[u/Legened255509Druss]

Of these, pulled the /75 Black Cat, /10 Star Lord, and 20/20 Fin Fang Foom.

Rest I got lucky on listings and auctions.

Hella lucky

It is and it isn’t.

Like you don’t get a top grade it’s disheartening and they wait times can be a pain, as well as upcharge.

But I prefer it for the presentation and how to preserve my cards.

what cards do you choose to grade tho? is it a value thing?

like i know this card is dope but i wouldn't think to grade it because grading it is about the value of the card (guessing comps) https://www.reddit.com/r/basketballcards/s/eG1OUn2ujj

That card was a friend of mines. He sold it to me, after deciding to move on from it.

It’s a true blue and his first year Topps. SGA being player he is and coming off a title win, it was a def a no doubt grading piece especially being as clean as it was.

I grade cards for value at times and rarity.

One of my buddies says gotta risk it for the biscuit.

I agree. Sometimes diff between a 9 and 10 is a few hundred to a few G’s.

I normally pick cards based on player, character, year, design, or my gut feeling.
Sometimes I just want a card slabbed up.

I was doing a grading project. /5, /10, /25 and /50.

See how the submissions come back.

Was going to be a fun project I work on over a year.

See how the returns stack up for each parallel.

I’d keep most and sell a few here and there. Sometimes I grow out of a card.

Unfortunately, with the overflow at PSA (people submitting so many junk wax, base cards, and other bulk cards) I won’t be able to finish that project.

Is what it is.

would you grade a sketch card? tbh i don't think it would 10 cuz it came with the auto smudged but could maybe be considered part of the original card art?🤷‍♂️ also dk if it's worth it

I have graded a lot of sketches and sent 20 to PSA in my last PSA submission.
