Bobby, I have about 6-8 cards I have been needing to have graded by PSA. I’ll gladly join your sub. I have seen your others in the past and think your communication through every step is top notch. Thank you for having another.

[pokerplyr80]

how much per card?

[jcc6252]

Bobby, I'm in again for a few.

FWIW: PSA has a quarterly special for pre 1960 cards with only a 25 card minimum and 45 day turnaround. You probably already know that but a 45 day turn is better than the 85 day turn on bulk submissions. I broke a large bulk submission into 4 smaller ones at the National and am curious what the results will be.

I’d love to take part (my first ever PSA submission).

Thanks for organizing this!

That is good, but I do like the BULK subs, because there are ZERO limitations.....old cards....new cards.......doesn't matter.

Do it.

I can send cards this week.

Opinions needed...

I have this 1968 Mantle with an ST qualifier. The 'stain' is a tiny bit of gum/wax in front of his face, and it could be eliminated immediately with a quick wipe of the panty hose (don't get me started on my hatred of the 'stain' designation with regards to wax on the front of a card)...

Should I do it? Obviously, the only reason I would is because I want the card to be more 'valuable' due to the lack of a qualifier, but I would be annoyed if it came back as a lower grade (which is always a possibility) and/or possibly graded with an OC qualifier instead, because I just realized it is somewhat uncomfortably close to the bottom (and left) border.

I wouldn't do it. You're right, you don't know what you're going to get.

Yes do it

[Copa7]

I'd consider it, but SGC just ran a special on our page. And the wait time is just shorter.

But thanks. Maybe next time.

Knock on wood. I decided to crack it out and it literally took one swipe of the panty hose to eliminate the dreaded "STAIN." PSA really has to re-establish their official stain guidelines. Gum residue on the glossy surface of a card (especially if it's very small) isn't a stain. Spilling root beer on my 1984 Topps Don Mattingly is a frickin' stain.

Sounds reasonable. I have some I can send.

[stutor]

I have a few I would love to add. Is there a maximum value?

[1880nonsports]

if you're silly enuff to repeat yourself I then have 4/5 space cards for you!
