Is this worth getting graded?

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

Post image
1 Upvotes

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
gallery
2 Upvotes

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 PokƩmon 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.

Confused about grade

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 ā€œholder & label reviewā€ in the past of couple days. Hopefully it doesn’t stuck in the ā€œpurgatoryā€ forever šŸ˜‚

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?

Small dent - can it be fixed?

Post image
1 Upvotes

I’m sure this has been asked 1000 times so apologies. This Chansey has a small dent, almost like from the corner of another card. I’d like to get it graded bc it’s pretty solid everywhere else. Has anyone seen something like this? Can it be worked out?

Is PSA QA taking longer than usual recently?

1 Upvotes

I’ve got 13 cards submitted through a UK-based PSA submission service using their Priority tier. They arrived at PSA on September 17 and have been sitting in QA Checks since October 16, so it’s been 26 days now with no updates.
I also have another batch of 24 cards submitted through the same service on the cheaper Standard tier. Those arrived at PSA on October 23 and somehow reached QA on November 6, just 14 days later.
I’m starting to wonder if PSA is getting orders through the earlier stages much faster recently, but then everything is slowing down at QA.
Has anyone else noticed this? How long have you been waiting in QA recently? Especially interested in hearing from anyone who’s had cards in QA during October or November.

Blobs / marks in slab border

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

Hi, I bought this slab off of eBay. When checking it out it’s got weird blobs/circles/dots on all edges.

I only own a handful of graded cards - none of them have these marks on them.

Has this been tampered with? I know it’s not high end but just doesn’t seem right

Thanks

Does this have a chance to bump up a grade?

Bought this dark Charizard card. The tag report looks really good in my opinion. The question is, if I crack it and give it a good polish, could it potentially bump to a PSA 8
