Moving On Up To Number 5

Well got the results for my latest PSA submittal - Got Four 6's, Four 5's and One 4; about what I expected. Added them to my PSA HOW set and it moved me up to number five. The guy at No. 4 is within reach but realistically that's about as high as I can expect to go. There I just need to get another 160 cards graded, which I will as finances permit.
New submittal going out this week - Eight World In Arms Cards and Two very nice high number Home Defense cards.
I was pleased with the turn-around time. Sent the cards in under Vintage Commons (Ten Day ), received 1/13, results posted 1/18.

    Did you pick the cards you got graded off Ebay? Most of the raw stuff that I see on Ebay never looks like it would get near a 5 or 6.

    thanks

  • Only 2 - the 4 and one of the 5's. The rest I bought from card shows and mail order over the years. I've learned real quick that cards I bought as NM (raw) are only VG/Ex to Ex/Nm at best. I'm not going to stress about it since I paid about 3 to 4 dollars a card and they were the best out there at the card shows I attended.
    Well I still have about 200 Horrors of War Cards, 25 World In Arms Cards & 137 Uncle Sam/ Home Defense Cards I want to have graded - based on what I've seen so far I'd say 5% will be 2 or 3's, 20% will be 4's, 60% will be 5's and 15% will be 6's with maybe a stray 7 somewhere.
    Well joining PSA has been a real eye opener for me, but having fun getting my cards graded and building my PSA set registry. Now If only I can get PSA to add the Uncle Sam/Home Defense set.

    Why don't you just ask them to? I checked the Set Request list and this isn't on there; unless you made the request recently and it hasn't made the list yet. Go to the set registry home page and click on Set Request.

    Joe requested just the other day for some non sport input. Email him about it. He does reply to these requests.

    Good for you.
  • Getting my first group of Uncle Sam cards graded, then I'll put in the set request (Don't have any Graded Uncle Sam cards yet). Thanks everyone.
