PSA Blind Reveal 🔥 Jordan, Luka, Ant-Man, and HUGE Paolo!

Today I'm revealing the grades from last month's 20-card PSA sub. I sent these off to PSA on Oct. 2nd, and I got them back on Nov. 16th. Not bad!

I really enjoyed this reveal! It was great to see a flashback to the preview video so we can see what the cards looked like before you sent them in. Bummer on that Jabari, is there anything PSA can do about that? Not sure it would really be worth the hassle though. But you more than made up for it with some of those gems! That blue laser Paolo is SWEEEEEET!

[@SageTheCollector]

The crazy thing about that Jabari is, I went and looked at the PSA photos of the card in the slab on their site, and the little fleck isn't in the slab! 🤷🏼‍♂️ And, yes, that Paolo is pret-ty, pret-ty sweet.

[@Bangpaulxu]

Love PSA reveal videos!!!!! Catching up on your videos! 🔥🔥🔥💪💪💪🤩🤩🤩 that Jabari thing on the back…. Hmmmmm😮

[@SageTheCollector]

I went and checked the PSA photo on their site, and the fleck isn't in the photo! 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@CardManic]

Sage with the football!!!! that color match numbered Paolo is NUTS!!!

[@SageTheCollector]

Ha. Yeah. That may never happen again, unless I find my Eric Dickerson. 😁

[@MPROULX2]

I just got back my first PSA submission. Unfortunately got some 6 and 7 grades on old Jordan cards but that’s okay… learning experience for next time.

[@Sportz4Life1]

I know how you feel, when I first got into the hobby I had no clue what I was doing and sent in 2 cards that I thought were in good condition. They ended up coming back as a 4 and 5! Now I know how strict they really are on these types of things.

[@junbug5595]

Thanks for sharing congrats on the sweet graded cards 🔥🔥🔥 hope Zach Comes home to LA what you 🤔

[@SageTheCollector]

That certainly seems like where he wants to go

[@robertkeenan7530]

Keep an eye on thompson. He might be a sneaky pick for ROY depending on injuries and how the rest of the year plays out injury wise.

[@SageTheCollector]

I assume you mean Ausar. Yeah, I don't think he'll win ROY unless Wemby and Chet get insured, but I definitely have my eye on him. He is a defensive beast so far.

[@SpursCards21]

That’s more 9s and 8s than 10s! Get them Ojos checked! Subbing the Galactic in the bulk was a bold move cotton! Big cards like that don’t usually grade well.

[@SageTheCollector]

You and your conspiracy theories 😁

[@lukebattiston9614]

Nice vid 👍 some good results, what would the Paolo blue lazer /25 be worth? I’ve got his jersey number, colour match /25 rated rookie auto

[@SageTheCollector]

Not sure since there aren't any comps, but I'd say ~$400 maybe?

[@SageTheCollector]

Thanks for subbing! Yeah, that Paolo is very nice. 🔥

[@TRENCHBUILDER22]

How much does psa charge to grade per card? Wondering whether to go sgc or psa. Last question, how do you clean up your cards before grading?

[@lindycheong7165]

it cost 25 dollars to grade a card if you are not a psa member but i'm not sure how to become a member

[@SageTheCollector]

I'm a PSA club member, so it's $19/card. I submit enough cards that it makes sense to pay to be a club member. If you're only going to submit a few cards per year, just find a place like PC Sports Cards that does submissions.

[@SageTheCollector]

I just use a microfiber cloth

[@jonathandavid9389]

I've been wanting to send cards to grade some for pc & some to sell but I don't know if I have the patience to wait on them if I decide to send of my sports collection which mainly consist of NBA, NFL, ufc & wrestling. Somes days my brain is telling me if I really want to test it out then I should send of my Pokémon cards which I started out with just for fun & nothing too serious when I got to recollecting about 3 years ago now

[@SageTheCollector]

You'd get the cards back in under 2 months. They'll be back before you know it.

[@ScaryTerryCards]

Pretty decent grades, wish we could all get 10s but still nice. You know PSA has to control the market, just like the refs manage the games for Vegas.

[@SageTheCollector]

Ha. 😁 But I'm not in the camp that believes in the whole "pop control" thing.

That sucks on the one card, definitely gotta check the photos when they received them!

[@SageTheCollector]

PSA only takes photos after the card is in the slab, but I did look at the photo of the back of the Jabari slab, and that fleck isn't in the photo. 🤔

[@DarinsCards]

I love you and your videos, one piece of constructive criticism, you move the slabs and shake them as you are displaying them, I try to read the label and can’t. 😂 it’s because you talk with your hands also. 😂

[@SageTheCollector]

My hands can't be stopped. They have a mind of their own. 😁

[@robertkeenan7530]

Jabari isnt doing too great. His stats arent too good for how many minutes hes getting. Im borderline dropping him from my fantasy team. Hes the next man out if anybody better comes up in the waivers.

[@SageTheCollector]

Yeah. He definitely didn't take a leap this year, and his minutes are starting to dwindle.

[@SpursCards21]

We’ve already known your Ojos are bad! I can see the specs on the back of the revolution 😀

[@SageTheCollector]

The speck wasn't in the slab on the PSA website photo. The mystery deepens...

[@SpursCards21]

@@SageTheCollector as Ron Burgundy would say: That Makes no sense! The card is slabbed when the scans are taken. Maybe it depends on the direction of the light.

[@iwioz]

Dont understand why you would send this $10/15 cards and pay $19 bucks just to hopefully make it no more than $100 card. Majority of these should not have been sent. Not hating just trying to make sense of it. Nice video

[@SageTheCollector]

I do it because it's fun to do, and it's simple math the way I do it. On average, I come out ahead. Usually, w/ the cards I submit, the value added (even after grading fees) by turning a card into a PSA 10 is greater than the money lost if it comes back a 9. And I usually get more 10s than 9s. So, on average, I come out ahead. A few of these didn't make sense to submit at current player values, but I think they have the potential to go up in the near future (e.g. Kuminga, Jabari, etc.).

[@iwioz]

@@SageTheCollector considering how inconsistent psa is, i would just send #d, ssp, or autos. I only send in $100 cards that cost the same to grade for potential $400 to $500. It is fun, just not worth the risk with low cost cards. Not too mention price of opening boxes for said card.

[@SageTheCollector]

@@iwioz You're definitely playing it safe, which is smart. I like to roll the dice...a lot. 😁

Yea send da clip to psa n they gotta refund the money of the card sub or what its worth of it was a 10
