Overall, pleased with the results and service, a few cards done for resale purposes, but most to keep. Struck out with 71s as I was going for high grade 8.5 or higher
57 Williams. Bought this raw, overpaid, did not see scratch marks on surface when I bought it, just wanted a 5 and I got it. Still like the card:

Bought a raw set for $450 and this Brett card made it worth my investment, also got many nice cards to upgrade my set:

Nothing too special about the Rice but I liked the centering and was happy with a 7.5, bought it raw probably in the 20-ish range.

Picked this up at a LCS a couple years ago for under $5, now a $175-ish card. Very pleased with the result.

Not a big fan of modern cards but living in Pittsburgh I have to have a Crosby and Malkin RC, and have a PSA 10 Young Guns Crosby, was nice to add a Malkin PSA 10 too even though I was not expecting this grade.

Last one I'll show is a '75 Morgan that also came with that set and I thought the card was as perfect as you can get, sold it to a collector yesterday. Felt good that my instincts were right and indeed it graded very high.
