September 2024 PSA return with a unique twist

30/12/2024 | Categories: Grading

My most recent PSA return has been a rollercoaster of emotions—some highs, some lows, and one surprising gem! Here’s the breakdown: Shining Charizard – PSA 2 I was actually hoping for a PSA 1 on this one, but honestly, it’s hard to be disappointed when the card itself is such a masterpiece. No matter the […]

March PSA Return and Rocket Gang addition

26/06/2024 | Categories: Buys, Grading

I must say this return had me all slim shady snap back to reality. After a strong last return I felt like things could not go wrong. It sure could have been worse, but it also could have been better. Two out of five grades guessed correctly. Noctowl and Ace were on point, but Raichu, […]

PSA Submission – April 2024

17/04/2024 | Categories: Grading

Another month another submission. This one is an interesting mix. Main part is my HMS redemption auto /20 that arrived after 5 months. Going straight to dual grading. The Wemby insert and Southern Island Butterfree are just little additions preparing for potential trades. Expected grades are all 10s and the auto grade also a 10. […]

PSA Return from November Submission hits different

24/02/2024 | Categories: Grading

By far the most valuable submission, the November 2023 PSA, has come to an end and arrived at S.L.A.P./Manuel this week. Earlier this week I received the info about a value charge for one of my cards which came as sort of a surprise. Of course this is a positive message so I was eager […]

AOG Submission – February 2024 (returned)

15/02/2024 | Categories: Events, Grading

To be honest I was not a hundred percent certain whether I really wanted to submit this card. Until now I never really had any problems with packages going missing but this one would hurt me personally. Initially I wanted to submit the card to Gold Standard Grading because until now I was happy with […]

WhatNot taking over & PSA Submission – February 2024

15/02/2024 | Categories: Buys, Grading, Stories

With WhatNot slowly taking over the live shopping market here in Germany it’s time to have a look back at the first few shows. All in all you could say the current state is the place to be, fewer viewers, more chances. The bidding is apart from some special items still very reasonable and the […]

GSG December Return and more

29/01/2024 | Categories: Buys, Grading

My GSG submission came back with a little delay. Quite by surprise the LaMelo Ball card with the big dent on the front surface turned out to be a 9.5 which caught me a bit off guard but I’ll take a 9.5 any day. The timing for my other two cards couldn’t be any better […]

Just like last month there was another sale. This time 15% off during Black Week. Unlike the last two times where I only sent in cards for my Heung-Min Son collection this time I submitted more variety with two NFL cards and a NBA Flux Prizm. The LaMelo Ball one unfortunately has a bigger dent […]

GSG Submission – November 2023

31/10/2023 | Categories: Grading

Gold Standard Grading had a 10% discount this week so I decided to submit some cards that have been in my collection for a few weeks now. And personally it’s a one of a kind submission (yes, every submission is, don’t get me wrong). I have two copies of the red parallel #d/10 – let’s […]
