Cracker Jack Collectors....what is the secret

[dtp717]

I've submitted several Cracker Jacks to both companies recently and PSA seems to grade a little more harshly. I've had a beautiful Leach and Frank Smith card each come back a 2 and an Oldring beater I was actually embarrassed to submit also come back a 2, so it's frustrating to understand what they're looking for, to say the least. That being said, you've got some nice '14s, and if one comes back a 4, now you're talking a decent chunk of change. They'll hammer you hard on the paper loss, unfortunately. I've had a little better luck with SGC and prefer them ever so slightly. Most of the guys here, with much more experience collecting than I have, will tell you a high end card in a PSA holder will do better for you.
