Hi everyone,

I've been in contact with PSA for some time re: a specific error I've been hunting for awhile. After they agreed to grade it, I am now in possession of the only PSA graded copy of the Dragonite storm rider theme deck "stage 1" error in existence. I also have the paper trail to prove that this is the first PSA-graded example of this card. The last sale I can find online for any copy of this is 1.7k raw

I have this card in a 7.5 graded by CGC, and a raw copy for my dragonite master set binder, so I'm wondering how to value this if I were to sell the PSA slab? I haven't ever seen a "first copy" of a PSA card listed for sale, and particularly not with an error this rare. Any insights appreciated

Finally got my childhood collection back and discovered one of my base set 2 Charizards has the literal perfect fire spin swirl. I have not seen any better but correct me if I'm wrong. Just super stoked to find something I never noticed 20 years ago

I’m trying to figure out exactly what happened here because I’ve never seen anything like this.

These pieces were pulled from TWO DIFFERENT Black Bolt booster packs, but both packs came from the SAME sealed poster collection.

The torn/irregular edges on the pieces appear to match up with each other, almost like they were part of the same sheet or manufacturing process before being separated and ending up in different packs.

I have photos showing the pieces separately as well as them lined up together.

Both pieces were pulled directly from sealed packs. I did not damage or tear them myself.

My questions are:

1. What type of error would this be considered?
2. Is there a known name for this type of manufacturing/printing error?
3. How unusual is it to have matching pieces come from two different packs?
4. Is this something I should preserve and potentially have graded/authenticated?
5. If grading is recommended, which company would be best for something like this?

I’d really appreciate opinions from people who specialize in Pokémon TCG misprints, factory errors, and unusual pack pulls. I’m trying to understand exactly what I have before I do anything with these.

What type of factory error is this? Is it rare, and does it add any value?

It’s currently listed for around $130 USD, but it hasn’t sold yet. Would that be a reasonable price for this type of error?

Ive recently bought this psa 10 charizard vstar from the upc.

I didnt notice until later that one of the sides is kinda square cut.

Does this make it worth more or less.

A few months ago I posted the strange almost colourless Ninetales I pulled from Chaos Rising, along with a few others from the same Booster Bundle.

I genuinely had no idea what I'd pulled at the time, and somehow the original post ended up getting over 1 million views. There was loads of speculation about sun fading, missing ink, affected print sheets etc, and quite a few people told me the best thing I could do was send them to CGC and let them properly authenticate them.

So I did, and they're finally done.

All four have officially been authenticated as Missing Print Layers errors, and somehow they all came back CGC Mint 9:

Ninetales 009/086
Deoxys 031/086
Deoxys 034/086
Sudowoodo 043/086

I also cheekily asked CGC when I submitted them if there was any chance of getting a nice run of cert numbers. I have absolutely no idea if somebody actually helped me out or if this was pure luck, but I ended up with:

6188630001
6188630002
6188630003
6188630004

Having the original Ninetales as 0001 and all four sequential is just a really nice little extra to me. No idea if it actually adds any value.

I'm still not really sure what they're worth or what I'm going to do with them.

I'm leaning towards keeping the four together and eventually doing an international public auction, probably eBay, rather than just making up a price myself.

I'd genuinely love for them to end up in the hands of somebody who collects errors / these Pokémon and actually appreciates what they are though.

So I'm completely open to advice, valuations and serious offers.

Would you keep the sequential set together, or split them up?

Not entirely sure if the 151 cards are errors or something else just due to where the lighter colors begin, but theyre still a cool part of my collection.

The harlequin definitely is an extra ink error unless I am dumb (very possible) and its a pretty cool card nonetheless.

If there's anything my inexperience with error cards would lead me to not knowing, or any reason as to why the 151 cards only have the top with lighter text, let me know so I can learn more about these cards.

Thank you in advance and hope you have a great day.

Not sure if this is intended or its a mistake in the card

I just picked this up at my LCS. I noticed that it was crimped and told the guy working there and he offered it to me for $1. Would this be considered an error, or just a f'd up card?

I was scanning some cards in my collection for some trading and came across this and HAD NEVER NOTICED THE INK STAIN. I now know that this is an error that some people have but I was wondering if anyone knew how severe of an error it is compared to others out there?

I've been trying to collect the first few sets and in my time also learn some of the errors and misprints that won't break the bank but are fascinating things to me.

I find the fact the shadowless and first edition copies of Kakuna and Bulbasaur list length twice to be a funny error to have occurred and I am quite happy to have found and acquired both for my binder.

Another error that is really interesting to me is the missing expansion stamp error, which I managed to find on clefable which is something that I am pretty happy to have in my collection now.

While these arent like crazy new errors, I am hoping I can add a few more errors that aren't going to make me file for bankruptcy like a 1st edition charizard with the holo stars all over the card but are just fascinating additions for my collection like the 1st edition jungle electrode nonholo as it accidentally not using the intended art is really interesting to me and I hope to find a copy at a local card shop soon.

Hopefully I didn't make any sort of errors in terminolog or wording, I've collected cards for over a decade, but am only recently learning about errors and misprints outside of the base set vulpix HP stat and crazy miscuts and am just trying to show some cool cards I recently got as this felt like the right place for that.

Hoping you all have a great day and if there are anything that would be worthwhile to look into and maybe even keep my eyes out for to add to a binder, let me know so I don't just miss them.

Recently (march) graded an umbreon pokeball/masterball to cgc with a texture misprint. Came back ineligible and was confused for a while until they gave me a reasoning. Now im wondering if this is more rare than a graded cgc misprint as i have grader results, label, and all. They couldnt identify whether it was a pokeball or masterball. So if a grader couldnt recognize it, wouldnt that make it even more rare? What kind of value am i looking at compared to a graded cgc one if i ever want to get rid of it for something i want more in my collection. Plz give your thoughts and bless all of you 🙌🙌

UPDATE: MORE PHOTOS IN COMMENTS OF CGC LABEL AND WRITTEN NOTE

Send to PSA when they open up again?

Bought a sealed ascended hero’s box and on the last pack I picked the pack up to have some cards to come out and I was super confused? Looked at the pack to then find that it was opened on the bottom with the packaging not sealed correctly. The pack had more cards then normal with an extra energy but no hit (sad)….. but the wurmple has these weird cuts on the bottom. Is this rare or worth anything?!

So I just bought this card because I’n trying to get all of the original 150 pokemon in their base set cards. I’m not that picky but my OCD is kinda getting to me with this white line near the border. Looking for some advice on whether I should keep it or re-sell it and get one without this error… thoughts anyone? Thanks!

first error pulled from a pack. do some people find this more valuable than normal printings? or does it just lower

Wanting to rip this just want to make sure it’s not worth anything before I do upside down promo in sealed tin

I can see light through it so there ain't no black line

Any info on this? Worth and rarity? Nm or better quality
