You came out a winner PK. Glad there was a lot of 10 for you there. Goes to show that CGC early grading was too harsh and they burned a lot of the early adopters with 8.5 grades.

I love the look of CGC’s crystal clear cases so much more than PSA’s (imo cheap) frosted plastic, but man they give some whack grades 😂

So does this just tell us psa hands out high grades?

always like seeing people subbing cards to see differences in grading companies

So basically I learned that psa doesn’t grade very harsh in comparison to others , meaning psa value should be worth less imo

It's more criminal PSA hands out 10's on cards that shouldn't be 10's

Crossover all you want, but we know the truth in that PSA will hand out 10s on 8-9s all day. Whatever makes you feel better.

That is incredible man!! Thanks for sharing!! I love watching cards get crossed over to see what happens!! I’m thinking about all the CGC cards I have graded, and sold at a discount, wondering the whole time what could have been at PSA!!

I’m sending my special delivery bidoof to cgc, I prefer their blue labels. Don’t care for psa labels at all.

Lol, this video further proves CGC is the better grader... if you just want the grade for value sure go PSA. but if you want a true grade go CGC

I like cgc and bgs strictly for the grading tier lists on the bottom of the sticker. Psa I get has the rep but I don’t like how the 10s I have from them look way worse than the 9s and 9.5s from my cgc and bgs. I don’t mind either since I’m not selling them. If I were then I would go with psa or stay at bgs 9.5s and 10s

Your return was insane, WOW! Mostly bumps up. Mustve been when those CGC slabs were graded harsher. Congrats on the killer return!

01:53 "The premium that a PSA Slab gets"? I think PSA has some of the worst slabs ever. Super cheap plastic, card is not sleeved within the plastic and no sunprotection at all. I never grade my personal collection with PSA. They are just still alive because they were one of the first and could build up a reputation.

1 reason I only do cgc is because they grade harsher. I rather have a true grading then inflated grading for "investment". The other is their slabs are by far the best looking

Seems this probably went as expected. Most stayed the same or increased with the ones you expected to increase doing so. Glad to see you didn’t get rekt like Dan

Awesome return PK! Congrats on the rev holo raichu too!! Very worth cracking

Nice regrades! We can only imagine how much money was wasted on cards that are just going to end up regraded.

PSA is extremely inconsistent. Going forward CGC is the standard IMO, they are the most consistent and realistic. Unfortunately folks prefer PSA because of the easy grades.

damn PSA gives out high grades like it's fuckin nothing lmaooo what a joke

Awesome sub bro! You told em this whole time! Glad to see it! 👍🏻

Even if you got the same grades they would be worth more in PSA slabs so I think it was a good move. You should make a video on how to safely remove cards from cgc slabs!

man, i love that you saved the label so we could see the regrade and you know, really be a part of it. I'm baffled that PSA is so soft graders and still has that premium haha, I REALLY HATE graded cards so much !!! awesome video!

PSA is too old school with their grading. It’s crazy how much they will increase grades. CGC slabs and AGS slabs are probably more accurate

I’m cracking my own cgc slabs and regrading many of them for higher grades. They simply over graded for way too long which is a shame, but they are actually giving vintage 9.5’s and 10’a now. I recently got 2 early ex era EX’s and 1 early EX era reverse in a CGC pristine 10.

Man, you did great with those resubmits!

Looks like PSA just has lower standards

Thanks for this video. Picked up a Poncho Pikachu for a steal in a CGC 9.5 that looks perfect to me. Gonna resubmit to PSA and see if I can get that 10!

Damn nice sub seems like you did very well

Man the crossover seems so inconsistent, dont know what to think

That's really luck! It will be nice if you could have another video about those cards went from 9 to 10 so we could know what kind cards shall be regarded!

Amazing return! Congrats 🎉

Lmao at that closing statement

such good data, thanks!

