Any interested in a NEW Piggyback Special for OLD cards??? GRADES POSTED!! DELIVERED!

[bobbyw8469]

Bad news guys! The order is now on hold! So yes, more than likely due to upcharges. I will pay it and contact the lucky winners.

[bobbyw8469]

6 cards have received upcharges. They are as follows.

#83 - Walter Johnson $75
#92 - Walter Johnson $50
#94 - Christy Mathewson $50
#95 - Christy Mathewson $50
#96 - Cy Young $50
#121 - Hooks Wiltse $50

[bobbyw8469]

Looks like someone had a lot of heavy hitters....lol

[BuzzD]

I am surprised they have not posted the grades so that one could understand the up charges

I have seen them on a PDF but it's impossible to copy and paste and put them on a spreadsheet that way. Should be tomorrow. Thank you for your patience.

If I was the owner of this card I would be pissed it's a tough combo but there isn't a past sale of this combo over $500. It would definitely bring more than that but so wouldn't a lot of other cards in this and other subs. It's tied for the highest graded in their pops are they taking that into account now on their fees?

Most of these cards have went up a lot since they were sent in for grading. If my Waddell portraits grade where I think they will I'm sure there's going to
be an upcharge on them because of the price increase from the time they were sent in until they finally do get graded.

Agreed. I checked the comps on that one and told the owner I thought they were splitting hairs on it. If I was selling it, I would ASK around $1,500 for it. If it was a .99 cent auction though, it would probably bring around $750. And yes, when they were submitted a year ago, the values were a lot lower. But what can you do?

The Wiltse is mine. It seems like a silly upcharge to me too...I’m just happy to get the cards back soon.

I immediately thought of you when I saw that group of cards Sonny.
Congratulations there are some tough cards and nice grades in the group.

Cracks me up that the box is literally dented in on the word "Fragile". Hope everyone's cards come back ok.

[BuzzD]

holy cow!

They were in boxes within the box. They packed them up really good. I don't even pack them up that good.

It probably took them 3 weeks to pack it.

No thread is complete without cards!

Thanks Jay!!! I forgot I subbed it!

On a side note - guys - the quicker you respond to these PM's, the quicker I can get these cards back out to you!

[bobbyw8469]

Here is another one of mine I think looks good for the grade.

[Natedog]

Wowza! Great looking cards, Bobby! Thanks again for doing this!!!

Nice meeting you today Anthony!

[Natedog]

Great to meet you as well, Bobby! Our mail has been hit or miss the last few weeks around here, so I wanted to pick them up in person. Plus, I got to meet a fellow Net54 member for the first time!

[bobbyw8469]

The majority of cards have since been delivered. Feel free to post your faves.

[BuzzD]

I just picked up mine from the post office. Thanks again, Bobby for your help on this year long project.

[inceptus]

John is back home after a year at sea!

Thanks again, Bobby, for expending the time and considerable effort to coordinate all this.

My two favorites

The best and worst grade. Thanks again Bobby

Why did that Doc Crandall only get a '1'??

[dclarkraiders]

It is very hard to see but there is a crease that runs from the bottom of the card starting between the C and r for about an inch. I love the eye appeal of the card in spite of the grade.

[Tyruscobb]

Received my cards this past Saturday. It was great seeing them after almost a year. Thanks again Bobby! Now on to watching the Swingin Sixties submission group return.

Not to harp on this but according to their price guide values there shouldn't have been an upcharge on any of these.

Bobby,
Cards came today. Thank you again for doing this.

Jim

[cubman1941]

For some reason I could only up load one.

[stutor]

Mine arrived today. Thank you Bobby...you are the best. Unfortunately, PSA isn’t...

OMG....That is horrible........did you tap them back in place?

[stutor]

I tried tapping, but they wouldn’t budge. So I literally hammered them against a hardcover book. I was very much afraid that I was going to crack the cases, but that’s the only way they would move. You have to squeeze the case and pinch the part of the card you don’t want to move or it’s impossible to center the card. After much ado, I finally got them into an acceptable position..

I assume the postal service handling was excessively rough, but I’m surprised the cards can slide beneath the four borders. I’m just really happy to have the cards back, and I genuinely appreciate your organizing the submission.

All’s well that ends well !!!

It's not the postal service Sonny it's the holders I was hoping PSA corrected the problem but I guess they didn't.

All of mine came back the same as yours last year and like you said there's no way to get them centered in the holders.

That's unacceptable. Are only the T206's affected??? Didn't SGC have a similar problem with them as well?

What does SGC have to do with PSAs poor quality control?

[bobbyw8469]

That is not what I said. Not all all. PSA has a problem with T206's slipping around in the case. SGC has the exact same problem, with T206's slipping around past the gasket in THEIR case. I know the cards are super thin, but I don't recall EITHER grader having this problem in the past??

So....to answer your question.,.....they have NOTHING to do with PSA's poor quality control. They have everything to do with SGC's poor quality control.

Just scanned this one. Thanks again Bobby !!!
