First Submission results

Order# 4000381

Pretty much what I had hoped for.

The oddest thing is that i thought the 1979 Carew #300 was the sharpest of the bunch.
I must have been damaged in some way. I could not find a flaw on it?

Oh well.





Loves me some shiny!

    Carew4Me:

    When you get your submission back -- lot for a tiny, hard-to-perceive surface crease or wrinkle on the back of the card. You may have to angle the card and hold it up to a bright light to find this crease/wrinkle. 99% of the time when you have a card that you think will PSA 9 -- but it gets a PSA 5, this is what happens. Viewing the cards in a normal way (face down, with bright light), you will miss it almost every time. I have about five or six otherwise perfect Mike Schmidt cards that fit this category.
    I am actively buying MIKE SCHMIDT gem mint baseball cards. Also looking for any 19th century cabinets of Philadephia Nationals. Please PM with additional details.
  • Hey Randall,

    That is an excellent invoice -- 36% 9s on your first try from some tough sets. The '72 Topps FB Mike McCoy PSA 9 is especially impressive -- the only 9 with no 10s (only one 8 out there as well) -- with 25 collectors of this set on the Registry you could probably trade it for a slew of high-grade Packers!