#CGC 4 life. Especially after the recent changes

I say good call! Even at .5 higher the price difference for CGC to psa is crazy. And that’s only getting worse with psa pricing getting lower and lower. Maybe one day CGC will shine, (I think it already will take over BGS) but for now PSA is king and a lot of yours saw upgrades!

This gives me hope. Cracked a nice CGC 8.5 base set Charizard and sent it to PSA awhile ago. It should be back soon..currently step 6. I’m hoping for a bump to 9. Glad you made out!

Huge win for the Skyridge slabs. Awesome vid. Congrats on the grades, PK!

Big win for you buddy, first time watching one of your videos. Wanted to see the differences of how grading works and you were able to show it. Not only does PSA get a higher premium on their sales you got some sick bangers from those skyridge 10's good stuff man.

why the hate for cgc, because they grade harder than psa? also how dumb is that that people vaalue psa more than cgc when its known you can regrade for better at psa consistently

Thanks for confirming what I suspected. About to be cracking a lot of CGC slabs to send to PSA… the 8.5->10 crossovers are insane but unfortunately believable

Well worth it, only a few lower grades. You definitely came out ahead. PSA prices are getting lower and lower and the turnaround times are way better, no reason to look anywhere else.

The last sentence got me to subscribe

Great vid, man!! Couple of surprises but fantastic crossover!

I think we just learned that PSA hands out easy grades lol

Massive I told you so. Congrats PK. Awesome crossover. That Raichu!

Your "f*** you CGC video" was spot on. They were grading like shyt during that time. I had a massive sub with the same gating/inconsistency/laziness (whatever you want to call it). Never using them again because of it.

Insane, congrats on the W's and thanks for sharing. Other people who do this could learn a thing or 2 in showmanship from this video.

i feel exact same way about cgc always under grading my cards

Gotta love how psa grades super easy and has highest value

Awesome video man

Just means psa is easier grading, so technically cgc 9s should be the price of psa 10 but people are people...

Hi. What do you think about this: I buy a 9,5 BGS gold star Mew with (9.5 corners 9,5 edges 9,5 surface 9 centering) and I send it to regrade in either CGC or PSA in a hunt for CGC pristine or PSA10. The card is in so good condition that I can't find any flaws in it. Which one should I pick CGC or PSA? Or is this whole plan doomed to fail in your opinion? Thanks for your time.

Do you generally try to buy cards with the intention of doing this? That would also make a difference.

Definitely GREAT CROSS GRADING! Congrats PK!

I had major issues with my last CGC order. Some cards that I knew were slightly off center scored higher on sub grades that I thought were for sure 10s. I am cracking them as well to send away to PSA.

Very good!

Psa grades easier than most grading companies. Not because you feel as if a CGC 9 deserves to be a PSA 10 and you cross it over and it does get the Psa 10 doesn’t mean cgc grades your card incorrectly. Psa gives our 10s like their is no tomorrow, even if many Psa 10s don’t deserve the grade la they get. I use cgc for my personal collection because I feel proud when my 10s are actually worth being a 10. I use Psa to make money because they command a premium and people will happily gobble them up. It’s just the hustle but at the same time it’s sad when you think about it, most persons don’t really cares about the condition of the card, just the number plastered on it

Great video. These kinds of real world comparisons just confirm my suspicions, you are better off going with PSA for grading Pokemon cards, always, always.

This makes me really wanna crack a ton of my CGC slabs and resubmit to PSA now. So many 8.5s/9s that should have been graded higher!

Just sent in a bunch of cards to cgc before the psa price drop. Hopefully they still come back with good grades. I graded with cgc since its mostly for my personal collection and not resell

Damn looks like you did well but CGC is legit. Not passing out 10s like PSA

Nice to know you're a winner winner chicken dinner with CGC for great deals on Psa 10's

A reverse Rattle... crack the card... send it back to grading.

The more i see about these regrading cards, the more i conclude that there's a lot of inconsistency and a 10/10 doesn't mean really anything, it just states "this is not a played card".

