Vending OPC cards.......

Hockeybonkers99

I want to submit a bunch of vending 80's OPC hockey I have put away, I have compared these to "sheet cut bgs 9.5 cards ( rookies such as Oates, Robataille etc) " and they are very similar...

I personally helped open the vending case years ago, and these cards are as close to gems as you will get from OPC.

I just hope that they dont come back "evidence of trimming" or "tampered with" . I sorted through and picked out the best one's. (easily all 9's and 10's) they are mostly commons I need for some Registry sets I want to go for.

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks

Thought A: I think you'll be all right on '87 OPC's, which I guess these are since you're talking about Oates and Robataille RC's. The cuts on '87s are certainly not consistently perfect, but they're generally cleaner than some of O-Pee-Chee's earlier efforts.

Thought B: Never assume that your submissions are easily all 9's and 10's. In my limited experience, it doesn't usually work out that way.

HB,
Don't be shy.
I've submitted a ton of 88 OPC's (shown on my registry set) from vending.
Never had any problems. A few 10's, a lot of 9's, and few 8's. Have 2 or 3 copies of each card from that
set also waiting to be slabbed. Good luck!
Worst that could happen you get your grading fee back.

Yes I believe he is. I am in the market for 1980 and 85 OPC Raw. And will also look at 1981 and 1986. Let me know what you have.
