New Guy saying Hi!

Hey! I thought everyone would like a funny story of how the newbie screwed up his first PSA submission! I sent in my "freebies" February 1st and they were delivered to PSA February 7th. My submission never showed up on PSA's status check, so I called and inquried about it. I found out..." My submission was sitting on the problem order shelf"! One of my submissions was a T201 Mecca Double Folder, and I didn't realize that constituted a "Tall Boy" submission. I was familiar with how Tall Boys are handled differently, but never knew of a list of cards that pertains to Tall Boys.

Anyhow, everthing was supposedly cleared up Friday, but my cards are still not showing up in their status check.

Let the good natured ribbing begin!

    I almost screwed up real bad.... I was getting an order together to let my wife take to the post office. I taped it up, everything was looking great. I was leaving for work after she had took the box and noticed the submission form laying next to the computer, still all together. Needless to say I caught her before she dropped it off..

    Yup. I once left the last page of my submission in my copier. Rather than tear apart the package I had just sealed in brown tape, I sent the page in a separate envelope. PSA handled it, no problem.

    Welcome aboard. If it makes you feel any better, I'm still confused about the tall boy policy after 2 years. Why would it be any different? Can extra plastic really cost PSA that much?

    mudflap: $$$ for extra shipping/handling/insurance?

    probably not much more, but think about the overhead involved in grading "star cards" as opposed to "commons"!
