Just because Panini sends you a card that is "sticker sealed"... doesn't mean you shouldn't take it out yourself and examine it before sending it off to be graded. Those cards have been handled by people at Panini before they're "sealed". There can be fingerprints, scratches, or even dimples on the card. Always check.
PSA really starting to piss me off. All the bigger cards they don't look to gem because they trying to keep pops low . Overall, very nice gem rate on that sub though bro
@@skybcardsyou should try SGC, I graded some of my favorite and best cards, and I only got on nine and I knew it would and all the others had print lines and they got a 9.5 or above
Yeah. For my sanity I’ve been doing SGC. I know they don’t sell for as much but I’m tired of these huge stacks of 8’s and lower. I look over the cards with magnifying glass etc.
@@alfonsonevarez2804SGC is on the come up. No influence on pop just straight up grading. And no up charge. I hope people start to realize psa is just ripping people off.
How did you prep and clean the cards before submission? please let us know on your next submission, I want to know. I never sent anything to PSA .... yet. But I am thinking about it. How did you prep these 50+ cards you sent in. Make sure you say something on all your next submission vids.
I think you had a very good sub here! We all know these ultra modern cards aren't all PSA 10 coming out of packs or straight from the factory as a redemption. It sucks I get that. Ive done decent on my cards I send in factory sealed. I hope to get some more videos up soon. Congrats!
Man might be worth cracking open a few of those 8s and resubmitting. That Garrett Wilson RPA looked pretty nice, at least in the video. You got a bunch of nice wemby 10s. Tyx for another great video
Great video bro!!! Congrats on all the 10's that's awsome!!! The grades on the redemption cards are pretty rough since they came straight from Panini!!!!
Thanks for posting. Sorry the big bangers didn't get the love! Im about to start putting together my first PSA submissions pile together. What package do you recommend to go with? I have a 1/1 superfractor and quite a few # /10, /25, and RCs to submit. Also, do you think the mosaic honeycomb for not as juicy players is worth submitting? I mean a graded turd is still a turd, no?
Hey, i’m trying to get into football cards and i had a few questions 1. What is the difference between hobby and retail? 2. What boxes should I buy that would give me the best chance to pull some nice cards?
Revent videos have been absolute FIRE. Loved the Nationals stuff and you just continue to grow your brand and getting even bigger. Not sure if you got this tip yet on the hard to sleeve die cuts. Sandwich it between two base cards and slide all 3 into the sleeve and then you just push up the base cards. Works everytime. See you Saturday!!!!!
Appreciate it a ton my brother 🙏🔥🙏🔥 and yeah you're right forsure in the sandwich the cards together. When I get more select I'll have to make a announcement about it cause i was struggling last vid 😂😂
@@skybcards So I just submitted my first 20 cards to PSA. I took my time going through 40 total to find the best 20. Used the centering tool, the magnifying glass on the corners and surface and used the microfiber cloth to clean. I bought a bunch of ealry 90s NBA, a little bit of baseball and football. 2 shaq's, 2 kobe's, 4 baseball cards (90 Topps Griffey, 1897 Topps Bo Jackson Future Stars, Jackson Holiday Bowman Mojo Refractor and a crazy 2023 topps archive 1989 double signature of ozzie smith and dave winfield Gold /25)and 12 MJ's. Nothing crazy but solid if they do well. I'll keep you posted on how I do.
Sky-B this is multiple submission and times I have seen you talk about the "straight from panini sticker" im praying you take them out of the one touches before sending them in (believe me a lot of people just send them still in the panini one touches" more often than not those cards have been beat up waiting on the autos. You have to take them out, clean them, really go over them to have any chance with them. secondly, your relics are the main ones that you're getting 8's on. You have to know that PSA is very hard on thicker relic cards. Majority of all relics graded with PSA get 8's. You expect an 8, you hope for 9 and miracle is the 10. If you need any help or someone to bounce ideas off of with your submissions or grading just let me know. I currently sit at 81% Gem rate with my submissions. For doing it myself I think thats an amazing number to be at!
What about for the flawless diamond cards? Should I be taking those out to? The players don't even autograph those, not trying to be a smart a... I really appreciate your insight man!
Agree with this, no matter where the card is sourced I clean myself, resleeve, and submit. My last order I went 20/20 on tens. Hoping for the same luck on this next one. Have never been lucky enough to get a 10 on a thick card
Hi Sky, Thanks for your review of your submission to PSA. I don’t know what they are doing at PSA but you really got graded hard. It’s such a crapshoot when getting cards graded. But you did get a whack of PSA 10s. Hopefully you are feeling even better today. It’s hot and humid here in Toronto but thank goodness for A/C! It just makes it harder to be comfortable outside. You did get a lot of Wemby 10s! Take care my friend and take care of yourself and Sammy. Much love bro, Peter
Yo yooooo goodmorning bro🙏 appreciate you tuning in the video, was definitely not the best submission in the world. Feeling a little better today, at midnight i went to Walmart and just bought a dang ac unit. Took me a hour to install but was WORTH IT🔥😂 slept great and actually wasn't 1,000 degrees in my room hahah. Stay cool bro! This hot weather is no joke! Have a great weekend also, much love bro🙏
I pulled a signed gold dustin poirier 1/1 topp chrome, how would you go about grading it and what’s the approximate value on it? Im thinking around 1000-1300 not to sure since it’s a 1/1
I sent over 120 cards to ask it seems that the 4 major companies are really being tough or rough on grading these days. I got only 5 tens out of all those cards. A few 9.5's the rest 9 down to 6. It's seems that PSA gives more 10s then the rest.😊
Hey quick question do you known when the best days for restocks are in your opinion because when ever i go to a store they have nothing, just wanna find my self some decent cards!
Hey man, if they’re in a panini redemption sticker take them out and put them in those preferred semi rigid holders, they might dock you just for sending them in the redemption top holders
I watch a lot of youtubers that do reveals of their psa submissions, and that is absolutely a pattern I've noticed that the higher end cards struggle to get good grades
Like the assortment but I like the zenith mosaic as well i don't know why they didn't number those that would have been cool but very nice submission and collection great video thanks for sharing.
Need to start taking the redemption cards out of the cases before sending. Panini is good about getting finger prints on the cards amd such. I opened one and it had a dinged corner right out of the damn redemption case
Those grades are tough! I could see some 9's but 7 and 8 on 1/1's kind of ridiculous you ask me. I sent some older cards in 11 nolan ryan cards couple ken griffeys and bo jackson plus some aaron judge an emmitt smith total of 19 cards and believe it or not i had 1 psa5 and 2 psa 8s the rest was 9 and 4 10s
@@skybcards yeah… I used to do that too but lately I’ve had better success just mixing them all up 🤷♂️… I thought that helping them would make them more lenient but now I think they compare them more closely since it’s right before/after … & always put a 9 before one I really want a 10 on lol
I've recommended them before and I'll do it again. Arena Club for grading. AI graded. True grades without the human factor. I did a review on my other channel Fontana Collectibles if you want to see what it looks like.
I look at mine under 30x magnification, then send them off to be looked at by someone else before authentication, and I still only have a 10 rate of 50%. PSA is tough.
yo Sky B i got this trae young rookie card, but it is numbered out of 99. i can't not find this card up for sale but only out of 199, or higher. its like a portraits card of him, pretty sick raw card , was hoping you or someone knew what i should be asking for it.
It seems that when you submit with the company sticker on PSA goes out of its way to grade lower. Resubmit those higher cards and do a video on the results. Not sure I’ve seen a video like that before. Good video, feel for you on some of those higher-end cards.
Someone commented that panini doesn't clean or prep the cards when they come in redemptions like that so there're all dirty from the athletes touching them? Hahaha
@@skybcards That is true, but if you knew you could prep it better wouldn’t you want to at least find out? Besides, it’s a write-off anyways. Also, your loyal fans would wait with baited breath on the results. 🤪😆

