Stone,
I know you're on this 8.5-step program or whatever, but I think that submitting your 6 or 12 cards to PSA would still be within the confines of your new collecting/spending ethics. If you declared their value very low, you could ship them all back to you for $12 or so.
What cards are you thinking of submitting, and, What say you?
P.S. Does anyone have any suggestions for Stone?

He could post them on his "mail call" thread. Then he can have his pick of what to submit.

GREAT IDEA
I just have to dig them out
Ya don't have to send anything...
Just the thought is a gift!
Now...
Had the 10x loupe out and was looking - I was getting sick at how bad some cards look!
So far the list goes like this:
Ryno RC - 8 or 9.
75T mini Ryan - 8
T206 Davis - 4
1915 CJ Groom - 4
82T Ripken - 8 or 9
78T Dawson - 8 or 9
I'm not much at looking at cards and looking for the best ones - to be honest.
I like them all for what they are - pieces of history.
Well that's it.
thanx for the thoughts
your friend
mike
Grades popped!
I'm more than happy - look at my guess - the only surprise - the Dawson - not an expensive card - must have missed something?

I feel really good!
The 9 on the mini Ryan is off the chart! I was given that card from a guy who shared my table! The two vintage at 6 is thru the roof! The Ryno is good/ok.
thanx for yelling at me to move my dead ass!!!
Great grades. 1975 Topps Mini Ryan in PSA 9? Fabulous! That's a pop 12 and is probably worth a ton of money!
When the cards come home, the scans will go up!!!
I'm a happy guy!
mike
edit: The Ryan card - 470 graded with 11 9s! Now 12. Hope that doesn't cause anyone to slit their wrists or anything!

he might just be sitting on a goldmine of cards?? I would have had a card like that to PSA in no time flat. What else you got
sitting around at home???
Really, congrats on the grades. That is just awesome!!!
shawn
congrats on some superlative grades
such an aptitude for detail... perhaps you might contemplate a late-life career as a psa grader...
keep up the good work & we'll let you continue to submit once every year!
For what it's worth, we all know most people hate cards that are OC. It kills the value.
That being said, a 1975 mini Nolan Ryan PSA 9 OC was snatched up for $175 last week!!!
You'd probably get $500-$600 for your straight nine, more on a good day, less on a bad. (you know how auctions are)
Either way, great card!! And to think it was given to you?? You might wanna buy that guy a beer!!! Better yet, don't tell him.

Did I leave anything out?
Congratulations, those are great grades.
I don't think you gave yourself enough credit when looking at them. Only one was less than expected, the others were on or better.
Great job...

Cards shipped today.
Probably registered which is a slight drag since I doubt I'll see the PO person? Unless they come Fri or Sat.
I will definitely post the pics.
They always look better in the holders!
Now, don't anyone PM me, all at once, for the Dawson 6!
mike
I knew it was a certified package.
On the Dawson 6 - I missed a crease in the ballfield dimension area! Can't see how but that's what happens when you "assume" and concentrate on the corners and obverse gloss!
I'm gonna post the Ryan in the long running thread on the registry channel also.
Thanx for looking and encouraging me to send something in...
I almost didn't!
mike
Great stuff!!!
Congrats on the Ryan. And that Cracker Jack looks like a beauty too!!!
I still can't believe you've been holding on to stuff that good luck when you had free submissions!!!
Better late than never....

edited to say:: Why is that cracker jack only a 6??? The more I stare at it, the better it looks.

Under any loupe, you will find frayed corners not as noticeable on the screen.
And the Ryno:
and the Rip:
I definitely hit the PSA lottery this time!
mike
ALL cards absolutely beautiful!
congrats again... enjoy them

Here's what I missed on the Dawson:
I really can't say how I missed it but the front is a blazer. A scratch/wrinkle at home plate!
If anyone doesn't want to pay big bucks for 9 but wants a card that looks like one, contact me.
mike
Best looking PSA 6 on the planet!

In my opinion, surface wrinkles shouldnt lower a card grade as much as they do.

Thanx for the kind words - everyone.
No - I kind of like the cards loose where I can see and smell them.
