ACTUALLY by each companies own definition the 10’s are the same! CGC offers a pristine though, which I think benefits the consumer at the end of the day! But what I learned at a Card show yesterday from a very nice vendor was that on the weighted scale out of the four categories CGC will award a gem mint 10 if 2 9.5’s are present within the four weighted categories whereas a PSA 10 you are only allowed to have one category at a 9.5 if there are two categories at a 9.5 then it automatically goes to a nine by PSA standards. This is the only discrepancy that I’ve seen but with CGC’s pristine option it actually makes a lot of sense as to why they would do that. But also 2 10’s and 2 9.5’s averages to a 9.75 overall grade which let’s be honest is a 10 not a perfect 10 but a 10 but also Gem Mint 10’s don’t need to be perfect bc @CGCCards offers a pristine grade! Hope this helps someone someday lol!!!

@TAGgrading will be the BEST and #1 grading company long term because it’s backed by Imaging of the card and a matching report. You can’t change my mind. PSA is ass. Happy Sunday.

The PSA premium is so artificial and nonsensical that it is virtually a guarantee it disappears eventually. In the meantime I am scooping TAG, CGC, and BGS slabs like mad, far higher potential upside at these absurdly low relative valuations.

Bro. You can tell the surgeon is pissed. I know the order of putting on and removing sterile gloves. He can’t even remove that without having to redo the entire process. That’s why he just rips off all his scrubs and leaves the room to wash his hands again.
social media has truly rotted some of y’all’s brains because why are you throwing him off and playing around before a SURGERY???

A PSA 9 being 50$ less than raw is the dumbest thing I think I’ve ever seen! This market is simply stupid🤡🤣

Yep. Protected by a slab and authenticated as real, and certified as a gem mint for the price of raw. Cannot beat that.

You mean i can get a card that's: authenticated as real certified gem mint protected in a slab All for the price of a raw card? 🤔
Market price for raw $78? Gem Mint 10 for 72??? Obviously shipping and tax too so bout 90 but that’s still less than buying raw and grading at value tier! This is why some people hate on CGC but for me it’s why I love them!

Growing up if your parents made 100K combined you were fucking balling, now it’s borderline poverty… Why do we keep paying taxes and voting these same good fo nothing people into office if they’re taking away even the simplest things in life?

Shinji Kanda artwork, sick UPC packaged with an MAR Charizard, AND arguably just a baller card! Yah I could see this one performing really well long term! Cant believe I didn’t buy a 100 mews when they were around 5-10$! That’s when I was still in my I have the card era not I should get the card to have and then a couple to sell later on era haha!
This new was under 5$ for so long! This Oricorio will be there as well! Sometimes you can just buy 10 cheap promos and they will eventually be worth 100$ each! This is one in the future that you won’t be sorry for buying!
