Print lines will tank your holo grade and there's nothing you could've done — they're factory defects baked into older sets. Know what you're submitting before it surprises you. https://t.co/5UVHjSZoBs #TCGrader #CardGrading #GradingTips #CardCare #HowToGrade

Hold a card up to a bright light. See a dark layer in the middle? Real. Too much light bleeding through? Fake. That's it. That's the whole test. https://t.co/5UVHjSZoBs #TCGrader #CardGrading #GradingTips #CardCare #HowToGrade

60/40 centering looks fine to the naked eye. To a grader, it's the difference between a 9 and a 7. That tiny border shift costs more than most people realize. https://t.co/5UVHjSZoBs #TCGrader #CardGrading #GradingTips #CardCare #HowToGrade

Sliding a bare card into a toploader is how you scratch a gem before it ever gets graded. Penny sleeve first. Always. No exceptions. https://t.co/5UVHjSZoBs #TCGrader #CardGrading #GradingTips #CardCare #HowToGrade

Your 8s could be 9s if you knew this: factory edge whitening runs uniform along the entire cut. Handling damage? That's spotty, right where fingers grabbed. Learn the difference. https://t.co/5UVHjSZoBs #TCGrader #CardGrading #GradingTips #CardCare #HowToGrade

Silver bleeding on holos will tank your grade faster than you can say "mint condition" — but most people grade these cards under terrible lighting and miss it completely. https://t.co/5UVHjSZoBs #TCGrader #CardGrading #GradingTips #CardCare #HowToGrade
