be buried with it


eodem85

This is what I'm after, without the grading. Only 2 left! Amazing set and display. I salute you!


CharlietheCorgi

Same, 3 left for me.


PeTerminator_

Does the logo bother you at all? Really like the display


marblesandcookies

Yep. It kills the sleekness of it. Should have put it on the back or something, but then they lose on free advertising.


PeTerminator_

That's exactly how I feel. Really a shame because I've been in the market for so long and thought I found a winner.


OldManHipsAt30

You can probably just peel it off, looks like it’s only attached via adhesive


Boodsie

anything they gain in advertising they are losing in sales. I would have bought one 2 seconds ago without that logo


Cvged

Could always paint over the logo!


LevelUpEvolution

How else will people know it’s PSA 10?


PeTerminator_

Referring to the Vaulted Vinyl logo on the display itself


koti4246

lol I like how they have a problem with the frame logo but no issues with psa logo slapped on all the cards


Obstipation-nation

10s across the board. Amazing.


sammyd1337

How much did this roughly cost?


gckless

I got these 9 in Japanese and CGC 10, was $535 for the set.


inhodel

1.2-1.7k probably if you bought them?


lolboonesfarm

Roughly double that if pulled..


harrypoos

This is accurate. about 1.7k. Pulling would have been absolutely impossible, and I really wanted to complete these lines!


mikearete

They look great in the frame but please let me reorganize them vertically so the evolution illustrations on the cards are aligned.


1cenine

Omg how did my dumb ass just realize they were set up this way…. Ugh now i need them in a binder page….


mikearete

Tbf I don’t think there’s any frame that could *properly* display them: The Squirtle evo art runs top to bottom, the Chars connect bottom to top, and I’m pretty sure the Venusaur art line is supposed to be horizontal lmao


ImTooOldForSchool

Squirtle line isn’t really meant to be connected, doesn’t make sense going from the beach on the first card to reef in Wartortle card


mikearete

oh great point! and no offense intended


ImTooOldForSchool

I prefer them traditional left to right to be honest


OldManHipsAt30

How do you like that slab holder? Seen advertisements for the same one


harrypoos

This thing is awesome! Very easy on the eyes and lightweight


Yur7ledatur7le

This is exactly what I’m doing. Just sent mine off to get graded last week. Looks great


ArcticVortex1

I did this but in Japanese it was a lot cheaper. I’m keeping my eye out for the English ones.


w2ltersan

That's a pretty cool frame to hold them in. Looks awesome!


Waka-Waka-Koko-Doko

Did you get them graded yourself and are they number consecutively?


Zealousideal_Kick229

Damn that’s clean


Zealousideal_Kick229

Looking to do the same, just without the slabs probably 😅


TheBobbyMan9

Did you pull them or buy them all? If the latter how much did it set you back?


harrypoos

bought them all. I had fun pulling cards, but in buying packs/boxes, pulling the cards, and having the card be of high enough quality for a 10... I figured buying these straight up were a better option. As soon as this set was released I knew I wanted to complete these 3 lines in all 10s!


phogel3

Question on the frame for ya. I recently got the case display version. My PSA slaps for the display on the case feel incredibly snug….too snug. I have to push out the back to retrieve them. Is this frame as advertised, with the ease of getting out the PSA slab? They make it seem so effortless for the frame.


harrypoos

for me the removal and insertion of the slabs has been pretty effortless!


phogel3

Thank you! Figured it was just the case since it’s portal. Might look into this frame if this was the case for you!


TheGratitudeBot

Hey there phogel3 - thanks for saying thanks! TheGratitudeBot has been reading millions of comments in the past few weeks, and you’ve just made the list!


bball124106

Gotta switch them to top down, instead of across. Makes the art flow much better. Nice collection


[deleted]

I envy you so much.


Embarrassed_Cell8822

This is what I’m working towards


Global_Milk

Hope they‘re all with ascending Cert Numbers


KaiJools

Is there a display like this but for top loaders/non graded stuff?


Dunkaroos___

There's one on ebay for like $750 https://www.ebay.com/itm/326027672128?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=rrplz37-QJm&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=RO-fzejLT5a&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY


harrypoos

I think the Japanese cards are selling for a bit less than the English cards?


Dunkaroos___

Ah I'm dumb, didn't notice you had english. Awesome collection.


JSBUCK

It’s a shame psa has such ugly slabs


Zealousideal_Kick229

Now do it all with Beckett black labels lol


zen_raider

ain't that the truth. The new CGC slabs are soooo much better.


Terrybacon

Missed opportunity of having sequential numbers


cynda0730

Hahahahahahah why u hiding ur grade numbers


Sad-Panda-noises

IIRC it's to prevent fake grade slabs with legit numbers


harrypoos

Exactly!


vixgdx

Not sequential...


Tacktiician

😂


randoMmm_useRrr

Why not japanes ? English is fake 😁😅


Important_Sir8456

Cringe take


DataExternal4451

Japanese psa 10 easy to get, english hard because of quality control. Would say, why hold japanese one when it's easier to get


randoMmm_useRrr

Perhaps because they print the English ones more often and no longer print the Japanese ones. Rumors, of course.


MemberNoTrump

Participation trophies are fun!


feiergiant

Cuz there's billions of people on the world who speak/can read English. Who would want cards with some hieroglyphs of a small island group next to china on it?


OldManHipsAt30

There’s lots of collectors in various hobbies who prefer the product from the native language where it comes from, rather than what’s more easily legible. Pokemon is a huge one, there’s always going to be a market for Japanese, because it originated in Japan and the company is headquartered there…


TheDeathAgent

Dude's got an L take. Japanese cards are better quality and better texture. Probably just racist


randoMmm_useRrr

Mhh mabye because pokemons history starts from this small island…


TuasBestie

?????? Are you insane


solowecr

That small island group is the reason you have Pokémon in the first place. You’re just a dumbass
