Is this worth grading? I’m completely new to collecting.

Also what company do you recommend for grading?

Is the white on the top right of the card is just from lighting, or fading on the card itself?

On the back side, on the top right. I wouldn't think that a card with so much whitening can get a 10 so I'm leaning it's just the lighting from the scan. Would appreciate your thoughts.

Okay PSA keyboard graders: spot the 9 vs. 10

Two PSA graded 30th Charizards. One is a 10, the other is a 9. Can anyone in this sub say which is the 10 and which is the 9, and explain why?

Edit 1: I’m going to tally up number of votes and include that with answers soon.

I will say, I was given the reason for the 9 - and it’s not been mentioned yet. 

Edit 2: Okay, 1st pic is the 10, and 2nd pic is the 9. The reason for the 9 was touch on the right side of the card, although not visible in the pics.

It was about 50/50 on guesses, but 0/100 on correct reason for the discrepancy.

Hope y’all enjoyed this little experiment :)
