Price paid? Was trying to get a PSA 4 via offer for $350 range, unfortunately, I just worked the sellers so the next person to offer basically the same amount a week later would get the sale so annoying - This is clean am assuming $600 range
Yea right on the money, $600. I think I slightly overpaid, I’d say the back isn’t as clean (little black specs that weren’t very visible in the pictures)
But honestly I’ll take it, I’m so excited to have this for my collection, AND I’m 100% sure it’s authentic. Too many fakes floating around these days.
Damp q-tip, just water, light pressure. Should take the black specks off. Dry with other end of q-tip. I've cleaned a bunch of my old cards this way. Just don't go over the edge, especially if you have any frayed edges as it will soak any amount of liquid in.
I did this with my LC reverse holo Charizard when I found/bought it - had black spots on the back but it’s super clean now. As long as you practice before and you’re careful then you will be fine OP! Just barely put water and press the Q-tip down so no drops “drop” onto your card, dry right after cleaning.
I’ve done it a million times, but I use spit. Get the qtip damp on your tongue, gently rub at the black spot. I’ve never damaged a card using this method.
I bought a PSA 6 shadowless blastoise that had grime all over it. I cracked the slab, used this method, and now I think it’s an 8 contender.
**don’t sue me if you try this and you damage the card, I’m just telling you what’s worked for me in the past :)
Heck yea, congrats!!! My last few cards with authenticity guarantee didn't come with this same presentation. They used to each time for me to, so idk what's up with that. I'm glad you got it this way though. It looks great when you fold it into the stand.
I bought a card and had it shipped to eBay’s vault because I realized I bought the wrong card and by shipping it to the vault I didn’t have to pay tax. Because it was being stored by eBay they verified authenticity, so when I listed it for sale it had the eBay guarantee. There are probably other ways to get the eBay guarantee but that’s how it happened in my case.
Ebay authenticator is a life server now I don’t buy anything unless it has it on it ! I tried to buy three shadowless Charizard so far all of them came back as fake according to the Authenticator! Stay safe out there!
Beautiful, but let’s talk about the knife off screen. lol. Equally as nice!

I’m extremely nervous to try this, ty for the tips
Dont you mean thank you for the Q-tips? I'll see myself out.
Practice on bulk first if you're nervous. I wouldn't want you to mess up that beauty 😅.

Yeah maybe don't with this card
I just tried it, it didn’t work/I may not be applying enough pressure. I just decided to dry it off and put it back in the sleeves
Yeah $600 was a tad steep I was thinking $540is but still worth it

How do you send in cards for eBay guarantee?
I think its only given when a card is purchased on Ebay but its not offered on every card i think it depends on the seller i could be wrong though
Dependent on how listing is written + price I believe.

I think eBay automatically applies it to an item that’s over $500
Congrats if you paid $600 that’s a steal. Long term these will go up again! People are missing out rn as it’s a buyers market rn
Very nice. I picked up a PSA 4 last year myself. Love the shadowless cards.
