First PSA Pokémon Unboxing. HOLY $##T

in #pokemon3 years ago

So I finally got my PSA cards back from grading. The results are pretty sweet. Roughly 80 cards, or four small boxes worth.

If you are unfamiliar with Pokemon grading, it's the process of sending in ungraded (AKA raw) cards to a professional grading company that is recognized. PSA or Professional Sports Authenticator is the biggest in the collectable card grading field - grading every type of card. PSA is the most coveted, as cards graded by this firm are more expensive as their waitlist is so long. These cards took roughly 2 years to get back.

Grading cards can significantly raise the value on raw cards. Scale goes from 1 to 10, with prices significantly increasing with each grade. Grading helps preserve cards for the future in their sound-enclosed container and also acts as a way to authenticate the cards as real, and not duplicates or fakes.

Grading is becoming more and more popular, with more grading companies like CGC springing up. But PSA is still number 1.

So if you have some old cards in great condition, send them in and watch their value potentially skyrocket!

I guess I'm supposed to say this or something (common sense):
NOTHING I say is financial advice. I am not qualified in anything. I just make videos n stuff when I'm slightly tipsy/bored about stuff I like. Do your own research frens.
