  1. Morning all, I know some printer hickies get error slabs, and some don't, and I assume it depends on the size of the hickey. I was wondering if anyone could help me determine whether this card would earn an error, as it has three smaller printer hickies in the art box. It almost looks like Ponytas mane is spitting embers 🔥 Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated Thanks, Chris
  2. Hello everyone, Just wondering if there are any error designations for misprinted First Edition stamps? I know the ghost stamp and grey stamp errors exist, but I've recently come across a first edition Team Rocket Eevee with a print error in the stamp. Like the 'd' Butterfree, this one has a dot that makes the 1 look like a 'P'. The stamp itself is also printed slightly further to the left than it should be. I'll include photos to show what I mean, and a comparison photo too. I've checked the stamp with a lightly damp cloth, and light scratching with a nail, and it has not budged, so I'm confident it is genuine. The card also has a black layer, and passes the light test. Its not wildly misprinted, but it's certainly an oddity. I've never seen a misaligned stamp before personally. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Chris
  3. Thanks Mike! Gengar has gone back in to my fossil binder, but Tentacruel is on his way in via Dans Pokéstop
  4. Hi! I am planning on submitting two cards for grading, both of which have clear errors on them. I was wondering if someone could advise me as to whether the errors are severe enough to earn an error designation on the slab? I've attached images to this post. I am not sure about Gengar. The white dot is not damage, and appear to maybe be an obstruction (albeit a very small one?). The gloss layer is completely intact. As for Mistys Tentacruel, it's twisted but doesn't have an alignment dot. You can, however, see what appears to be a slither of the edge of the sheet on the rear. Thanks in advance for any input Chris
