    Thank-you! I just ordered the microscope. I didn't realize these things were affordable and practical for video capture. I really have to join the 21st century, lol. This will be great fun going through all my cards with much more certainty. I can't wait. Thank-you, very informative video. The 'how to' long format videos are good content. I enjoyed your presentations and I am now excited about grading again. Cheers from Alberta!

    I just got into the hobby and have been afraid of grading a few hits I’ve gotten. This was really helpful, thank you!

    I've sent a couple of cards in (through a 3rd party) I was hoping all 10's, but one was off center just enough to make it a 9.

    Great video! I haven't graded Pokemon before but I have a good amount of experience with grading sports, pre-war vintage, and Weiss. This video definitely helped me understand what to look for in Pokemon now and even provided a few useful tips that I can use for my other cards too! Nice job!

    Have been scared to grade my cards but decided I will force myself to learn yesterday even if that means wasting some money on fees. You couldn’t have dropped this video at a more perfect time. Thank you brother

    They amount of streamers ripping and shipping cards i find are pretty rough and imo they slide the back side accross the face of the next card and ultimaetlt scratches the shit out of them and ive seen it furst jand. If your a streamer selling rip packs take extra care as i guarentee you 90% of the customers who is watching this are gritting their teeth watching and can break a mint grade 10 to a 9 by being careless.<br>Thanks for the video bro
