    Even after submitting some cards recently to PSA, I still learned from this video. The tabs no longer being necessary blew my mind. Didn't know they cut the card savers!

  • @brandony8691
    @brandony8691 Год назад +10

    Super pumped to see this follow-up video! I was one of the ones that commented on your prior video that they don't want the pull tabs and that they want you to estimate the post-graded value. Really cool to see you following up and discussing those points here.
    I totally agree with you by the way. I really dislike the fact that they basically are saying you need to price your post-graded card before you actually get it graded. In the case where you are submitting a large number of older, potentially more valuable cards, it can really be stressful trying to figure out whether you think something will be a 10 and be worth $3,000 (thus requiring you to pay $75 for grading), or be a 7, 8, or 9 and dropping to a value of $100 (and thus you spent $75 to grade a $100 card when you could have simply spent $15 for the TCG bulk rate).

    • @Arla94
      @Arla94 10 месяцев назад +1

      If you're not sure you just buy the cheaper option, and then if it gets a 10 they charge you the difference anyway before they will send it back. Otherwise if you paid for a 10 and it gets a 9, they don't refund you the difference.

    one thing I like to do is put all the cards (in semi-rigids) in pokemon tins. It fits nicely inside and the tin provides great protection in transit. you can wrap the cards once in bubble wrap or put styrofoam pieces to make things nice and snug.

    "it might not be obvious to everyone" as someone who just got into collecting and spent $2k this month i apprecaiated that info. I also self taught to just put the card name and the number so like charizard 12/108 or whatever and it will usually say the set on ebay

    PSA collection club only makes sense for very large submissions 50+. The more you submit the cheaper it is, so instead of paying $2500 for 100 regular card grade submissions you would pay $1600 which is quite substantial.

  • @Rodneyschaffer3214
    @Rodneyschaffer3214 5 месяцев назад +3

    Couple questions.. so we have to determine our own declared value, so I would guess you take the market value of what let’s say a 9 of a gengar Alt from FS, if you think that’s what it’ll get. So what happens if you’re slightly off either under or higher? And if I’m in the 500 value bulk let’s say my Charizard unlimited base gets an 8 or a 9 which brings it over 500 but under 700 what kind of up charges does that incur and how do they get that from you?

      @@thetownsmen2.1 No, you don't actually pay for the cards until the very end after they've graded everything...so even if you submit at the bulk level for $15 per card, they can end up charging you more at the very end if the cards are worth more than bulk value limit ($199 per card). They don't always research the values very well, so you can sometimes get away with paying $15 per card for a lot of cards worth more than the $199 value limit.

    I send my pokemon at TCG value $15 and never got upcharge even for a money card. I don't get greed with it either. i hide 1-3 money cards in the submission. works like a charm. I think PSA says $200 limit value but i think if u sent 20 cards. They times it. So equals $4000 in value. Most of the time 15-17 cards you sending are not worth that high raw. So that's why i think i never get upcharges on cards that are easy $500 and up graded an GEM Mint 10.

    I have several first edition shadowless foils, that have been stored in a binder, in good temp and humidity, since the moment they were opened in the 90s. what level of declared value do you suggest using?

    Thanks for showing this fam! PSA graded cards are highly sought after by collectors and often carry a higher value due to their verified condition and authenticity.

    Do you need to put them in the vaultx thing or things like that or can you just put it in a shelve
