Next special

incugator · August 27, 2006 4:44AM

In 4 days the people of PSA will decide what the next grading special will be. This post will be dedicated to desired specials. Here are the choices

#1. Pre-War commons
#2. Tall Boys-T'3 Ect
#3. 1948-1953 Cards
#4. Current Special
#5. Modern Special
#6. Other (please share)

On the 31st I will tally all of the Votes and post them as "Desired Message Board Special" You only get one vote so make your choice carefully.

Maybe this will have an effect on the next special.....but probably not.

I'll take the #5 also but make it low carb.

mkg809 · August 27, 2006 6:28AM

Gimme a #1 with onion rings instead of fries.

dontippet · August 27, 2006 6:43AM

I'll take a #5, but biggie size it please.

Carew29 · August 27, 2006 7:09AM

I 'd like a #2 sunny side up!!

Lucky for us, CHARACTER is not a fantasy stat!!

alnavman · August 27, 2006 7:15AM

How about we stop having $5 modern specials for awhile....maybe then PSA could get caught up on the June specials..
Besides it's time to give someone else a shot...#1 Pre War...or how about #2 it's been awhile....or better yet...what about making a $5 special '61-'80 .... BUT 100 card minimum with the $75 max value.

Either way, they have to mix it up alittle.

incugator · August 27, 2006 9:18AM

We need a vote 5STAT.

storm888 · August 27, 2006 9:19AM

Non-Sports

$75.00 maximum value

Minimum 25-Cards

60-Day Turn-Around

$ 5.00 per card

#5, but more limited: 2000 to present. PSA has basically given up the modern card grading market to BGS, and a special like this would help to get them back into play, especially when one of the most popular sets of the year (2006 Bowman Chrome) has just been released. A special like this would help get more new cards into PSA holders.

soycumstance · August 27, 2006 10:05AM

How about a football special to coincide with the start of the NFL. All football cards $5.00, no minimum, 45 day turnaround.

Griffins · August 27, 2006 10:11AM

#1
even better if they vow no condoms in the holders.

JVette · August 27, 2006 1:31PM

#1 please

Gator · August 27, 2006 1:40PM

I'll take a #5, hold the OC, PD and MC.

100% agree here....they need to capture that market back!!

Although, I did just send 150- 2005 Topps Chrome FB and Bowman Chrome FB singles in...

NewJerseyMeatHook · August 27, 2006 2:15PM

#5.

Hold the NM-MT 8's and lower.

Seem to be getting more of those than usual lately.

Boopotts · August 27, 2006 5:15PM

Anything but #5. I already have enough worthless slabs cluttering up my basement, and I don't need to add to them.

Has anyone else noticed that post-1980 PSA 8's and post 1990 PSA 9's seem to breed when you're not looking?

asphaltman76 · August 28, 2006 1:04AM

how about just plain pre-1930 cards in general, $5 per card, no minimum, any card under $10,000, and a 2 day turn around????

RipublicaninMass · August 28, 2006 1:23AM

#1 5$ special. Starting the t205 set

envoy98 · August 28, 2006 2:34AM

Since I already took the plunge and sent in all of my <1954 cards under the $13/5 day special, I could use the #5 modern special again. Have about 100 cards that need to be sent in already.

FRNAllStar · August 28, 2006 2:37AM

Nascar360 · August 28, 2006 2:46AM

I'll take a number 5 and a number 6 (Same as #5 with 5 card minimums).

incugator · August 28, 2006 3:16AM

This is starting to look like a 2 horse race. Your vote can not be counted if you say what you don't like. You must specify what you do like. Thank you.

gonzoa · August 28, 2006 5:58AM

Let me notch one more for #1.
I've been sitting on some prewar commons for a while now.....BUT that $75 value qualifier cannot come to the party.
