Thoughts On Graded Cards

[@thrusteavis]

Videogame grading is going crazy too - I've never met a person irl that is at all interested in collecting graded or sealed product. Think it's overhyped rn and that it's gonna crash down to actually meet demand

I've always had a hard time finding value in graded cards because it's purely based on someone's opinion in a third party company. If konami did it themselves (not that I recommend it), I would at least feel more value in it

[@dungeonslug5244]

I can't ever see myself getting into graded cards (Maybe at some point I'd buy a graded card if it was sentimental to me or something). I like to collect but I consider myself a player of the game first so I personally don't see the appeal of owning cards I can't use. I also view tcgs as a hobby, not an investment.

I don't care for psa cards. I typically go for lightly played at worst and am happy with that

Wouldn't be surprised if the hype for TCGs dies in the future. The prices for a lot of these cards are comically high right now.

Facts! Tcg’s have gotten a bit too mainstream

[@naonna1]

it doesn't matter if i spent 400 dollars on a deck if no one is willing to buy the cards inside it now. (Gyze premium deck for Vanguard, for context)

[@francosmith4107]

Graded cards are just an investors way to corner markets on a handful of cards they buy lp/nm get those cards graded then cut people off of PLAYING the cards because everything that’s left is beat up cardboard. Artificial inflation

[@JuwanBuchanan]

Never understood the appeal of it.
