Grading Expensive Anime Cards with PSA - GEM MINT MIKE?!

[@da-yh3uy]

psa10 is not even a regular bgs 10... id recommend grading with bgs for weiss cards- the cards move around too much in a psa case

[@PokeMike]

I do send to BGS as well, but if the card doesn’t have a good shot at a black label I send to psa for the psa 10 instead. For value BGS 9.5 typically sells less than a psa 10 even though I’ve had some BGS 9.5s (two 9.5s and two 10s on the subgrades so only 1 sub grade away from a 10 and two sub grades away from a black label) that are better condition than most psa 10s. So value wise doesn’t make sense to send to BGS if I know it’s likely it could come back a 9.5. Only my super clean cards go to BGS 😃

I was about to ask why you dont semd to BGS but this answered that and made a lot of sense. Probably adopting this myself now ​@PokeMike

@@CCGtavernyeh i find it the best way to maximum your value plus I really don’t like having a BGS 9.5 😂 its 10 or nothing for me haha

@@PokeMike 10's definitely hit different 😂

Congrats Mike, overall some great results. Let us know if you work out why you got the 6 and 7 grades.

PSA 9 on Mai, it's cool. Even every Weiss schwarz player/collectors wanted that card.

[@PokeMike]

Count to 10 with PSA ... 6 then 10 that's it

[@PokeMike]

Haha yeh that’s why the 8 with the mark/indent confused me, that’s normally a 6 haha
