you will get 16 bumps from the 163 card group, as PSA has been averaging 10% bumps on these submissions. |

Of course it depends on what you send in. |

Save your money and put in into a couple of cards. It's just another gimmick for PSA to make money. |

I have delivered three batches of cards in person to PSA--one time at John Wayne Airport, once at a hotel right next to the airport and the other at PSA headquarters which is no more than 10 minutes from the airport and easy to get to. The process went very smoothly all three times. Annabelle is Joe's assistant. I would contact her directly. |

Just a piece of information: in order to get same-day grading you have to pay the higher fee levels. If you want to avoid that, it may involve two trips - drop off and pick up. I would call Joe to see what is possible. |

Frank, why wouldn't you want to come out to Southern Cal? Come on, it's supposed to be 83 degrees today. That alone should be worth the trip! |

83 degrees... sunshine, and a fan of the Gashouse Gang... Yea, I'd go to meet a fan of those 1930's Cardinals, those high flying Redbirds!!! |

I would look them over before just submitting them all. Any that are not perfectly centered, I would save the money and not submit. On the cards I sent in, they circled why each card didnt get the bump, 80% of mine were centering, the other 20% were corners. |

Scott, is it your experience that those standards you described - centering being crucial -- exist only on bumps from grade 8 and up? What about 6s to 7s, 7s to 8s? |

Haven't decided what I'm gonna do, but at some point I think I have to make a move on the half-point issue. |

For what it is worth, on my '55 AA's I recently did a same day on two cards that were new subs that I was hoping for 10's (both came back 9) and I had an appt. at 11am for drop off, and they turned it around in 2.5 hrs. while I went and had a nice long lunch. If you arrange in advance, it can be done qucikly with a low or reasonable volume submission. Of course you will pay a lot of $$$ for this service, as their price depends on the value of your sub. Fyi - I paid $250.00 per card which is just about their highest price as my two cards were two of the most valued in the set. |

Jeff, I mainly sent in 8's but I did send in a 4 and a 5. The 4 got the bump to 4.5, it was very well centered only had slight corner wear, at a 4.5 it was a 1/1 highest graded and I sold it for about 3 times the price for a 4(easily paid for the whole sub x3). The 5 was rejected because of centering, I really though this would get a 6. |

Good luck on your reviews. Let us know the bump %'s if you could. Are they all pre-war, or ____ ? |
