We're in the in-between dry zone for specials right now. Any guess for July specials? Hopefully they will announce something soon.

    My guess is none, or some non-sport special.

    If PSA's "deciders of specials" reads this forum, I am begging them to please please have an oversize card special for us oddball collectors.
    And...I'm being greedy now...to also have a Topps Coin special.

    Oversize card special would be wonderful!

    Oversize would definitely be welcome.

    I’d also personally like to see a dual grading special.

    Looks like it's an 80's sports special for $15 per card:

    Cool. I have some 80/81s I've been stacking to send. This is good.

    I hope the next vintage is for the 70s.

    My guess is they announce a special for The National.

    I think rather than an oversize special, they ought to lower the price permanently for oversize cards at this point. You're stuck at what, $75 for Regular service for the cheapest option?

    Glad I was wrong. This 80s special is actually pretty good timing.
    But only regular size or smaller again? Was hoping to get my '81 Topps Scratch-off panels in there too.

    For what it’s worth, SGC doesn’t consider tall boys to be oversized. A card like a 1976 Topps Basketball card is not considered oversized. Anything larger than that is. I was shocked to learn this recently.

    The small Declared Value Limit of $199 really hurts it for me. I have a large 2 row box of cards that I need to send in and I hope the majority are above that value. That box will stay in the safe. Instead I have a couple hundred Ken Griffey Junior Rookies and I will pick out the best 30 or 40 and send them in. I haven't gambled in awhile.

    Successful coin BST transactions with Gerard and segoja.

    Are they worth significantly over $199? I think you could declare them at $199 to take advantage of the special and then accept any extra charges if there are any. You might get lucky.