That was a pretty good submission and a great video! I only Collect football so it’s good to know that those purple shocks grade really well!
That was a real roller coaster ride there. Thanks for the video. Enjoyed the stream of bangers

Nice sub bro. Definitely alot of value added to your cards. PSA never gives me 10s on my biggest cards. Keep up the good work👊🍻
Love the PSA videos keep up the great work
Thanks! Will do🙏
Oh
love all the grades! keep collecting great stuff
Great video bro,your 100% right with the low grades on big cards.Ive had better luck sending big cards separately.Congrats on that tower of 10s!
I think that's the goal moving forward. Send the bigger cards in their own personal submission and bulk out the smaller stuff
Jamar Chase Zoom might be the coolest card I've ever seen! And Burrow be the only one I wouldn't be mad to get a No. 9 grade!🐅
Amazing video bro love your collection keep up the great videos
Appreciate it a ton bro🙏
@@skybcards your welcome bro
Sweet PSA 10 haul. Stinks about those bigger cards though.
Nice haul for sure my brotha! My SGC submission gets here Monday that I put in at Nationals so hopefully they do me right 🤣🙏
Sending the card god blessings your way my brotha 🔥🤞🤞🤞
@@skybcards thanks bro! I’ll keep you posted for sure 🔥🔥🔥
Do you clean them before sending in? Might make a big difference
The man is back can’t wait for Saturday my dude
Let's get active for da 1 timeeee🔥🔥🙏🙏 you already know my brother, hope you're ready!!

Another banger of a vid! Looking to start grading and sellin soon!
Hey, i’m trying to get into football cards and i had a few questions
1. What is the difference between hobby and retail?
2. What boxes should I buy that would give me the best chance to pull some nice cards?
Just now was able to read/most some of you tattoo on your left arm... Respect!!
6:07: Love this Penei Sewell! Would be a sick card for my PC!
Penei is my main PC, my collection of him is insane man
Whatsup Sky-B, our favorite local MJ Holdings stocker.
Great video. Beautiful looking cards. Unfortunately you got a lot of 8 on Flawless card. Hard to see that knowing how expensive they can be.
Sky b cards cards what my favorite part about you is that you open cards and I love cards and you're always answering our comments
Appreciate that a ton my bro💪🔥
You got the shiz man , keep it up
Nice submission brother.. thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching🙏
Always comes out with bangers
You know how we do it bro💪
Man Penei's cards were fire. I miss when they were a little more affordable. I have some bangers from back then.

Also on some of those bigger cards like the Brandon Aiyuk. Does psa upcharge you for those 3 or 4?
Did you pull most of these are did you buy most of these raw?
Starcade is such a cool insert that doesn’t get enough love
Agreed for sure
love these psa reveal vids
The Wemby collection is a banger🔥

How long does it take them to scan your cards in?
Very good - I would be happy. Have a great day.
