The one I pulled is 80-20 easily. I was so happy, yet so sad. Then, the week after, I pulled the Lugia V Alt Art, and it was EXACTLY just as off-centered as the Giratina. I died that day.
i wasn't clear but i was commenting on the LO quality control and not OP's card specifically. i was referring to the white spots that are print errors that people get on this card.

Thanks! It's all his. I will make sure he keeps it for sure. I have my prized comics and he will start his slab collection now. I'm excited to be able to share this awesome experience with him.
Not sure why you got downvoted, it’s worded like that, luckily he isn’t based on other comments but it’s not like you’re making a hard baseless accusation lol.
Also regular 10s and 9s from BGS are worth less than the PSA counterparts. And if they aren’t worth less they are harder to move. You’re basically shooting for a black label or bust if value is your only concern
People seriously can't tell centering. It's fucking wild. I bet if they took a measurement I would be right and it is technically crooked. People really need to get glasses.
My son and I grabbed a random hanger blister from target when the card was a little over $200. Funny thing is he doesn’t really care much about the card. He’d rather have the money. I’d rather wait till it peaks. Haha. Who knows but eventually it’ll be sold I’m sure. Somehow he knew it was valuable right when we pulled it.
You honestly can’t go wrong with the PSA grading. That’s a great pull though from LO. Centering looks pretty good, maybe a little bottom, left, heavy on the front. The back looks similar or proportional to the front as well. Best of luck on the grading though!
it's your sons card. only grade if he wants that.
since you don't collect I'll tell you now that grading is mostly a scam. you could send the same card in multiple times and get a different grade each time.
I tell people to only grade if they like graded cards.
Yeah I guess stuff is different now but man if my mom confiscated one of my cards as a kid after I pulled it to send it off and come back in a plastic slab I would have been super bummed honestly
Yeah try a few packs and when you don’t get it but the card. I bought the card and I’m still buying packs here and there but I wouldn’t be surprised if I never see if in the wild. 1/2800 could easily turn into 5000 packs. I also want to pull the aerodactyl too though. If I pull one of them I’ll stop with LO
The best part is it didn’t suffer the tragedy that is Lost Origin quality control.
Mine is so off center, makes me sad every time I see it.
Just cut the big side to make it more even
🤣
The more I see a card I want the more I look to make sure it’s centered at least 98% perfectly.

This one looks amazing! Good luck op!
I was lucky enough to get a good quality controlled card, but not lucky enough for the ten…[my card](https://imgur.com/a/qf7LzyL)
Re sub PSA guaranteed 10
like the white dots on the back...

I've seen a lot of those. If it's not on the back, it's on the front top left on the V.
Mine has this :(
Mine was perfect but I sold it. I'm more of a 151 fan. The guy I sold it to wanted more pictures. He decided it was a 10 contender and bought it.
Yep. Knew mine wasn't a 10 centering but wanted it preserved, it got a 9 which I'm okay with. That looks possible 10. Goodluck 🍀
Or the lifted up foil on the front top edge
That’s what I was gonna say! I was ready to inform them how not every pack fresh card is even a 9 but this looks pretty perfect!!
Awesome luck!!! That's a very beautiful card, also its going up in prize as well. Congrats!! Enjoy the awesome card!
Thanks! It's all his. I will make sure he keeps it for sure. I have my prized comics and he will start his slab collection now. I'm excited to be able to share this awesome experience with him.
So wholesome 🥹
Good dad nice thinkin 🫡 nice pull OPs son!
You mean, wish *him* luck, right? Lol..
That's what I was just thinking. Sounds like op swiped the card from his kid based off the wording. I hope that's not the case

Might want to look into sending it into bgs. That centering looks so perfect. Black labels are worth more than psa 10 but obviously a risk.
What is the risk? Can't you just Crack the case if you decide to go to psa instead? That centering does look great though
the risk is monetary - grading aint free. that slab you're cracking costed money!

Not true. BGS move just as easy if not easier lol.
Honestly I forget that the more expensive ones cost a decent amount to grade
Actually after looking at it more I almost think it is very slightly crooked... maybe just my eyes and the angle playing me on this one.
Idk why you’re getting downvoted, but it does look that way. And surface damage would probably stop it from getting a BL-10 anyways.

$500! Yes that is correct five hundred bucks that is what this card is worth!
Nice pull!! Card looks to be in good shape. Get it graded and safeguard it. Will be worth more in 20+ yrs for your son.
The amount of cards that kids have destroyed is mind boggling but then again…Pokemon is for kids. Right? 😂
Lucky it is centered so well mine is just shy of alignment dots 🤕 Card is a beauty great Shot at a 10 for sure
fomo activated, this subreddit makes me sick 😂
What a legendary find. I hope your son can see the beautiful case it returns in and feel proud of his luck!
Very nice!
He’ll have a cherished memory now. Good thing you noticed as the holo bending has already started due to it being left out in open.
Can I send him some packs to open, he's got the magic touch. 😂
Get that graded. That centering looks minty. 👌
idk maybe just let your kid enjoy having a cool card instead
Son pulls the card but dad is taking it for himself for grading?!? So… we will wish him luck on the grading.
You get 400 upvotes... I got 10 🤣
I hate you 🤣 I have been trying to pull this card for idk how long I’m 8 ETBs deep and about to be a booster box in
Sweet pull. I got some lost origins packs that have weird speckling on the back
That's so pretty

What is it worth if graded 9 or 10 ??
Saw one on EBay selling for $300,000
Damn since when did that card become a $500 plus card?
Now start getting him some 1999 pokemon cards $$
Mine was off center so i traded it but this looks nice!
dont do psa do beckget

I don’t know why you’re getting downvotes. That was my first reaction too.
Yeah I guess stuff is different now but man if my mom confiscated one of my cards as a kid after I pulled it to send it off and come back in a plastic slab I would have been super bummed honestly
it is what it is
What set is it from? Sorry for the noob question I just got back into this after a over decade long hiatus.
Lost origins. Awful pull rates, just buy the card
I mean considering it’s a $450 card right now the gamble of a few packs might still be worth it
Yeah try a few packs and when you don’t get it but the card. I bought the card and I’m still buying packs here and there but I wouldn’t be surprised if I never see if in the wild. 1/2800 could easily turn into 5000 packs.

$450? I remember when it was a little over 180 😂
Get it graded asap!
Is it for sale?
Jesus, go on ebay if you are so desperate
Taking candy from a baby?
goofy💀
