Obsessed with grades
In order to unlock this achievement you have to send in cards for grading using the application in the upper right on the tablet/phone.

All in all you need to collect a scale from PSA 1-10 in the same card category or "set" as is spesified in the achievement.

The collections are:
  • Tetramon pack
  • Destiny pack
  • Ghost cards

Either will do.

Note that there are lots of diffrent rarity cards in each collection such as:
  • Full Art
  • EX
  • Gold
  • Silver
  • First Edition
Just choose 1 card in the same rarity and stick to that one!

Step. 1
Get a low tier card that you have loads of as base and try to get it to PSA 1.
(The trickiest card to get is the lower tier PSA ones)











This can be done 3 ways:
1. Buy PSA 1 card from a customer.
2. Trade PSA 1 card from a customer.
3. Get back a card from PSA grading. (12/7/4/2, Days depends on your budget).

If you choose to grade your cards you can manipulate the outcome of the grading by saving the game as its own file the day before the grading is done.If you did not hit then reload and start the day again until you hit the card rating you want.(Red packages)

Step. 2
Send in the rest of the same card for PSA grading.
Eventually you want to have the same card type on all PSA numbers.







This is my collection from PSA 1-10 and it did the trick.



Step. 3
It is essential for you to have all cards in your deck/binder for the achievement to unlock.
Mine took a day ingame time to register after i had all the cards.

Graded gold
This achievement is kinda up to luck, but is also late game/rich store type grind.
You need to sell it for over 100.000 while the market price for the card is also over 100.000.


The easiest way to get this unlocked is to get a ghost foil card/god pack ghost foil, from the destiny legendary set.
These cards are the only ones that stay at a high price so that you can get them graded to sell for even higher.
Do this by using the card machines at non stop feeding them with legendary packs.
I used 10 * 64 Card machines and 5 * 128 machines and got them fairly early.


You will need a PSA 10 graded Ghost foil for this to be easiest.





As you can see the card not graded is not enough for the 100.000.
You need a PSA 10 and the right market conditions for it to sell.



Note that they have a high base price, but they do jump in price on the market quite frequently.











After you have the card at the right price, my method was to not have any other cards for sale, but only the 100.00 graded one with a save file at the start of the day. Then whait until someone with big pockets comes by and grabs it. be sure to set the sell price to market price.
Good luck!



Here is my card being sold.. Was too late for the counter to register only have the income..

You can grade already graded cards and i think they will go +- 1 from the last grade.

For obsessed with grades: can you get 1 and 2 grades out of those grading processes? I hope so cause the one that I bought with the grade one turns out to be of low occurrance as a card on its own. Will share experiences later on.