I need a little guidance. I pulled a base set 2 charizard from fresh pack 2 nights ago. It has 2 tinnnnyyyy white dots on back. I'm wanting to get opinion on what you think it would score. I also want to know if I should send to PSA or Beckett. If you would help me out that would be great.

CGC has a harder grading system

Oh man what a result, great work pk!

I have a 7.5 CGC Lugia EX from Unseen Forces that I consider sending to PSA - What would you have done?

100% worth it. This should prove to you that PSA is too lax on cards. This makes me more bullish on CGC slabs TBH.

This says that PSA is a people pleaser. I don’t trust PSA. They hand out 10’s like candy and that’s very sketchy. I’ll take my money to CGC as they’ve been the professional standard grading company for years before PSA and most of these other competitors were even thought of. They are fair and don’t just try to please people on their submissions. Do they make mistakes here and there sure but they’re consistent don’t cheat the market. PSA has single handedly destroyed the Pokémon trading card market by their own hand. Plus their slabs are plain and mediocre at best to me. CGC is superior in my eyes.

Just got back from psa a couple cgc 9s I cracked. One got a 7 and one got a 8. Both had 9+ subgrades. Thinking of resubbing

great vid, now I have someone to back up my GMA argument

F U CGC lol nice regrades bro🔥

I've literally seen the opposite happen to people so I'm not sold on PSA.

Makes you wonder that grading is bullshit. Just keep Re-submitting till you get what you want lol

Winner winner chicken dinner. I got wrecked with my crossover attempt. All my grades from CGC to PSA got downgraded.

Currently sent 3 moonbreon to CGC and got back a 9, and two very strong 9.5’s (9.5,9.5,10,10) and def thinking to get them cross graded but i don’t want psa to screw me over with non 10’s on em 😂

not worth it, cgc is better XD

Officially Unduped

Is it better to crack and resubmit or use psa’s cross grading process?

I’m thinking of sending my CGC 9.5 poncho chu to psa

Psa is trash. The money made them weak. Slabs are weak grading inconsistent. People kust give them higher standard so they are worth more. Psa sold out

I know many CGC 9s are PSA 10. Was surprised to see the downgrades from CGC to PSA. Maybe you dinged a few cards getting them out of their slabs?

Some of the cheaper cards aren't worth crossing over imo, but congrats, nice return

You know I watch all your videos and respectfully disagree with you a lot since I'm a big Metazoo fan but one thing we have common ground on is the "Fuck you CGC". PSA is about to wipe them off the map now that bulk tier has opened back up and turnaround times are pretty good. I'm sure there will be those people who want to continue to complain that PSA just hands out 10's when they really have no clue what their talking about.

Really great cross over your eyes didn’t steer you wrong

Dude you have knack for this, you could make some serious income "arbitraging"

Killed it 🔥

Outro on point👌

This is so stupid. If a card is a 8 for example because of all the stuff that is wrong whith it like corners etc. How can it be a 10?! Grading is a s am end of story

Send them to fcg see what they give you with subgrades compared to the 10s ,9 ,8 that psa gave you they won’t uncharge you anything either

Firstttt

8.5 to a 10 is an absolute joke.

Let’s gooo 💪💪💪

So i did the same thing but my dumbass left them all in the Graded slabs. That was a huge mistake. Psa docked me on 19 of my 22 submissions. They were mostly GMA. I was young and dumb when i graded through gma but it was a lot of 10s that went to 8s and a couple 7+ and a 5 not sure how a 5 is even possible from a 10. Oh yeah PSA clearly damaged the card when breaking the slab but i can't prove it, through photographic evidence.

Bro got all these hater jelly 😅

just sent my first submission to them so hopefully i dont get screwed, my special delivery charizard was fucking minty.

To all those crying saying CGC just grades more honestly, go look at all the youtubers who have trouble with them. Shiny vert sent up cards he cut himself as a test and CGC graded it as a miscut 🤡 clown company

looks like i know how to make a 9.5 a 10 lol

Cross back to cgc so you can finish your 8.5 sets
