Time to talk about October Grading Specials!

glossycrazy

Howdy!
What is everyone hoping for this month??? I would be up for some sort of coin grading special! I have a nice pile of '71 topps coins that could go in and maybe some '65 old london coins!! Most grading specials seem to exclude coins, pins, etc.. Maybe this month!!

Since everyone had their needs met over the last two months, should be interesting to see what PSA will do---Graded Packs?

There's no such thing as October

I just posted this the the main forum, then I saw this thread, so I'll copy/paste...

I would like to see a special that includes cards after 1992, it seems like all the modern specials have gone from 1972-92 and since 1981 was a year that the BB card market dramatically changed, it seems like 1981-2004 would 'fit'. Any thoughts?

C'mon, after Sundays game I need some cards to get ready for submission to keep my mind off the Jets! I'll break down a 1985 Topps Tiffany set (maybe a 1998 Topps Diamondback Innaugural Factory set too, if interest exists) in this forum with scans if we rally for this special. Cool?

I believe what we all want to see is a fast turn around special that includes our favorite sets. Certainly I have my favorites in the great MOSH chase.
What I propose is cards for any set YOU have registered with a ten day turn. That would include everybody and get the cards back so we can brag in a few weeks as to our great last minute additions.

Haven't most of us gotten fast turn arounds (<10 days) on the all of the specials the 3 months?

I'm ready for another 60-72 $5 special.

Actually that wouldn't include everybody and they know better. They want to grade cards first and encourage using the registry second. I don't think that they would put the 2nd intrest above the first, its just a bad business model.

I am guessing we will see another 72-92 $5 special and I think that is where #'s wise, the bulk of registered sets lay. JMO I could be wrong.

I agree - I've cleared out a lot of my pre 93 cards. I'd like a post 92 special for my Marino sets!!!

I have never completely understood this statement. Are there any cards in the 70s that are not under $500 in raw or PSA 6?
