1965 Topps Willie Stargell: slab or no?

[jkray25]

I'm trying to decide if I should send this off to get it slabbed or sell it raw quickly.

This is a turnaround for me as I don't collect Post-War currently. Funds will contribute to my T206 savings for a matty/cobb

What do you guys think this would grade out as? And if I went the slabbed route I'm not sure I follow the 'lowest grade accepted' idea.

Let's say I think it's a solid 8 with 8.5/9 potential. If I put 8 and PSA think it's less will they just send it back completely or would they contact me?

Just had a couple questions about it and I struggled to find a clear answer online, plenty of info on qualifiers and no grades but not much on this.

Thanks

I think it will grade a 6 at best. I don't think it is worth sending in.

I agree. The bottom corners look dinged from the back scan. A 6 would sell for about your grading and shipping fees if you're lucky. I would sell it raw and move on.

Thanks for the reply guys!

Centering is also probably 8 or less. Wouldn't get an 8.5 with that centering anyways, either at BGS or PSA.

All the corners are really soft, and one looks bent (upper right). That's a 6 at best, I agree. Not worth grading.
