    I just mailed a March special sub. on the 31st. However, I'm still waiting on a bulk sub. they received Feb. 21st

    Still waiting on a 40-card order that they checked in on March 14th. I was more impatient during the first couple weeks than I am now, but Im still chompin at the bit to get those back. Some 82 topps, 82 OPC, 79 topps, 78 topps s. carlton. The '82s wil go into my set on the registry, and the others I havent decided yet. There was an 82 OPC Pete Rose that I thought was superb, but you know how that goes. We'll see.

    My submission got logged on the 29th, got grades on the 31st! On the $5 special! Crazy!
  • JonBJonB Posts: 495 ✭
    hearing that really hacks me off... you get your march special back in 2 days and I'm having to wait over a month for a bulk submission of over 100 cards.... GRRR

    For those that got grades can you post the cards/grades, even better the invoice number and zip code?

    I don't know what happened to the Bonds I thought it was a 9. 8 min.
  • imafishinnutimafishinnut Posts: 251 ✭
    Endo33,

    My bet is that you probably missed a surface wrinkle in the Bonds. I sent in a 1985 Donruss Ryan that I thought was a sure PSA 9 and it came by a PSA 5. When I got the card back, there was a surface wrinkle that I missed. The black borders seem to hide the surface wrinkles more than other borders in my opinion.

    I'm sure your right about the Bonds. Busted some rack packs and pulled it. I looked at it quick without looking for wrinkles.

    I am happy to get an 8 on the 84 Clemens and a 10 on the Boggs Rc. So I can't complain.

    I just received mine today and they were logged in on March 30th! I am still shocked at the speed. Usually with my submissions, it seems mine are thrown in a corner to sit for at least a month and a half. Not this time and, to say the least, I am quite pleased! Here are my grades:

    Overall, I am pleased about the grades and they are about what I expected. I missed on a few (the stain on the Mattingly and the 5 on the 79 Schmidt) but that seems to always happen with me. My two tens (which I expect to sell) together with the 77 PSA 9 Rose cloth sticker should more than pay for my submission. That is all I can ask.

    PSA received mine yesterday and I mailed on the 30th. So hopefully only have to wait about 5 days for the grades to post maybe by Friday or Monday????image

    Mine were received March 31 and were sent along with my free 6 card membership submission. I haven't received any grades as of yet on either lot.

    I'm giddy about the OPC Palmer ('76 OPCs are tough to find nice). Same with the 82 OPC Rose in a 10. I knew it was a sweet card, and im glad PSA agreed with me. The 79 Topps was more of an experiment, and I ended up with a 10 there too. The 82s are for my set.

    In 21 1982 Topps cards that I sent in, I got 4 10s, 16 9s, and one 8. Not too shabby. Quite a few of these will be for sale (Only a couple of the 82s)

    Just got my grades for my large March special submission (51 total cards). I am surprised those cards were graded before my freebie initial 6 card submission. Anyway, the highlights were as follows:

    2 1980 Topps Henderson cards - 9
    2 1972 Topps high number cards received 10's
    1975 Topps Carter Rookie - 9
    In total I submitted 28 1972 high number cards and got 15 9's and 2 10's
    I also received a 9 on a 1972 Luzinski card

    All in all I feel the grading was quite fair although I wonder how a few of the cards received lower grades than expected.

    Hey Jon,

    My March Special got logged in on March 29th and it was delivered to my house yesterday. My Bulk submission was also logged in on March 29th and I have grades already, just don't ask me if I like the grades because I might type something I'll regret.

    Cooper, did you expect to get the OC on the 82 Ripken? When I was getting cards ready to send in I busted some 82 D rack packs and got 2 offcenter Ripkens. I then went to see how my other ones looked and sure enough I had 2 more off center Donruss Ripkens.. Does anybody know if this is the norm on this card?

    I was expecting 9 NQ on both the 82 and 84 donruss Ripkens. I also expected to get 7's on the 77 Ryan and 73 HR leader cards. Also expected a 7 on the 72 Reggie. But oh well. added some of them to my MVP baseball registry set. Will have to find better grades tho to bring my average back up close to 9.

    I have to admit I enjoy looking at the results of everyone's submissions. Keep them coming!
