GTFOH with that!

Maybe 2023 Pokemons straight out of the pack...but vintage? No way.

Takes me like 10 minutes under a light, magnifying glass, and my own constantly trailing off thoughts to even come to a guess what a T206 I'm submitting "might" come back as...and I'm usually wrong.
Greg Morris said he was able to grade his cards listed on eBay in just a few seconds per card. I believe him. With the right setup and experience, you can grade cards fairly accurately pretty quickly. Especially if you only have to align them within a few grade ranges like he does.
