Grading Pokémon cards with TAG for the first time continues! In Part 2, I unbox the official TAG submission kit, walk you through the packing process step-by-step, and share my thoughts on the overall experience. This isn’t about flipping for value — it’s about preserving my favorite pulls in the cleanest slabs around. I’ll show you exactly what’s inside the kit, how the packing list works, and even give you a closer look at the cards I’m submitting — including a Charizard EX from 151!
