Hi HN. I collect Pokémon cards, and the question I kept asking was whether a card was worth sending to PSA. Grading costs roughly $60 to $95 a card once shipping is included, takes months, and plenty of cards come back worth less than that. Should I Grade It? takes a photo of a card, identifies it, estimates the PSA…
Cool idea. Does glare or photo angle change the estimate much? Centering and corner wear are hard to judge from a phone shot, so I'd be curious how it copes with that.
