📉💀A Grading Nightmare 📉💀
Imagine dropping $30,000 on a pristine 1999 Pokémon Base Set Booster Box, ripping it fresh from the packs, sending the vintage holo hits straight to PSA, and getting smacked with a wave of PSA 6s and 7s! 😭💸
Talk about a complete PSA Graded Pokemon Booster Box Disaster. Ripping vintage is already a massive gamble, but when pack-fresh hits come back valuing at a fraction of the cost—like a Blastoise Holo pulling a PSA 6 worth $140.50 or a Raichu Holo getting a PSA 6 worth $38.15—it is a brutal financial hit.
Check out the viral breakdown from @meesterkeem showing the absolute destruction of a $30k box return. It begs the question:
1️⃣ Did PSA do him dirty? Pack-fresh doesn't always mean a 10 (print lines, factory scratches, and centering issues from 1999 are real), but straight 6s on clean pulls feels incredibly harsh.
2️⃣ Should he crack and regrade? Or send them over to BGS/CGC to see if they get fairer treatment?
3️⃣ Do people still trust PSA for vintage? Or are the pop-control rumors starting to feel a little too real?
Drop your thoughts below. 👇 Would you crack and resubmit, or is this just the harsh reality of vintage factory condition?

This might be bigger than just Pokemon! Fake slabs were made with real psa labels that were cleaned off and reprinted text. This fooled major auction houses and middlemen and even third party websites that authenticate. Are you still buying trading cards? The person scammed was @jpengcollection and he made a full video about it.
