You just threw 30 bucks in the ocean to grade a 50 cent card.
A 1961 Topps card should be judged on how it was supposed to present when it came out of a pack in 1961, based on it's original production specs.
Not how a diamond laser cut Panini Prizm card comes out of the factory today.

AND I'd say it's a waste of 30 bucks 9 times outta 10. In a 10 card submission, there are gonna be 6's that are 3's and 7's that are 5's. I think they grade 55 bowmans and 53 topps fair. Everything else is minus 2 grades. I like their service and took a few chances. Will not send in to anyone again. Just re-affrirmed my feelings how stupid it is for the true collector.
