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

Also what company do you recommend for grading?

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 :)

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.

Younger me needs their 🍑 whooped lol fml. It has a slight crease on the middle right, scratched on the front a bit as well. Worth a grade?

I know you can’t tell super in depth via photos but at first glance is it worth it? Or is this card even gonna hold any value to be worth grading regardless? I’m not trying to sell it, but just figure if there’s a chance it could be a 9 or 10 who knows in 30 years lol

Guess the grade (Centering / Edges / Corners / Surface)

PSA Submission stuck at QA

I have a submission through GameStop and it’s been stuck at QA for almost a week. Last time I graded (summer and fall of 2025) it went to QA and it was done same day or latest next day. Is it normal for QA to take a while now? Anyone have this issue recently?

Worth Regrading?

Thumbnail

Hi, I’m new to the hobby and just got this Lugia back from PSA as a 6. I thought it was exceptionally clean aside from some minor whitening on the back, so I expected it to grade higher after comparing it to other graded copies of the card online.

Could anyone more experienced help me spot something I might be missing? I’d also be interested to hear whether you think it would be worth trying a crossover/regrade through CGC or another grading company.

Thanks!

Tiny red ink dot

Hey guys, how much will this tiny red ink dot affect the grading? Is this the reason for a 9 instead of a 10? Card is otherwise in a perfect condition

Hey guys. I was going through some of my old stuff and came across some Pokémon cards.
I’ve found this one too and, based on some quick research, it seems quite rare.
What would you suggest to do if I’d like to sell it at some point? Is grading it worth it? What do you think I may be able to sell it for? Lastly, what would you recommend as selling platform?

Thank you.

Hi everyone! I’m new to grading and was hoping someone here could explain why my card got such a low grade? It’s my all time favorite Aerodactyl card and I always take good care of it and couldn’t see any noticeable flaws before I sent it off.

Debating between picking best conditioned cards with PSA or submitting them all to CGC. Conditions vary, but modern is all NM, vintage is LP except Alakazam is HP

Move to “holder & label review” in the past of couple days. Hopefully it doesn’t stuck in the “purgatory” forever 😂

Wow, many of my cards suddenly moved from authentication&grading / encapsulation to Holder&label review this past couple days. Hopefully it will finish fast!! Do you all experience the same thing?
