While I appreciate you adding the card values, what I would really like to see is a PSA returns video where you compare the value after grading to the value of all of the raw cards. Yea your cards are worth $5k+ after grading, but what were they worth in near mint raw condition? Did grading your cards add more than $1,000 in value to them? In this video I would guess the answer is yes, but I would really like to see someone make this kind of comparison video!

Also in general, how much did the cards cost when he bought them, + the grading, and then we see the actual ROAS of this. Now we see 1000$ grading fee against the graded value which is a great ROAS, but a lot of those cards were probably on the minus side thanks to grading costing 20 already and then the unnamed price of the card when he bought it.

Yes grading them will make them worth more than it being raw
@JewJitSuSixty9 Жыл бұрын
I see what you mean but grading your cards adds so much more value than what it would cost raw. Even the ones that were only $40-$50 would only cost $5-$15 raw. I do like the idea but grading your cards will always add a significant amount more

$5,880 after spending $1,000 to grade = $4,880…. Now, the real question is, how much did you purchase the raw lot (pre graded) for? That would help get a better idea of how much “value” you have increased…(ROI)

One thing I dislike about this hobby is people making statements about what should and shouldn’t be graded. Not everyone has the money to buy and grade expensive cards and others, like yourself, collect one specific character. Grading is open to whoever and for the most part, whatever card you want. If you are looking for monetary benefits it will not work out. But if you want to grade it because you like the card. Then by all means grade and collect. It’s your money. Appreciate your content. Happy collecting

It is a valid worry, however, I highly doubt PSA would damage its brand and image by doing that.

However, I suggest having proof of the original card (vids, pics, etc.)

Being concerned about damage is a legitimate concern. I've received a PSA 10 card that was damaged after going through the slab process because of the way the machine vibrates that they use to seal the slab. Take pictures of your cards before sending them off for peace of mind. I highly doubt Jake sent in that Rayquaza with chipping at the top of the front of the card; it would be obvious to anyone collector that sends their cards in for grading.
