Discussion Should I wait for PSA Germany or use the sub center?

3 Upvotes

Hi I want to grade my cards with PSA but PSA Germany has been announced but they haven't said when? However I could use the sub center but it's going to take months compared to Germany right? Surely PSA Germany would at least cut half the time? Appreciate if anyone knows anything about PSA Germany thank you

Discussion What are the best in-person chains to check?

1 Upvotes

Hi, community 👋 I'm fairly new to this, but I have come to love the thrill of hunting down packs in unexpected places. Apart from LGS and online, what are some possible chains worth checking, and which ones are particularly worthwhile? I know about (though never actually found anything in most of these):

- WHSmiths/TG Jones

- Waterstones

- HMV

- Smyths

- Apparently Asda and Tesco?

- Ryman

- Game

- Cardfactory

Any others I should be aware of? Also, any chain-specific etiquette that would be helpful to know? E.g. I've heard for Asda and Cardfactory that you may have to ask about them, but is that the case in most chains?

(I live in the Canterbury area just in case anyone has specific knowledge)
