UK vs USA Has Ace Grading overtaken CGC and add more value? 

What are your thoughts on Uk grading companies will they compete with the USA giants soon? Join the giveaway here whatnot.com/invite/mattculli

I love the Ace slabs, they are so nice (especially with the ace labels). I hope they do become major competition for the US giants. I actually really like the colour match labels as well, wondering why you've said you wouldn't use those? I've only just started to have my cards graded with Ace and I got my first batch back recently. Got a few 10s so I was pretty happy with that! I'm torn about what to do with my higher value cards though, since PSA still seems to be the best for adding value a lot of the time, but I personally hate the look of their slabs/labels and I've had slabs from some of the other places like CGC and Beckett and there was nothing special about those either, IMO.

I Think Ace are moving closer and will compete in usa and overtake in uk.The ace slabs are better made and look great.Aldo they are priced fairly and are returned in good time.The pikachu is the one i like most from your slabs.

I like the ace labels and the plastic they use feels nice and weighty which I like. Hope the values start reflecting the decent slab quality

CGC has been grading for way over a decade with comics. I believe with their mergers, changing the label, adding a pristine 10, and partnering with many corporations including PWCC, they have solidified themselves as top 3 with Beckett and PSA being #1. Ace is 5th right now, based on many vendors I've talked to at conventions. Ace's label is okay.

I still believe ACE is only useful for new cards, not for value. CGC is still more valuable for vintage. And some vintage are worth similar same in any grading company if it’s a low grade or a sub-par card.

ACE don’t even have to be the best in the world for me. As long as they become recognised world wide that will be good. At the moment I think ace is the best in the UK. Hopefully they will gain recognition in the USA over the next few years.

My favourite is the Pikachu, love Pika and the fact it’s got memories attached to it for you. On the giveaway, love the Mew EX. Good luck everyone. 🤓👍🏻

ACE is my go-to. from a small sample (10 cards to each).... ACE was spot on with my guesses on grades ... compared with PSA & CGC which got me wild differences which cause me concern on their quality control. Also PSA slabs are the worst on the market!

Love simplified Chinese, such good grades and great art !

Love your vids matt but sorry to say ace wont ever come anywhere near cgc tbh.no disrespect but imo the slabs look horrible.

I only buy Ace slabs of cards I want to keep. Not interested in Psa as they r just money grabbers imo

The mew is my fav card! But will deffo be over to watch the show! Keep up the good work mr culli.

For me, Ace is number 1 grading card company The slabs are so good

love the mew card 151 is easily one of my favourite sets, Pokémon have released IMO

Love these vids brother, keep it up!

Defo the sunset mew card has to be the best card visually :)

The Mew is very cute. I love the colour matched labels too!

Problem with ACE and values are the difference in label prices and such, sold data is a pain in the ass because of it

Great video mate! Love that Mew promo

Favourite is the Pikachu, like that it has a story haha, and also I like that the card looks less 'fancy' if that makes sense

My favourite is the Ninetales from the Japanese version of Twilight Masquerade (I'm not really up on the names of the Japanese sets) But I ADORE the artwork on the Ninetales. If I was made of money, I'd fill a binder with dozens of just that card, to be honest Lol

Ooh interesting numbers there. CGC has a much bigger market in America I believe rather than over here. That Mew is still a stunner to me so has to be my fave 👌

I love the special labels on ACE but it will take a while for them to catch up to the big 3, love Mew Ex

I think Ace could rival CGC some day. I do prefer the look of the slabs.

Feraligatr is definitely my favourite card! Loved the ACE label on this one too! May have to look to buy that one in your stream 👀

I love the Mew because the art looks amazing

My Fave has to be the Faraligator simply for the ace label 👌🏼

I like the different styles of label designs, and the choice of grading companies, i'm not too fussed about value because to me it's more about that wow factor.

Hate the cases for sure. PSA only one worth going through… then probably BGS, CGC or maybe even those crazy looking TAG cards. Easily PSA over anywhere else though

My local card shop (The G-zone in Worthing town centre) uses a small grading company called tree frog, have you ever heard of it?

My little one said the Fat Pikachu. He has just started out and is loving the original style of Pikachu.

I would love to grade with ACE, but the shipping fee is pretty high. And the costs outweigh the profit if I don't get a 10 with ACE after shipping to them from here. Since CGC is just one city away from me, it's much more affordable. CGC should have kept the sub-grading after they revamped their label design. Would love to see you compare ACE 10 vs CGC Pristine 10. The chatter I have been hearing is that CGC Pristine 10 is valued higher than a PSA 10, but of course, PSA dominance is undeniable in this hobby.

