How to Submit Your Cards to PSA in 2021!

[@intothesoulpodcast5614]

Thank you so much for making the grading process so easy. I just submitted my first 3 cards for grading to see how the process goes before I really inspect my entire collection for a bulk grade. Thank you again!

[@briane8714]

You have inspired me to take a more serious look at my own cards instead of relying on my local card shop. Thanks once again. Love the videos!

[@bigmaccc34]

Geoff I really appreciate your insights. Getting back into the hobby since I was a kid collecting basketball cards. And it’s great to have someone like you bring me back up to speed!!! Thank you man!

[@XBojangsX]

Bruh Joe looked annoyed as hell when you did your intro 😂

[@superbad0415]

I agree. His face turned.

[@miket2951]

this dude doesnt even inspect the back of his cards. smh

[@Ynnojs1128]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@thepullsportscards]

That's Joe! He is a chill dude, but a smart and good guy to listen too in this hobby.

[@travisgreene3509]

That’s how everyone looks

[@yan2987]

Two of my friends finally joined Market Mover this week end and they love it! I was getting really fed up of feeding them deals every week over the phone. Geoff, 9 rejects! Join the club, I did awful also on my grading skills. Great video.

[@SpiffyMcZender]

Joe was grinning like a Cheshire Cat after catching all those flaws on Geoff's cards.

[@PMac]

And Geoff looked genuinely pissed! Love it

[@phillyfansufferer]

@@PMac Geoff also gets upset when he has to go over 5 seconds without speaking. It's rare when one of his guests gets to complete a sentence before Geoff starts chiming in and talking over them before they're even finished

[@slowyo9645]

@@phillyfansufferer Speculating, but it's scripted. Or, he looked them over and was aware that Joe would catch them for content. If they were all perfect, this video would be 3-minutes long.

Great content! I just sent Joe my first PSA order of 126 cards and I'm super excited!!

[@oneshotgrow]

Chances are they are going to be sent back to you since they can't submit them

[@stevedistefano5494]

I really appreciate KZbin channel. I started collecting, back in the 1980s, then stopped. I’m just starting to get back into collecting; I am using collecting for investment, for myself and grandsons. While I had some idea about grading I never would have thought it was so intense. Also, I really wasn’t sure what sets to invest with; there are a lot more sets available, today, than 40 years ago. I did watch your sports cards 101. I’m looking forward to expanding my knowledge, thru your channel, and if they are interested, passing that on to my grandsons. Thank you

[@miketyson8933]

Im with ya, I just got back into it as well, opened up a pack and got a Gold rare Scottie Barnes #4 out of 10 and Scottie's number is 4 and that's what collectors want so my card can be worth more then any of the others and by a LOT especially if it hits a 10

[@Wiscollectibles]

I heard a tip recently that you should use thick card sleeves with the card savers- they are a little bit wider, so less likely to catch a corner of the card, and easier for the grader to remove the card from the sleeve.

[@superbad0415]

i have seen psa 10 with surface scratch. This was on the 2020 Select. The scratch was pretty small. But if you have a long scratch probably the highest grade you might get is a psa 9 or 8.

[@MacawVR]

7:55 corners centering edges surface, clean them put in card savers wipe with microfiber cloth

[@MacawVR]

(Hold by edges while doing it so no fingerprints)

[@josephsciascia217]

I think you can see the cards better if you take the card out of the penny sleeve

[@hayduranium]

They were and I’m pretty sure these two know what they’re doing

[@PMac]

Ahhh... the magic of video editing!

[@dmac7403]

Yeah but you can also put finger prints on them and that can lower the value and damage your card the less you handle it the better .

[@benjason8863]

I also wish you would submit some of those with print lines and super minor defects so we can see how PSA grades them, for the sake of us, the viewers. :)

[@michaelrusso6822]

I'll still send a good deal of cards in even if I only think they will grade a 9. With this latest PSA price increase, you're going to see PSA 9's card values rise further above the value of a raw version of the same card.

[@usefulidiots3970]

I think that will happen eventually, but not for quit a while yet. The issue is the massive backlog at psa is the issue. The market will be flooded with so many graded cards. I think we will be ok with the higher end cards, but the days of every card being graded and prices skyrocketing is almost over, and that is for the better. Every card being in a slab cheapens the whole idea.

When looking at cards for grading you must remove all personal feelings. Period.

[@RUSSBOSKI88]

Scratches on card are so hard to find you need a nice light to find them I noticed buying raw cards on eBay a high percentage will have scratches and the seller will list as mint

[@derekhead7068]

I realize this video is 3 years old, just now watching it, but was there ever a video made of getting these cards back from PSA that you guys reviewed before sending them??? I can’t seem to find the video with these cards.

