Starting a T205 PSA mid-grade journey

[anchorednw]

Recently, I've decided to dip my toes into the T205 world. Instead of all SGC like my T206 runs, I've decided on mid grade (4-5) PSA. Here's my recent start. Safe to say I'm addicted. PS, looking for mid grade (or a little lower for SPs) if anyone has any PSA slabbed available.

Great job! That Probstein auction was amazing - seems like those cards were all submitted in 2021 or so. I wonder who had them raw and why they suddenly got graded. I picked up 5 cards in that auction, including the PSA 6 Speaker, which is gorgeous.

T205...Great looking cards and better value ( for now ) than the t206.

I'm working on a lower grade 205 collection.

Yes fabulous cards!

I am thinking about starting into a T205 set too...but would not likely be quite this high of grade (more like 2-3 range)

The T206's - 520 set have gone out of my stratosphere to jump in and try that one.

That Speaker was a beauty! Jumped a bit much for me dipping my toes in.

A word of advice, if I may- buy the HOFers in higher grade than the commons, and the better the HOFer, the higher the grade; if that means taking it slower, so be it. So often you see sets with an average grade of X, and all the commons are higher graded and offset the lower graded HOFers to get to the average grade. To me, this makes little sense. The value is in the HOFers. So spend the money where the value lies.

Great advice. Appreciate that and yes, makes more sense. Such beautiful cards!
