    If you are going to collect vintage...I cannot recommend ENOUGH to get jeweler's loupe...as it WILL reveal nearly ALL the card's secrets. BEST IDEA- carry about a little case with you, that has a loupe AND a beat up vintage authentic card SO you can compare the one you are about to possibly buy to THE beat one from the same series (preferably a cheap common)....in this way, you do NOT have to "visually memorize" the dot patterns. REALLY - this vid is A MUST for collector's. An outstanding vid - keep up the great work!

    Great vid! It's also a good way to spot pin holes before sending in.

    A sharp Mantle in a toploader is the first red flag. There may be legitimate reasons why the seller didn't get it graded (too busy? they prefer raw no matter the card?) But as a skeptical buyer I have to think either there's a reason it's not graded, or that it was sent in and it was sent back unslabbed.

    How do you know when sending a card to PSA you are getting your original card back? Can’t someone easily switch your nice mint card with a less inferior card ? And you are screwed ?

    Do you have any way to evaluate that Topps cards 1964 from Venezuela are genuine? I have reviewed several already graduated with the light test and all of them allow light to pass through.

    How does anyone know when sending a card out to be graded PSA or other grading company’s that your mint card is not switched with a less inferior card ? Sorry , I just don’t trust these company’s especially dealing with thousands of dollars 😳