Thank you Pika I really like and want to have

Don’t own a single ace slab personally but maybe I’ll change that soon

I like Ace, it’s unique but the art labels hit and miss but art is subjective so you always run the risk… Slabs n logo is brilliant one of the best however standard label just lacks something… And then when you do get a 10 it just doesn’t have that special feel that CGC, Beckett n PSA have. Saying all that I do like Ace allot though :)

Ace is the new kid on the block, but really like they way they match their headers to the card thats in the slab. Give it a few more months, and I reckon all the other graders will match as well 😊

The Dragonite EX is lovely

The mew is my favourite card as I am a Mewtwo/mew collector 🔥👌🏻!!

Ace slabs look so good, they feel like they are made to showcase a card rather than to showcase value

I think the zard tag team card is my favourite!

I like colour match for my personal cards if I’m selling just normal 😁

I collect Pokemon and Magic the Gathering. Some thoughts: For Pokemon, I'm just a collector. I'll get Ace grading on raw cards in my collection that are worth it. I'm not interested in sending it overseas to get it graded, or paying a middle man to take care of it for me. I'll also buy Ace graded slabs to fill gaps and I prefer those over raws. I'll happily pay £15 extra for an ace label slab to save on the hassle of doing it myself, especially if it's a 9 or 10. For MTG it's different. I play heavily and like to bling out my decks, so I don't get most of my cards graded. If I'm slabbing a card for my own collection, I'll get Ace. But if it's for resale, it's PSA or nothing, and I go through a middleman due to the low quantity.

Grade with ace for collection. When you want to sell crack open the 10s and send them to psa

Hey Matt - can't wait for your stream tonight (huge fan!). Pikachu Ace 10 from the 2023 collection is my favourite :D

i love the mew card

What slab case do you use to store them in?

The Ace slabs definitely look great for display

I like the Ace grading labels but I think it would be nice to have the sub grades on the label (maybe even the reverse). Though I get the revenue stream from selling that for £2 a card so can't fault them for that.

my favourite is the Japanese typhlosion holo in a mint 9, just such a nice card

Hmm what’s my favourite? Feraligatr 😂😂 even if he’s a cheap one. Ace has grown on me over the years but it’s still not hitting the big boys imo.

I'm amassing a pile to go off to Ace at some point. Dragonite GX looking very nice of the ones you got back!

never heard of ace grading until today, doesn't look all that great I'll stick to PSA/BGS/CGC

nice video are you using the eBay app?

I would say ace is still more for protection than sale

Sent here from Whatnot 😂 To be honest I like Ace labels but CGC changing theres is sleek! Im going with CGC.

i used ace so many times love there lables there cards they have always been good no issuies from me 100-100 stars for ace ive not sent the cards off to usa graders yet love all the japanse cards

Psa slabs are flimsy and the card's rattle Whare with ace the slabs are thick and the card's are sleeved up for more protection

ace has been my favr grading company since i saw there you tube about it the cards come back good the lables are brill and the company is so good

Keep up the good content 🫶🏻

Mew card was a favourite

Sorry to say but no, love the ACE colourful labels but it will not overtake CGC.

Tbh, this isn’t a good way to compare cgc vs Ace. Ace is mainly European buyers and CGC is for the states. PSA is the only company that truly transcends both continents. You should have set your ebay to worldwide or used apps like TCG Fish or Alt. That’s how I usually get true values of cards

Mew promo is beautiful 😍

Nobody wants either. But ace will have a higher chance at being higher in the UK and cgc will always be higher in america. Simple. Fact is, use either, stay in the hobby 10/15 years and you will regret when you have lost so much value. Also grading is more established in America. Just because there's no cgc 9 just means Americans know not to grade bad cards at a bad company. Where as in the UK people are not understanding it's a waste of time grading some of these cards at ace

Mew always win in my books!!

Skilly21 let’s gooo🔥

I like ace

Well…

The mewwww

Ace tops CGC 🔥

The title of this video makes me laugh. Cheeky humor dude! Ace grading was a nice idea during the pandemic. I personally will never ever send my cards to ace or buy a card wich is grade by ace. The slabs look horrible. I'm sorry for your your friends. Succes with the promotion.

Love me charizard 🎉

Charmander is my fav

❤️❤️

zard!!!

Nice video🎉

Pika 🙌✅

Yoooo 🎉
