The Bible says that no one is a good person. We have all broken God's law the 10 commandments, we have all committed, lies, adultery, idolatry, and blasphemy. We deserve hell, but because of what Jesus did on the cross we can be forgiven. So if you Repent of your sins, change your wicked ways, and put your faith in Christ you will be written in the book of life. 👌 🙏Repentance is reviewing one's actions and feeling contrition or regret for past wrongs, which is accompanied by commitment to and actual actions that show and prove a change for the better.

They have a promo now where they will grade your first card for free you pay the $14 shipping so it’s just $14 to try AGS out and send in your first card. Also the AGS app shows the progress of what’s going on with your card, when it’s been graded, slabbed and shipped. Very cool.

Nice video! I'm new to DBS TCG and pulled my first SCR on my first booster box! Unfortunately, on the same day, the card and all my other cards started to warp/bend/curl, they had a curve already, but it grew a little bit. The sides of the cards moved backwards. Reddit says this is normal, and it happens mainly due to humidity. Have you happened to encounter this issue before? When it comes to PSA grading, do they consider warps and curls made from natural conditions when it comes to grading? What is your experience with that? Have you sent cards with minimal curling and still got a 10? I've read that PSA flattens your card when putting it in a slab, and they don't take under grading this type of characteristic. Please let me know. I am excited to send mine for grading. (I got the SS4 Vegeta, Peak of Primitive Power SCR) Also, how does AGS deals with this?

Psa has gotten too big hiring so many employees to “meet demand”, yet that just means there’s probably so many people that have no idea what they’re doing. That is why I think beckett might be more accurate on grading. I think they only had 13 graders.. but maybe hired s few more since I last read about them. Smaller grading teams in a company means more consistency, and not a million graders hired who might not even know what they’re doing & just want a job

The umbreon v is pretty awesome, not sure how to feel about ags. I don’t mind automatic grading, but a human element needs to also look the card over as well and compare between the 2 grades. The software was designed by people, and can still make mistakes. Personal opinion, both human and machine should work together.
@DrApplesauceTwo

Hey, I understand where you're coming from, but I think it's important to remember that computerized grading should complement, not replace, human grading. That being said, have you heard of AGS Card Grading? They actually use cutting-edge technology to enhance their grading process, which is really impressive. AGS Card Grading uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to ensure that the grading process is precise and consistent. This technology allows them to identify even the slightest imperfections on a card and assign a grade accordingly. They also have a team of experts who examine each card, so you're getting the best of both worlds. Plus, they provide a digital grading report for every card they grade, which includes high-resolution images of the front and back of the card, as well as the grade and any notable comments. This report can be accessed online, which makes it easy for collectors to view and share their graded cards with others. Overall, I think AGS Card Grading is a great example of how technology can enhance the grading process, while still valuing the importance of human expertise. If you want to try them out you can use this link robograding.com/referral/JDAPY'

I'm not familiar with AGS but I know CGC 10s do not come as easily as those did. Even if you've carefully pre-graded your cards, only a very small percentage (>5%) will come back as 10s of any kind. It seems like AGS is closer to PSA in its grading.

PSA has a very bad rep right now but people continue because of the name and their hopes of a 10. I feel like their $18 per card thing is because of the market they’re seeing with their dip in submissions and the bad rep they know they’re getting. Then add the FBI investigation into the equation and how people are putting lawsuits together from what I’ve heard towards their business ethics and policies.

CGC and BGS sub grades are amazing and handy. I think personally any BGS 9.5 should have an equivalent value of a PSA 10 so sad to see them underrated on the market but on the other hand it's gains for anyone searching for a mint card without paying the big PSA price tag

I agree about the PSA bad quality control, but i hate the idea of Robot grading. Its just my opinion, but its not fun for me to submit 50 "modern" cards to a company and maybe get one 10 out of all them. Plus, AGS doesnt have the merit to give you that value-added either yet if ever.

@@DrApplesauceTwo that goes back to my point its very rare to get a 10 when a computer is grading it. It's not fun to me if I get one 10 of of 50. There just needs to be better quality control. Its like going to a baseball game and no longer having an umpire, just a computer. Takes the fun away.

I do think there was a pretty noticeable decline in consistency and accuracy for a while there. I have watched a good number of submission videos recently and things seem to be mostly back on track. My suspicion is that when they were swamped with a massive backlog, they were just pushing cards through the process as quickly as they could to try and get their heads back above water. Unfortunately, this led to a large amount of cards being graded too poorly or too highly during that time. It seems like most of the videos I have seen where people's cards are poorly graded were submissions that took months, if not more than a year, to return. These were often sent out just prior to the price hikes/shutdowns, or in some cases, during them. I'm not trying to make any excuse for poor quality on their end, but I don't think it is necessarily an ongoing, systemic issue.

They graded The fake first edition stamps just like PSA and Beckett and CGC did as well. Every grading company got duped by that. However, AGS was the only one to come out and admit it and offer solutions to help people that were screwed over by the situation, and then followed up with marketing strategies showing how they were going to make sure that never happens in the future
