Do not hand your card to an employee.

I just went to GameStop to drop off my Moonbreon for grading. I brought it in a penny sleeve to buy the toploader and send it to PSA. they asked to see the card and I figured they were just writing down what kind it was or something. Out of nowhere, they start pushing it into the sleeve. They eventually go “I’m scared to force this in” and hand it to me to do, and now I notice their nail made a big chip in the top of the card.

I’m too passive and socially awkward to say anything even about a $1000 card, so I just get it into the sleeve and pay for grading and go. RIP my PSA 9-10. But just a warning: employees are not well trained and will try to handle your card even though they aren’t supposed to. Don’t give them the card until it’s in the top loader. Fml.
