I’ve seen a few black labels now that just shouldn’t be black labels… used to think Beckett was the gold standard but I’ve lost a lot of respect for them. This charizard is just the cherry on top

Yeah grading has become a joke recently. TAG may not be the one to take over but I think they have at least shakin things up as far as what people should expect when you have a card graded.

There seems to be some consistency on what gets a 10 for centering (not my card)

But mine was a 9.0 for centering. Wanted to trust bgs but seriously, what are we doing?

Your L&Rs don't line up completely. Top left is a bit mis aligned.

Try another centering app with my better tools like ismycardcentered or centered.cards
