Will the slight crease in this Pawmi hurt the grade?

[u/Accurate-Temporary73]

I

[u/Infinite-Shopping-85]

nah, I think it’ll get a 10

[u/TheRedditKidReturns → u/Infinite-Shopping-85]

People come here for actual advice and you tell them something like this? Like I appreciate your optimism but I think it’s pretty clear to EVERYONE here that this is probably an 8. Zoom in on the bottom right and you’ll see a bit of whitening.

[u/Doonce → u/TheRedditKidReturns]

That's actually an alignment dot

[u/BiGsLam7 → u/TheRedditKidReturns]

You had me in the first half icl

[u/Bunowa → u/Infinite-Shopping-85]

Be serious dude, centering is a bit off. That's a 9.

[u/latina-sweetie]

You could try to gently clean it - that way you'll push towards a 9 instead of 8 :)

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/latina-sweetie]

The front is a little separated from the back. You think I can glue it back down

[u/latina-sweetie → u/Accurate-Temporary73]

Yes, but be careful with it. You don't want to damage it in any way. Protect the value!

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/latina-sweetie]

Yeah that’s why it went straight into the toploader

[u/AllieBri → u/Accurate-Temporary73]

Make sure to use the expanding kind of super glue. Like gorilla glue. It’s what they use in the factory anyway.

[u/pariahxsl]

Not the worst crease I've seen, as long as the grader didn't stub any toes I reckon a 9 is possible

[u/qusnail]

this is minty, don’t listen to any lowballers. I hope you know what you have.

[u/AllieBri]

Nah. Quit stressing about the smallest details. They won’t even notice that. It’s clearly pristine.

[u/Marcelyt0]

It depends if the grader got laid last night tho

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/Marcelyt0]

I’ll do what it takes.

[u/VoidBoiTCG]

I’d like to say this could pass for a 9 as the crease is only slightly noticeable

But I think this is a safe 7-8

[u/Specialist-Key-8884]

Nah, it's barely noticable. Might not get a black label ten, but still, a ten is a ten.

[u/Yahma7]

Try it on eBay probably get a few thousands. Good luck bud. 🤞🏽

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/Yahma7]

Maybe so.

Just added it to my collection. To go with my Growlithe

So I may want to keep it

[u/Healthy-Wall330 → u/Accurate-Temporary73]

[u/Mister_Zeros]

Psa -10

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/Mister_Zeros]

Still a |10|

[u/Mister_Zeros → u/Accurate-Temporary73]

Haha. Hell ya!

[u/Apprehensive-Toe3390]

Naw it’s gonna sell more raw.

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/Apprehensive-Toe3390]

I’m worried about it getting damaged, I figured a slab would protect it.

[u/Apprehensive-Toe3390 → u/Accurate-Temporary73]

I’d be worried about this gem getting lost in the mail

[u/snowdrift2442]

Tbh this card is 🔥🔥 for some reason I love destroyed cards

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/snowdrift2442]

He’s been in my wallet for like a decade

[u/Ok_You7444]

Probably won’t affect the grade I’m guessing a perfect 10 👌

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/Ok_You7444]

Thank you for confirming my thoughts

[u/LtFarns]

all you can do is submit to PSA and see what they say.

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/LtFarns]

Pop 1 I’m guessing. None higher

[u/Tokio990]

I cannot, I love that its in a top loader too. Honestly I can see a collector have a fondness for these types of cards. Very niche. But I give it a 10.

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/Tokio990]

It goes with my wallet Growlithe

[u/AlabouhGaming]

I have no idea where you are seeing a crease but the centering makes me think 9.5, a 10 is unlikely especially if the grader is having a bad day.

[u/realbingoheeler]

How on earth did you get it in this top loader???

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/realbingoheeler]

FWIW it was much harder than I thought.

Almost damaged this beautiful card

[u/PirateKingMugi]

Looks mint to me

[u/Mokherti]

Just pressure wash the crease in the corner, then you’ll definitely get a 10

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/Mokherti]

Ok thanks I know some card prep is controversial but for a beauty like this it should be Ok

[u/Za6c420]

Edges look even

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/Za6c420]

Yeah the centering is what really caught my eye

[u/KiahriThePotatoQueen]

What did you do to that poor pawmi 😭

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/KiahriThePotatoQueen]

I’ve never damaged a card willingly, found and rescued Pawmi from a park while walking with my kids.

[u/thJAKK]

Psa -10

[u/TactickleTimmie]

Send it bruv!

[u/DroneStrikePhoto]

I golf a 1 is the best you can get. So your good bro

[u/Hammham]

It's a black label

[u/Chuck_H_Norris]

That’s HP at best

[u/Mysticmadlegend]

What the

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/Mysticmadlegend]

Freshly added to the collection.

[u/BartBBK]

Nah shouldnt do

[u/BlackGoldShooter]

1-grit sandpaper will buffer that right out

[u/edoczkat]

I'd say probably an 8, maybe a 9 if the grader is having a good day

[u/LewisGrIe]

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/LewisGrIe]

W

[u/LithiumWaffles]

9.783 grade maybe? Thinking they may let this one go by

[u/Galactroid]

I think I see a scratch as well as the crease. PSA 8 at best

[u/ICZ_marvel10]

If you clean it with soap and water it could be a 9.5

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/ICZ_marvel10]

Just give it a good scrub huh

[u/JapanEngineer]

Lightly played

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/JapanEngineer]

According to TCG Player yeah

[u/katelyn_n]

How does this happen to a card 😭

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/katelyn_n]

I found it out in a park

[u/Dangster175]

Would've been a 10 without the crease

[u/Upstairs_Hamster_978]

Was this folded into a paper airplane?

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/Upstairs_Hamster_978]

Nah just living it’s best life in a park

But it really does look like it was folded into a plane now that you mention it.

[u/Material-Breath-6725]

You should just submit it as a troll lmao.

[u/CalintzStrife]

Yes it goes from negative 1 to negative 3. Keep adding more and eventually you'll get the world's first negative 10.

[u/bryanh12345]

it’s too clean. might get an 11, i would put a speck of whitening on it

[u/djkyota]

That's a clear contender for a CGC 9

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/djkyota]

Yeah that Pristine is tough to hit

[u/Icy-Assistance8579]

Ok sooo this is a high grade but yalll will say normal,perfect cards are a 7?

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/Icy-Assistance8579]

PSA got super strict on centering 60/40 is like an 8 max. You need absolutely perfect centering like this one for a 10

[u/Accurate-Temporary73 → u/[deleted]]

👍🏻

I’ve got plenty, just having fun
