Posted By: Bill Stone
When submitting cards to be graded how do you value the cards? Let me give you two examples and ask you what to do: |

Grading cards--setting the value
Posted By: Bob
Bill- I always use as a value my considered replacement value. I know SGC and GAI must scratch their heads when I send them a card which is a little beaten up but has a high listed value but if the card is truly very tough, I figure what it is worth to me, not necessarily SCD's guide. |

Grading cards--setting the value
Posted By: Andrew
When shipping to SGC/PSA we state values - and pay a premium accordingly - in case of loss or dameage. I assume the grading company files a report, they get paid, then we get reimbursed. Or maybe they reimburse before being paid. Supppse I value a T206 common that has a market value of $50 for $3000 and pay the premium for that insurance tier, would the grading company still reimburse me $3000? If not, then shouldn't I get a refund for selecting too high of coverage? |

When grading, I always use what I have paid for the item, so I know at least I can get an equal return on my investment if something should happen. When placing an order for your cards shipping costs can get expensive, so if you write down the true SMR or SGC value you may pay double or triple for shipping. |

Andrew - I would think you would have to justify the card's value in |

But Mr. Piccuito, what about this situation; I have 16 Star Player Candy cards from 1928 which I want to get graded. This represents 22% of the set. Three of the cards are Hall of Famers (Sewell, Speaker, Traynor) and one is unique and wasn't known until I came to this board and showed a scan of it (Buddy Myer). I paid $3 to $5 dollars a piece for these a little over 10 years ago. |

Jason, they will have all the forms available at whatever show you attend. They can help you fill out the forms if needed. You can also fill out the forms in advance. |
