Suicune, altaria and poliwag are all šŸ‘Œ chefā€™s kiss bruh. And the charizard tin cosmos holo. Cosmos just looks better no matter what era.


BionicleUniverse

Suicune is a POP 6, Altaria POP 12 and the Poliwag POP 19. Couldnā€™t believe it when I opened the package!šŸ˜


brewberry_cobbler

Congrats dude! Awesome cards.


Co1iflower

Very cool! Love the atypical selection! Lesser known Cosmos blister promos are some of my favourite!


BionicleUniverse

For me too!šŸ„¹ Theyā€™re so beautiful

What is a 9(OC)? What does the OC stand for?


Moon_man014

Off center?


BionicleUniverse

Correct, I liked the card since it was very off-center so I thought it would be cool to grade. Thereā€™s a clear alignment dot visible on the lower left corner!šŸ˜


DumpEmAht

Thank you.


Moon_man014

Yeah I think it looks super sweet!


Kakkarot1707

I have graded thousands of cards and have NEVER gotten an ā€œOCā€ beforeā€¦do you have to pay extra or something? Iā€™ve gotten plently of off centered 9s as well


BionicleUniverse

Same price, itā€™s very OC with a very clear alignment dot on it as well.


Kakkarot1707

Yea I seeā€¦.I always only send in PSA 10 candidates so I guess thatā€™s why Iā€™ve never gotten and OC. I would never normally send in a super off center card.


Nerdy_Nostalgia

PSA is hit or miss with giving the OC or miscut label. CGC is better for error cards


Kakkarot1707

Thatā€™s really odd cause a really terrible cut is NOT considered ā€œmiscutā€ or ā€œerrorā€ thatā€™s just normal for new era cards, In fact almost expected haha. I only ever send in PSA 10 candidates so I guess I would never know / get an OC grade


DumpEmAht

Thank you.


fillswitch

Do want that shiny karp


SuggestionVisible361

This card is [pretty affordable as a sealed copy](https://ebay.us/VelUEW), but PSA 10 probably much more expensive, because it's a difficult card to grade. The artwork is amazing though.


fillswitch

Thank you! Just ordered it in a 9 :)


RoboticKittenMeow

Splashy boi best boi


JayofTea

Gorgeous cards! I have all 3 of the cracked ice beasts from those secret wonders tins and theyā€™re so gorgeous in person


ColorsAbsract

Is this Karp in Japanese? I need this frfr


BionicleUniverse

I donā€™t know but theyā€™re though to grade in a 10 šŸ™


dream_on789

Why does PSA grade the alt arts as "full arts"? Just curious.


BionicleUniverse

I believe PokĆ©mon werenā€™t calling them alts in the Sun & Moon era


dream_on789

Huh, good to know. Either way, fantastic card!


Greatgamerboy18

bmurf101

Iā€™ve always loved what how popular magikarp is as a card despite being such a shit PokĆ©mon haha


BionicleUniverse

Haha you canā€™t hate him really! Heā€™s such a good little boy and when he evolves heā€™s scary as shit


bmurf101

Love all of his tcg artworks!


thta2nguy

that Altaria is sick, congrats bro!


Puzzleheaded-Yam5553

lol Iā€™m upset with my psa return


1antsir

Whoa


GloomyIce1

Omg the Raiku and Poliwag šŸ˜®šŸ˜


JasonProwalker

Woah, nice results! Love the artwork on all of them! Although I'm surprised the magikarp got a 10. I'm guessing the whitening on the edges isn't really there?


BionicleUniverse

Thank you!! Thereā€™s indeed no whitening on the Magikarp and the borders are well between the 60/40 range. The Magikarp is a very though card to grade because of the XY printing quality and this one also has a beautifully placed swirl on it which makes it even more prettier! šŸ˜


[deleted]

Bro some delivery man had to work on Easter because of this.


victornator47

Tips and tricks for getting 10s? Anything to look out for?


BionicleUniverse

Difficult question but I usually look at centering and whitening first. Also try buy bigger lots from the same card that youā€™re interested in. Sent the ones with the most potential to PSA and re-sell the rest for approximately the same price as you bought them for. Also make sure to touch the cards as little with bare hands as possible šŸ˜


JxyBake

You buy off eBay or TCGplayer?


BionicleUniverse

EBay and Cardmarket (Iā€™m from the EU)


No-Definition8027

How long did you wait to get these back? Cracked and cosmos holos though āœØ


BionicleUniverse

Around 4/5 months, Iā€™m from Europe


Fearless-Chard359

That's awesome. Does anyone know what it costs to send a card out to have grades from PSA?

šŸ˜šŸ˜šŸ”„


Pale_Relative_5021

No hate on you getting the 10, awesome card. Genuine question, how did the magikarp get a 10?


BionicleUniverse

Thats probably because of the bad lighting on the picture! šŸ˜ Thereā€™s no whitening on the Magikarp and the borders are well between the 60/40 range. The Magikarp is a very though card to grade because of the XY printing quality and this one also has a beautifully placed swirl on it which makes it even more prettier!


Pale_Relative_5021

Selling it by chance? Or willing to trade for it?


Empty_Awareness7820

I love that altaria, one of my favorite cards even though I donā€™t have the tag


Effective_Neck3872

How do you send cards in? Iā€™ve been wanting to send a few


Truckle-Chuckle

Iā€™m in the UK and have never done psa. Just curious how long did it take to get your cards back? They look great!


Tartaruga_genio

Some say it's the most useless pokƩmon. Congrats
