@@JoesCardStache Whatttt!? Photons are sick as hell Joe- everyone knows that. I saw from your PC you got ol' man taste though, so i understand. And i say that with the utmost respect Joe- I praise the Stache.
@myktybekSuperfractor-rb2wr Haha. Well I am an old man so that makes sense. I just don’t think photons are the coolest designs. I understand they are rare but I try not to collect certain types of cards just because Panini made them short prints. I have to like the design. Just my opinion though.
Fantastic giveaway! I bid on and won the Durinho auction and was delighted to find out I also won the giveaway!! Thank you for all you do, Joe, and big thanks to the Gobles, too!! 👊🏼
For me, it has a lot to do with the look of the slab. I want to display these cards and I don’t like how SGC or Beckett slabs look. I do like TAG slabs but they don’t resell
I got a few to send to psa to be graded. Its just a mission sending from the uk. Wonder if the costs are the same for you guys. Love the vids by the way 👍
Grade one card at a time for best results, l cannot state this enough. Graders do not enjoy grading bulk submissions of cheap or mediocre cards, it annoys them, they see the same crap over and over and over and over and again. If you send in an interesting card in great condition, it shows how much you as a collector cares, and shows you arent just trying to make a buck or two off redundantly graded cards. They will cook you on grades for that quick flip mentality. They are not stupid, and they do know how to grade very well, but they will never reward quick flippers with good grades in bulk submissions. And bulk is anything over one card in their eyes. Thats as real as it gets brother
Laugh all you please. I dont speak on any subject unless l have tangible experience, and a wealth of it. Anyone speaking without experience is a narcissistic retard. I have graded hundreds upon hundreds of coins. Anytime l have graded coins in bulk, and especially many of the same denomination, graders tend to average grades out. So l've cracked the same coins to experiment to see if grades go up by submitting one at a time, so there arent coins of the same type to compare and contrast to. And what do you know, the grades increased 92.6% percent of the time. And yes l keep diligent records of everything, and that number is accurate. So when l started grading cards a few years ago, l only submitted one at a time. I dont send in cards that l know wont grade well to begin with. This isnt a game of hoping and praying. I know how to grade well. I never recieve a grade lower than 9. And l never submit a card worth less than $500 dollars. I have watched thousands of submission videos on youtube. You bulk submitters of cheap cards cards never learn your lesson. Everytime you get a submission back from grading, youre always baffled and say the graders dont know what they are doing or are having a bad day. Hey dudes, l have something to tell you...the graders know exactly what they are doing and you jimmies cant figure out what your doing wrong. Get smarter, or quit grading, youre not good at it.
I recommend taking pictures of the cards before you send them to see if psa fucked the card up. I sent a poirier lightning strike that was perfect, came back an 8 with a mangled corner that wasn't mangled when it left my possession.
Damn that sucks dude. That’s a good idea about photographing the cards before you send them although I’ve heard that PSA won’t even take those photos as proof because they will just say the cards could have been damaged in transit.
@JoesCardStache yea you're pretty much screwed if they cause damage. I do it more for my peace of mind. Did I miss that or did the mouth breather at psa damage it cutting it out of the card saver type thing
This is why I think grading companies like BGS and TAG are better than PSA. They'll tell you why you got the grade you got. I know PSA sells for the most but for no reason, it's frustrating.
I agree that it is nice to know why you got the grade you got. I personally don’t really like BGS slabs and I plan on displaying most of these cards so I need to like how the slabs look. My issue with TAG is really just the resell value. I think they are too new of a company. So I still like PSA the best. Plus I’ve heard PSA is going to implement “grader’s notes” at some point in the future so hopefully that will tell us why we got the grade we got.
I’m super excited the Bj Penn, Luke Rockhold and the White Max Select graded high. I sent you those. I was hoping you would grade the cards I sent you! It’s really fun to see how they graded after keeping them so long. I sent them to the right home! I knew you worked at RVCA so I thought you would like the Penn card with Parillo. Congrats!!
Rick!! Sorry I keep forgetting you. I got quite a few packages from people who watch the channel around that time. I need to write down which cards people send me. I’m so happy with all those cards and how they graded! Thanks again man!
Thanks Joe for taking us with you on the reveal, love watching these vids, always anxious but excited. Funny you mention about Michael Bisping, I was always a fan, watched his entire career, won a championship, but I have no cards of his, strange, might rethink that. Did you watch his doco Bisping from 2021? Worth the watch 👍
Yeah. The edges right out of the pack are pretty bad on most round 1 cards. Its amazing the any of them can get a 9. You get that gold Rogan graded yet?
Howdy Joe, unreal GSP! Congratulations. Round 1 is so tough. Moment of Truth is a tough one as well, a lot of chipping and surface issues, definitely on brand for 2009-2012 releases. Main Event was the third set made, all of the base cards have that holofoil finish. A great set featuring the debut cards of many in the incoming WEC class (Faber, Cerrone, etc) -Cartel
I’m not done using TAG. I still really love their slabs. I think they just need to be around for a few more years so people will take them seriously. People need to have faith in the company they are grading with and PSA, BGS, and SGC have all been around for 20+ years. TAG needs to keep building a solid reputation and I think they will be one of the big grading companies down the road.
Great job Joe! I do like the return to white, it's synonymous with your videos. Love 21 Prizm, but yeah 21 Select may be my favourite as well. Those Tie-Dyes 😮 🌈
As good as Topps UFC products are I haven't really been that impressed so far, especially when you compare them to some of the Panini releases and designs. I think Panini UFC will definitely hold value moving forward.
Awesome video Joe! These Goble boxes were one heck of a ride! 🎢 Definitely a little jelly of the Red Flux Olives 😅 Great idea about giving away the rest to one of the buyers! I will be bidding for that Conor for sure! Trying to do that set, all serial numbered. I hadn’t figured out what I was going to do with the rest of the cards, but I just decided I will be making 3 juiced packs for 3 lucky people that comment! My video is taking forever to upload 😫 but should be up soon!
Great video, this shooting methoud will work on Chromium cards ? Sometime they are looks like silver mirrow, beautiful cards but hard to make a good photo for showing.
