I ruined my card! How much will this dent impact my grade?
in CGC Trading Cards General Discussion
Posted · Edited by ihave458ducks
I left my Umbreon VMAX Alt Art in a sealable sleeve, and put it in a screw down plastic display case. I guess I was too excited when I cracked it.
Looking over other submissions that get 6s or 7s, I haven't seen anything like this, so I can't find a reference point of what I might expect.
The centering is already a bit off on the back, probably an 8. This dent is mirrored on the right side of the backing too, and a small mark on the bottom. All of these are hard to see unless there's a bright light on them. Nothing on the front, though. The edges look alright and the corners seem fine, I feel like they could be 8.5-9.5s, but I'm worried these dents will knock the whole thing down to a 7 or 6. This is for collection purposes, so I don't intend to resell this any time soon, and I have already sent it, but how much did I ruin my card? What grade should I expect?
