fantastic labels, brilliant slabs, fast service and doesn't break the bank. The ONLY thing I don't like about ACE is that they can be quite harsh on grades sometimes, but I reckon its to make those 10's more exclusive. (also wasn't a huge fan of them slabbing them in sleeves now, but I don't really care)
UK companies in a 10 will add value regardless of the company but people will always prefer the US companies if there grading to sell. The pull for people in the UK is the turnaround times especially with whatnot streamers as people cant have money tied up for months! Personally i see a shift to people using UK companies more and as new collectors come into the hobby or people come back into the hobby i think itll only increase. Would just be nice for everyone to encourage every company as opposed to slate any others they dont use to try inflate thier own collection!
The pokemon community really keeping the grading companies going, I could never even conceive of grading a card worth anything less than 100 or printed in the last 15 or so years. Very informative video but also interesting to see that it just seems to be the done thing in Pokemon to kinda grade any old thing
Thanks for the video! I wish I can use Ace Grading. But shipping costs from US to UK is about 80 USD with DHL. I created my ACE grading account, selected 2 cards, and made it to the confirm submission page only to realize that the shipping costs more than the grading. This was my first time attempting to grade any card and I liked the Ace labeling, which is not something found here in the US at the moment, I believe. Will Ace have US presence one day so I can ship my cards locally? 😅
hey bud yeah that's a lot for shipping! I have just asked them if they have a middleman out there yet will let you know. OR drop them an email see if they can bring the cost down for you?
Some great cards there man! Great that your doing this again for your chosen charity 👏🏻 Did the Sobble on the Ball get a 9 in end or did it stay as a 8 😂
Ace labels are so nice. i only use Ace now they do One Piece and DBS also. Slowly sending my collection. I'll add, Ace are so strict though, im tempted send my 9's to PSA or BGS but then again i do only like the perfect cards and the grading report is defiantly pretty awesome so most likely just sell them
Really devating if I should go with ace or pokegrade. Ace grading seems to be used more and I prefer the labels but I also like the look of pokegrade so im not too sure?
personally I think ace grading is better than psa. with ace grading they put the card is a plastic sleeve before it goes in the slab this adds extra protection
So if you purely want to try and add value it’s PSA right now however ace are climbing and much faster turnaround it’s like 2 weeks! Also loads cheaper too
Doesn’t randy own ace grading ? Anyways I would like to see him do well especially for Europe in its entirety. As us Americans have PSA and they need healthy competition
*what do you think about ace grading?*

Yeah I don’t like the sleeve inside I actually think that could stop soon due to complaints!

Do you know what are turnaround times for ACE?
@@ant_989 depends which service you use usually its anywhere from 2 - 20 business days. Obviously you're paying a lot more to get it back in 2 days.
Really useful video Matt, thanks for sharing. I haven't used Ace yet, but certainly will for my first ever batch.
My pleasure buddy

Love your channel mate. I’m in Sussex too and just making the move into Pokemon card collecting. Good work! Benn
Yooo thank you buddy 😊😊😊
Amazing charity my man! My son was also born 2 months early in February. Keep up the great work dude 👌
Thank you bud ❤️
the reason why only 10s "add value" is people buying them to send to PSA
The Americans love da PSA but honestly they have Stevie wonder grading cards at PSA and Americans love big Stevie. 👽Aliens exist.
I do this with ACE 9s
So true PSA aint wot they were im not a fan of them so many good ones out there and Ace looks so clean
I got 3 9s from ace cracked them all open sent to psa and they all
came back 10
Ace 9 is a psa 10.What does that say about psa grading.
I love the extra artwork they make on ACE GRADING
So nice right
@@Mattculli yes!
Top video hope you smash that target all the best for it 🤞
Thank you buddy 😊
Some awesome pick ups there. I’m actually moving away from UK companies, moving more towards CGC 😅
Ohhhh I see how it is 😂

I send my DBS too love them!
The problem is that your basing the graded prices on PSA, when the whole point of the video is to find out if Ace adds value
some great cards there mr culli!!
Why thank you kind sir

I like both but for me ace has the bigger rep and the nice labels so that my choice
@Mattculli ok, I'll use Ace then!
Beautiful cards
Thank you bud

Yh but they are worth way less than psa psa 10 and ace 10 is night and day mate
@@user-hq7js2wf7h I've seen videos of psa graded cards get regraded by ace grading and they get a higher grade
I have 5 cards I wanna grade shall I pick ace or psa?

@@Mattculli has ace gotta any better or still the same answer? :)

Yeah bud Randy and Tom own it
Is the sound out of sync on this or is it just me?
I think that’s just you bud might be your speakers or headphones
Can you say what are the turnaround times for Ace?
So the cheapest service is 20 working days and that’s £10
Hair dye delivery 🤣
