    It's also the lowest end hobby product and should cost less than $100 but it's preordering for around $300.

    Would love some help on this as well.

    Or even which service to use for grading. Would think I’ve got 2-300 1st edition cards that were never played and kept in binder or penny sleeves.

    What holo's do you have? If you've got a legit 1st edition charizard, Mint ones are getting 6 figures. If that's the case, get someone to come to you to do grading. No way I'd ever let a card worth that much leave my sight where someone can pull some shady shit.

    If you have anything of that level drive to Beckett in Dallas or PSA in California and deliver it yourself. Pay the couple hundred to get it graded/slabbed.

    I do have a Charizard somewhere in my moms attic. I had that one separate from all my other shit and haven’t dug it out. Doubts it’s a 1st.

    First editions are split between base, jungle and fossil. I’ve got most holos in hand with the exception of charizard, dragonite and raichu. Have dragonite and charizard somewhere. Granted not all are first editions and some are shadowless but they are all in pretty much new condition and I should have a full set of base first editions for each. At least jungle and fossil.

    I also have a Japanese pack and cards all first edition.

    I don’t know dick about them but I collected everything growing up. Never played with any of the cards.

    Had an offer accepted for what I thought was a steal of a deal.

    And then it was immediately cancelled. :(

    So I bought 2 of the 2020-21 Crown Royale NBA boxes, planning to open 1 and sell 1. My big auto in the first one was a Desmond Bane 05/12 :blech:.

    Buyer on 2nd box fell through and I couldn't resist so I ripped it. My big auto in this one....

    Only negative is the Herbert clear RR has some surface issues at the top next to the RR :\. Regardless I love the card and wouldn't have graded it even if clean. Selling it eventually may be a problem lol

    Damn nice pulls. I had my first chronicles box last week and man, there are so many different styles of cards it felt like opening a Collector's Edge pack, though obviously nicer.

    Won an ebay auction on Sunday for far less than comps so I was pretty excited. Seller sends a message: "Hey hold off on payment. This went for way too cheap so I'm going to cancel."

    What sucks is that he was able to just cancel without consequence because he didn't like the price it went for. Sorry bud, you put it in auction. That happens sometimes.

    I think you can leave a negative feedback in that situation. I know it doesn't help you but may make others be hesitant to buy from him

    That's all I'm really interested in. My brother told me I had to wait 7 days before the option became available on my "Purchase History" page, but I currently have another cancelled order (similar situation) on there from 4/26 and it won't let me leave a negative.

    I really don't want to call eBay and deal with that but this guy really should be held accountable. If you run an item in auction you're assuming the risk that it could sell for less than you want. Of course he had 40 feedback

    My current "Awaiting Payment" page has 10 separate items from 7-10 days ago that have gone unpaid. Never had this many non-payers at once before.

    It's neat that there are more people buying cards but it has also brought out a ton of shitheads.

    Just got my PSA sub grades. Overall very pleased. Some I thought would be gem came back 9 but one I thought would be 9 came back gem and nothing less than 9.

    I'm probably in the minority here but I hate looking at my grades online before having them in hand. I like the suspense of looking through them one at a time :idk:
