Fuck. I should've just said no to that paypal transaction, I bet he's gonna try push on me all his shitty cards.
Yesterday he said he's gonna ship tomorrow, maybe I should reply tomorrow morning to let the atmosphere chill a little bit, because I got a bad feeling right now.

Sheeeit I knew it, I'm fuming mad at my inability to discern scams from legit trades right now.

He MUST send the cards I bought through eBay and if he doesn't I'm gonna open a case for refund, I spend a lot on eBay and always win when I ask refunds. Shame for the bonus card, thank goodness it wasn't an expensive one.

I'll try to come up with some lie to refuse.

Sure. The problem is that (for example) CGC 9s and 9.5s will frequently cross grade to PSA 10s, but don't sell for as much as PSA 10s, because people just want 10s. Pretty true for BGS too I think.

As for the hundreds of other random grading companies that appeared in the last year, idk

grading is stupid expensive so it's only worth it if you are extremely dedicated to collecting/scalping or if you think you might have a card worth a large amount of money
pic related is what you can expect to spend at psa the most """"trusted"""" grading """"service"""
it's basically robbery
here are some recent sales on ebay for unlimited holo venusaur
a 10 goes for $1500-$1900 but anything less than that the price decreases dramatically

those are nice cards but the edges mean they aren't 10s though
i have seen people on youtube send in a card fresh out of a pack and still not get a 10
it's pretty rare to actually have a 10
here are their rating standards

fraying on the border takes it down to at most an 8

no shit. I meant that people mostly just want the 10 on the label, they don't actually care that much about the card inside. Take the same card put it in a CGC 9 slab or a PSA 10 slab. They want the 10. Why does it matter? It's the same card???

The point is if you're going to grade you want to grade at PSA to maximize your value. There is nothing to be gained by grading with someone else. You just have to wait until they open up bulk grading again.
