Why is PSA not grading cards from other languages than English and Japanese?
At least in terms of Pokémon they don’t grade German cards other than base set as far as I know.
I’ve been dipping my toes into yugioh lately and saw several German yugioh cards being graded by PSA. And they were not from LOB which would be the equivalent to base set.
I simply don’t understand that logic. Can someone enlighten me? Did they change their policy or is there any reason I don’t see?
They have graded some specific German cards after Base Set, such as this:
But I don’t know why or which other cards that may have been graded ^^
Haha, that makes even less sense. I’ve got a German crystal charizard that’s equally as stunning as its English and Japanese counterparts. And it’s kinda a huge letdown that PSA doesn’t seem to value them equally.
In my opinion is PSA missing a huge opportunity here. Since egs is grading tcg cards their turnaround times have increased from 10 days to 6 weeks and Pokémon cards graded by them pop up everywhere now. So it tells me that there is a demand here for grading.
