Cards are a whole different animal then comic books. Centering is huge with cards. The first few cards you showed were EXTREMELY off centered left to right or vice versa. You have to look carefully before sending them in. I send in sports cards and they are just as hard. You did pretty good though man! Those sketch cards are awesome! But some of Those cards weren’t worth sending in. You should only send them in if you think it’s absolutely going to get a 9. I agree I would only use PSA for cards also. Comics I use cgc. But I’m not sure what you were trying to do with these cards if you are just trying to get them capsulated then that’s fine. Awesome cards I collected them as a kid also. I wish mine were in good condition I have a ton but they are rough from when I was a kid. I love that sketch card of black suit spidey! That’s is sooooo dope.

Centering is absolutely everything.. you can see on your cards, the borders are no-where near close. Talking millimeters… measure the white all the way around.. the closer to the same, the better the centering

If you are planning on submitting more cards from that series, I suggest that you invest in a gem mint card grading tool. It will help you with knowing what card is off centered.

At least CGC changed the labels, earlier this year (2023) they were using Blue labels to keep it consistent with comic grading labels. Some of these cards I would not even have graded.

I remember those cards from way back when. I remember going to my local Circle K as a kid to buy packs. I had a ton of them. Wish I still did.

What a bummer. Those cgc cases are pretty sweet as well as the box they packed them in. I would say any grade under 8 prob will fetch same as raw card though. I do love the marvel universe series 1 & 2 from early 90s

Your centering is BAD, that's why you got those low scores. 90% of these cards shouldn't have been sent into CGC or PSA.

I did this with new cards right out of the packs, and I was sad at the grades, all under 8. They throw 10's out to Pokémon cards a lot.

Just got a 25 card report sent to me today for cards from same series'. I reviewed centering and quality under magnification and nothing I sent in should have been below an 8 and yet 50% of them were below 7. Even if a card was slightly off center put otherwise flawless it shouldn't be -4+ points deducted. All the modern cards I sent graded 9's + so they have some kind of rule in place for vintage where they treat them differently and extremely harsh. At $13 grading for personal protective archiving it's fine with me I am not reselling, but it's unequivocally unfair and brutal towards the customer and actual value of the cards in the real world.

I’d never send cards to CGC personally. Always PSA. It seems like CGC grades cards exceptionally hard from what I’ve seen with Pokémon as well, and they don’t sell for as much (lose-lose). Whoever told you CGC grades easier is not correct. However, like others have said, the centering was pretty bad on a lot of the cards, but that alone doesn’t typically result in the types of grades you got. Especially on cards that have no holofoil on them. Non-holo cards typically grade the easiest because the surface is less likely to get scratches, there are no print lines, etc.

So you can get the grades you want, rather than the grades they deserve? This is why I will never buy or sell PSA.
