    Well I can honostley say that I have never experienced that one before considering im only 15 haha!!!. But I did enjoy reading the grades. Yes im am very happy with these grades considering that the Graham rookie card and the Landry Card are both very prominent card. I was expecting a PSA 6 on the Landrey but I am happy with a 5. This is the story of my first grades.

    thibs,
    Getting your first grades through the mail is like having ice cream for the first time [age appropriate analogy].

    Congrats dude. You don't often find younger collectors interested in old timers, espcially football. Lot's of those I don't even have, and I'm a vintage football collector.

    (Still waiting for my first 6 FREE grades as well)

    How long does it usually take for the first 6 "complimentary" (voucher) submissions? I would think they might want to expedite them, since my future business will depend on their initial service.image

    bow down, initial submission is a 5 day turn-a-round I am pretty sure. This is 5 days from the date PSA enters the submissions into the system

    Next dumb question: Is the DATE RECEIVED the same as when they put it in their system?

    thibs,

    I commend you on submitting some wonderful vintage cards for grading instead of any of that modern stuff.

    This is awesome!

    Getting a younger collector going for the vintage! Trust me, you'll never look at modern cards the same way once you start collecting graded vintage. Are you going to go for a low-mid grade early Bowman set? That'd be awesome! and decently priced too as long as you take your time with it.

    Keep us posted!

    Haha wow you guys kill me!!! No offense at all, but i must say im looking forward to it all. Haha. Umm yes I have many cards from that 50,51 Bowman set but there not all in good condition like these ones. I have to be honest and tell you that I might be selling most of them. I am an antique dealar and try not to get too attached to anything that I buy. My Dad is the real master mind im just the sidekick. I am so pleased with this site though. It has helped me alot. Thibs

    Not now buddy boy! Whether you realize it or not, you are officially hooked; there is no turning back. You will become preoccupied by searching ebay for gems, contacting other antique dealers about cards, busting case upon case of newer stuff. Your PSA submissions will then grow into the hundreds. You will sacrifice that 100 year old corner cupboard for submission funds and raw finds. You will cruise garage sales every chance you get looking for that old cardboard. Face it fella.........your life just changed!
