I stand corrected, PSA is Fuc*ing up with allowing this to happen. Once again, this is why I don't GRADE MY CARDS.

[@paolosstore]

@@ogshoeplugogshoeplug5039 yup. PSA really screwed up with these and so many people told them so many times. Now there are tons of fake/reprint cards with autos in PSA slabs and too many people paid real card money for them not knowing the cards were fake.

Don’t auction anything high end right now, you’ll get super-hosed.

[@paolosstore]

The market is kind of down. Are you thinking of anything specific? Have you had this experience recently?

[@ogshoeplugogshoeplug5039]

The GEM MT 10 is for the CARD and the Autograph was verified by PSA/DNA but not graded. With all that being said, this is a PSA GEM MT 10 Khazmat Card with a PSA/DNA verified Autograph. Now YOU know.

[@paolosstore]

Hey, this is a great convo as it shows how confusing PSA's grading of signatures but not the card is. Thatr's why they changed how they do it, but it's still not explicit enough. This card is not graded. That's why it says "trading card." The submitter only sent in for an auto grade. Check the cert # on PSA. The auto is GEM MINT 10. The card is ungraded. The problem with this PSA practice is that within the last two years or so, a ton of people realized you could send in any card with an auto and get just the auto graded and not the card, so people started getting fake cards and reprint cards of high value cards autographed, then sent to PSA and had just the auto graded. Having the PSA label on it, with an auto grade, led to confusion in the marketplace and led to many people buying reprint cards with autos that they thought were real cards but weren't. There has been a lot of criticism directed at PSA for this practice. @RattlePokemon has done good videos on this. See here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqS5oZ5-h9R1abc

@@paolosstore If this is the case, there should not be GEM MT by the GRADE. GEM MT is only for CARDS. You cannot have a GEM MT Autograph. This is why I NEVER send anything into PSA for grading. It's all a SCAM!

[@ogshoeplugogshoeplug5039]

The card is GRADED, not the AUTO. Now you know!

[@paolosstore]

The Khazmat? The autos are graded, the card is not.

[@ogshoeplugogshoeplug5039]

@@paolosstore You are Wrong I'm sorry to say. If the Auto was graded it would have a Score of 1-10 applied. The GEM MT is ALWAYS for the CARD CONDITION. The PSN/DNA means the AUTO was VERIFIED Authentic but NOT GRADDED. The person who sent this card in chose not to grade the auto, only verify its authenticity. Common sense would tell you that an Autograph cannot be GEM MINT, it would only have a score of 1-10. The GEM MT 10 is for the CARD and the Autograph was verified by PSA/DNA but not graded. With all that being said, this is a PSA GEM MT 10 Khazmat Card with a PSA/DNA verified Autograph. Now YOU know.

@@ogshoeplugogshoeplug5039 See my comment above. You're incorrect. Here is the PSA database on the card. www.psacard.com/cert/84959134/dna If you remove the /dna from that link, (Which signifies it is an auto card) and look at just the number, it is for a totally different card. This Khazmat card is not graded. Just the auto.

[@BestBallCabal]

Thats not rare. Weaponized mathematics. Cherry picking. Grading doesnt make anything more rare. Its just overpriced plastic waste.

[@paolosstore]

The Clemens? It's the only PSA 1 graded copy in the entire universe. That's very rare.

[@BestBallCabal]

@@paolosstore I just wiped my ass with a Clemens. There is now two.

[@paolosstore]

​@@BestBallCabalthere is only one PSA 1 in the entire universe. Doesnt get any rarer than that. This is one of the rarest Roger Clemens' card inn existence..
