Grading Your Yugioh Cards - PSA, BGS or CGC? 

@brendenconner9686 phantom wolf zero 15:22

PSA does have a guarantee on its slabs, but they've also graded a lot more fakes than BGS/CGC and it isn't by any means always straightforward or quick to get compensation. Still worth mentioning though, I forgot to put it in here

@@Schloast thanks for the content. I Always enjoy your shared knowledge :)

Haha good timing then I guess! I haven't really noticed any issues with my labels being tilted honestly, they're extremely secure in that slot in the case so there's no way for the label to move at all. Even when you crack a CGC slab the label is so snug in there that it's hard to get it out lol. Turnaround times are generally extremely good, the longest I've had was like 45 days for a recent bulk sub and that one had a bunch of errors in it so it's understandable that it took a bit longer

​@@Schloast Ah sorry I meant the graphic/text on the label being slanted like this www.pojo.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/dark-raich-test-print.jpg But from what I've seen I think they've fixed these issues or at least are way less frequent so it's promising!

@@SparklingHarmony oh I see! I didn't even realise that was a thing lol. They've definitely improved their labels a lot in general so I guess they've hopefully fixed that along the way too

Right now I'd probably say CGC for those purposes. They have the safest handling of the cards, the fastest turnaround times and the clearest slabs for display. The value isn't as high as PSA but if you're not selling them then that shouldn't matter I guess

When the CGC label launched it looked straight up bootleg, they have improved it a lot though. I still don't like it as much as either of the others (especially BGS) but it's passable at this point

I kinda like how simple they keep the labels since it keeps the focus on the (hopefully) awesome card art

@@4everflow idk but that grammar is really a psa10 lol.

Sure, there's no reason not to grade the actual old school Korean stuff. 99% of Korean cards you see are just modern reprints though and I wouldn't bother with those personally
