I'm not sure how you did but SGC did great!

Regardless of grade your cards look much better with a black apron.

Default The End Result

Hi everyone, thought some of you might be interested to learn how this experiment turned out. I went into this buying the T206 WaJo, Cy Young, and Matty cards where I believed the grades weren’t doing them justice - two of the cards had MK qualifiers and the other I thought was just undergraded. After getting them regraded with SGC, I was a bit torn about keeping them or selling. I decided to sell all three and did so using the Fanatics Collect weekly auction. Their process worked smoothly and I feel I did every bit as well as with eBay or other auction options. Bottom line - after card costs, shipping, and grading I came out a little more than $400 ahead. Summary attached.

This was a fun experiment and I believe the cards as sold showed them in their best possible light. I am happy to have at least broke even and pocketed a few dollars but don’t know that I’ll try this again.

Thanks all.

Nice post and appreciate you following up. $400 is better than a loss

I will say that I also believe market conditions may have affected these sales.
