February 2026 Recap

This Blastoise is in rough condition, but that makes it fun to work on. Let’s try to make some improvements. Part 1. Was demonstrated LIVE last Wednesday night and the video is available. #kurtscardcare #thehobby #TCG #Pokémon #coolstuff

Snagged this card for $600 last year. PSA 5s are often overlooked, but there are definitely sleepers in those slabs. Once I cracked it, I gave it the TLC it deserved—a deep clean and some careful edge work to get it back to its original form. I resubmitted to BGS because I love seeing those sub-grades. Products used: Polish, spray, and card tool. I’ve got a stack of successful regrades from the past year, so if you’re into these kinds of follow-ups, stick around. More upgrades are on the way. — Kurt #kurtscardcare #tcg #pokemon #collectibles
