Help Wanted to review cards for PSA submissions

[uhlhockey]

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions, much appreciated.
was wondering what others thought would be a fair amount to pay someone, when I find them to go thru and advise on what to send to PSA???
...I figure the easiest would be a "per card" price...$0.10...$0.20...$0.25..$0.50....per card...?????????????

I will post me email address....I am not selling anything at this point....but if anyone needs to contact me...

Unless they make a living in the business I would hope it would be for free.

Also all you have to do to contact someone is click on their user name. You will then have the options of sending a email or PM(private Message) to that person.

Hi Joe,
I wouldn't pay someone to look through the cards and I assume you don't have the time to go through all the cards and judge condition. If I was in that position, like I said, pull all the Mantle, Aaron, Mays, Clemente, Koufax, Rose, Ryan, key cards you are familiar with and send to PSA. The rest, I would sell in lots on eBay, I would go through thousands to find a handful of MINT commons.

wow those are 1966 high numbers not 1967 but this is an amazing selection. Not sure what your plans are but I know someone who would pay very nicely (likely over book) for them raw if you are planning on selling.

Much in my opinion depends on your intent. Is it to keep the collection and submit cards because you would enjoy owning as many as possible in high grade, or is it to sell in the near term and maximize the value? I would advise against selling ungraded given how nice some appear to be, for what it's worth.

If your intent is to sell, either yourself or via consignment, it is almost certainly going to be worth grading many of those cards. You might also consider working with an auction house or (not quite an oxymoron lol) reputable dealer, I'm not going to name names here but would be happy to make suggestions.

If your intent is to own, then I concur with the suggestions to start with a select handful of major HOFers and maybe some centered high number commons to get a feel for how grading works.