[@fademmlg]

Gotta love Joe Davis… haha the man is just about it.

Just the video i needed

[@benjason8863]

Hope somebody can answer my question. I'm noticing that some of the 90s cards grade well with PSA despite having obvious edge issues or some corner wear. I'd just like to know if they adjust their standards for these modern cards vs the ultra modern cards? Or maybe they grade the older cards in comparison with how they've graded the same card before? Thanks in advance to anyone :)

[@Codymurray293]

Hi, so the reason why the older cards grade better. So the standards are higher than more modern cards. So typically they will let more things slide 😀

[@toddhale5387]

90's is junk wax era...with it all about $ obviously they can afford to give the junk wax era some love to keep the $ rolling in.I love the flashy new cards but ill never buy or collect anything above 1979.

[@rspbc]

Confused.....The grading prices seem very low compared to the new PSA grading prices. Is this an old video? And why are you basing your estimated value at raw prices? PSA clearly states the estimate should be what the value would be after the card is graded.

[@jamiemack1981]

How about light surface scratches on the back of cards ?

[@mman12]

Was there a followup video of the ones that were sent in?

[@sewaseem]

Great info here, were your cards from pack pulls of your own or were they singles you had bought raw?

Hey Geoff, what’s the best centering tool on the market, currently? Love the content. Just submitted my first batch to Joe this past week! Great service so far and very professional!

[@schnurrfpv4594]

I use the grade master its worked great for me

[@billysmalls6850]

Is this an old video? The bulk submission prices were off. They start at 20 now. Video showed 16 after your fees added.

[@PMac]

The pricing is shown on the spreadsheet in the video as $20 for ultra modern (2018+) but the card being reviewed was pre-2018 which is $16.

[@Lawson0550]

How does everyone go about determined the value of their cards before any type of submission?

[@ronfukui5996]

Will Joe accept and pre-screen any cards that PSA accepts for grading, or do they have to be sports cards? Enjoy your videos. Thanks!

I always wanted a Jim Thorpe 1955 football card but the prices were always too high…I finally bought one ungraded and now I want to have it graded.. Not to sell but to keep. What’s the best way to do that?

[@systemtrend3194]

And how do the fees work for Joe’s shop? Flat fee or percentage based on the graded card? What are the fees?

[@maximusstorie6090]

love your videos

[@SPOOKYTOFU]

Do you do Pokémon cards as well?

[@yycvintagecards]

Why are you basing your declared value on raw prices? PSA clearly states that declared value is to be based on your projected graded value.

[@dustinandrews7409]

Exactly what I wanted to know. So do we use raw or the grade value we hope for?

[@yycvintagecards]

@@dustinandrews7409 PSA's website has this info in the FAQ: Q: What is a Declared Value? A: When submitting these items, you will also be required to enter a Declared Value. We understand you will not know the True Value of the item until it is authenticated, so we ask that you form a realistic, educated guess based on your own research, keeping in mind the Declared Value is also used for insurance purposes. This seems to be contrary to what Geoff showed in the video. I would be concerned that if something happened to your card, you would only be insured for the value that you entered as Declared Value.

[@dustinandrews7409]

@@yycvintagecards thank you for your time and the clarification on that. I'm really nervous about submitting my cards right now and loosing money. I have 8 Shaq rookies one gold. I bought a centering tool and they look great. Plus 14 good 93 Jordan's. Would you recommend base submission or speed up the process on these cards?

[@23ajshuffle]

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction. My grandfather's collection was passed down to me. Various years and sports such as hockey cards from the 50's I believe (could be wrong). He was also in a semi famous band back in the 60's called The Five Americans, I am not sure if that gives the collection more value but I have thousands of cards and have no idea how to even start getting them valued and graded especially since I can't afford to get each card graded. Any tips or advice?

can we put them into hard loaders instead? would psa not take them ?

It's difficult for me to submit any card for grading when these companies want a percentage of it's value even when I have no intention of selling the card.

This is what makes me wonder why people love graded cards to me it makes no sense unless your wealthy and OCD or just want to take advantage of people who are by selling them PSA graded cards

[@rahiqalam]

PSA's center grading sucks for less expensive cards. Everyone flooding them with lower value cards, so you pay them more for the extra attention they're giving your valuable card. Also probably why they have a good reputation, all their expensive cards are actually being graded properly. Personally I think AI grading companies like AGS is the future.

[@ojiang86]

Agreed.

[@surgery318]

I have a question regarding surface. Sometimes I will be able to see what looks like print lines or a faint scratch with the naked eye and a light source. However, when I put the 10x magnifier to it with a light source, there's no indent or damage to the card, I don't see the print line or whatever it is I'm seeing with my naked eye. Does this happen to you and in these cases what do you do about submitting if the card otherwise looks perfect?
