    THE 2,000TH SET WINS!
    Very soon the PSA Set Registry will reach another milestone and list 2,000 registered sets! To celebrate, we are offering a prize to the person who registers the 2,000th set. If you are the winner, you will receive 3 free PSA gradings.

    Rules:

    You must add a legitimate new set, in other words, a set you plan to build on or is complete.
    You may add as many sets as you wish until the home page of the registry shows 1,970 sets registered. Then only one set will be validated per registrant. Sets are validated in order of date stamp. Once you click on the READY FOR VALIDATION button, your set is date stamped down to the second.
    If you are a winner, your 3 cards must be sent in at one time using the regular service level.
    We want to take this opportunity to thank you for your unending support and enthusiasm. The set registry is nothing short of amazing because you make it so.

    Calleocho, sorry I didn't see your thread on the topic and had posted my own thread. I need to tab down more often.

    Obviously you were thrilled at the prospect of 3 free grades! That's correct, THREE!

    Hold all bets. I just heard that they're cutting it back to two free submissions from three. Apparently the 80's special wasn't the smash success they had hoped for.

    Who cares about the marital bonds when there is a possibility of THREE FREE GRADES

    Nonsense! The 80's special is bound to have been a smashing success with all the late 80's Topps stuff just crying to be encapsulated

    Zardoz,

    Could you explain how many THREE is in terms that are easy to understand. Like, if I put 3 dollar bills end to end, how far will it reach?

    Also, for all of you tax and accountant types, will I be responsible for the taxes on the gradings if I win?

    I believe three dollar bills stacked vertically would reach .0000000000000000000000000000000000001% to the moon !!

    But three dollars worth of early-American half cents would reach much higher. Nonetheless, three free graded cards is . . . . well, not much really.

    There are 1,992 sets registered! Who will be the lucky winner of the THREE FREE?
  • VarghaVargha Posts: 2,392 ✭✭
    Tres gratis. Woo-hoo!
  • zardoz51zardoz51 Posts: 1,168
    'm certainly excited. How bold of PSA to express their gratitude and display their generosity with such a fabulous reward!

    better that they had not offered anything rather that toot their horn over THREE free gradings!

    I hope that the winner has enough style and class to politely refuse this "prize"

    It would be nice to see one of our own win. We all though Jay was going to win last time, but the fix was obviously in.

    Well guys I guess I'm the lucky winner with the beginnings of my 1977 Topps set. Contacted PSA and they said I could send the 3 free cards in with a bigger order so that I don't have to pay shipping back to me on only 3 cards. Have many more 77 topps which were just opened from 2 unopened boxes, but was waiting to see if the next special is a 70's revisit or something I could use before sending them off to PSA

    Just out of curiosity (I am in sore loser mode image), how do you know you won, and why don't they ever offer me free return shipping when I send 2 invoices in?

    But hey, congrats anyways! image

    GEMMINT - I still can't get over my misfortune of having set #1001 when I listed my 1960 Fleer set on April 3. I'm pretty sure Stonegate beat me by a second or two. His prize for the 1000th set registered, Nothing! I saved big bucks though, since I promised to buy drinks to the losers.
    MAYSMAN - Congrats on the 2000th set milestone, 3 free grades are a mighty impressive prize. I believe they were thinking of awarding either, 3 free grades, a 2002 Mercedes, an all expense trip to Paris or your entire set to be graded for free. So I guess they decided on the 3 free grades. Congratulations once again...jay

    riccaboni,
    They e-mailed me and my set and congrats notice appears in the psa registry under the "news" category.

    By the way they also told me the next grading special was going to be a 60's 70's and 80's combined special.

    Also, I don't get free return shipping, I just meant they said they'd allow me to send the 3 free cards in with a bigger order so that I don't have to pay $12 shipping on the 3 free submissions as FB suggested.

    Thanks,

    Paul

    Cool, sounds good to me, maybe next time they'll allow me to send the comp submission for miscut or whathave you, back with another invoice... That last comp I had to resubmit cost me $11...
