This is the reason GameStop stock is soaring again! The market loves their connection to PSA!

So PSA bought SGC, and now Game Stop is buying PSA? Is that correct?

I called my local gamestop and they said they are only buying pokemon cards and that's not until June.

From the article, it sounds like this is still in progress so all the details may not be completely worked out, but it did say sports and gaming cards. Time will tell what really happens.

I don't think so. Man, that would be the literal end of PSA. GameStop management is notoriously slimy and incompetent. Don't even think they'd have the money to buy PSA. Even if they cashed in a bunch of their presently inflated stock. They've been treading water between a meme stock and another Blockbuster for years now. Last edited by D.

No, I don't think so. According to the article, they will be buying PSA graded sports and gaming cards that have grades of at least an 8 and a value of at most $500.

That's because they don't keep any more then $500 in the cash register at a time. Don't go in the morning when they open up...because they won't have the cash in the register yet. May not even be until much later if they have a slow morning. They will definitely push to give you credit instead. One of the reasons will be...they don't have the cash in the register. Try the next GameStop up the street if you want cash. It's a real desperate racket. |

I'm curious what kind of baseball cards fit into this category, mid tier 60's HOFers comes to mind but I don't know enough about the >=PSA 8 <$500 market to hazard a guess.

I also see this making no waves or even ripples in the hobby, much like the discussion on StockX inclusion which has been a non-factor. StockX monetized PSA grades and not cards which predictably is not succeeding well and has been become a dump off for flawed and over graded cards as no scans are shown. You simply buy a card in the grade sight unseen. Sellers know they can send their 8's to stockx that are 90-10 centered and would sell for less because the buyer is getting just the grade they paid for and nothing else. The same group will be dumping their lower graded 7-8 modern cards because of no qualifiers to an unknowledgeable Game Stop employee for sales on a likely blind website as well. These selling methods of using a grade and not a visible card as commodity is the poorest thought out idea on earth.
