I dropped off 42 cards in old flips last weekend in Dayton, OH to PSA at the Ohio Card Exchange. I am surprised how quick the turnaround...these two (2) cards will arrive later today (9/20).

The 1966 Mays #1 is a monster card and congrats on owning it in a PSA 9 😳
What the crap bruh? What's the next post a 1954 Bowman Mantle PSA 10?
Nice facelifts, Monte! The new holders really make those cards pop.
I submitted seven cards for a new holder two months ago and I'm still on step 4.
Is there any downside to submitting cards to get a new flip? What is the cost?
Always looking for Mantle cards such as Stahl Meyer, 1954 Dan Dee, 1959 Bazooka, 1960 Post, 1952 Star Cal Decal, 1952 Tip Top Bread Labels, 1953-54 Briggs Meat, and other Topps, Bowman, and oddball Mantles.
$49 valued <$20k…and $69 valued <$50k (‘63 Koufax and ‘66 Mays) . It was just a personal preference to have all my collection in the current holders. Total cost is about $2.2k…
With PSA close to town (Dayton, OH)…I saw this as a safe opportunity to submit the 42 cards in person and not risk shipping on my end.
I did not know that PSA accepted cards at shows for reholdering. (Not that I go to many major shows.). I have a lot of vintage cards I’d like to have done but have always been leery of shipping them.
This was at a sports card store (Ohio Card Exchange in Dayton, OH) where only sports cards were accepted for reholdering, grading or review…and then taken back to PSA to process. You must have filled out a submission form prior to dropping off. I had never heard of it too…so I sent an email to PSA confirming the drop off. No onsite processing…
Have dropped off for reholder at The National (had 3 cracked slabs in my collection). You could get them reholdered during the show but that was really expensive so I dropped them off under regular reholder service and they were mailed back to me.
i wish i could reholder my two george brett topps psa 8 rookies.
Beautiful. Anyone who refuses to buy cards with older cert numbers is insane. That's the era when a lot of vintage unopened was still being ripped. Buy the card, not the holder!
Nice. Knowing what we know now, those are probably 7s or 8s if you were to submit today
I disagree. I think it would pass today’s standards for 9s.
Within the last year (with todays grading standards)…I had a 1963 Roger Maris bump from a PSA-8.5 to a PSA-9. This card was in a BVG-9 holder when submitted to PSA for a PSA-8.5. A few years later without the influencing BVG holder grade…it received a bump to its rightful PSA-9.
That’s great. I must get the grader of death on all my subs.
Collectors generally overestimate the cards they submit. I see many examples of overgraded cards in newer flips as well as undergraded ones. The cards posted by the OP are correctly graded in any era.
Collecting 1970s Topps baseball wax, rack and cello packs, as well as PCGS graded Half Cents, Large Cents, Two Cent pieces and Three Cent Silver pieces.
