Vintage Submission Just Popped - YAY!!!

I just renewed my PSA membership and sent in my 6 free subs - I wanted to submit some lower-grade star tobacco cards this time. I got the email today with the grades......

1 12519296 1911 GOLD BORDER WALTER JOHNSON N/A 2
2 12519297 1911 GOLD BORDER MORDECAI BROWN N/A 4
3 12519298 1911 SWEET CAPORAL CHRISTY MATHEWSON WHITE CAP 4MC
4 12519299 1911 PIEDMONT KITTY BRANSFIELD N/A 7
5 12519300 1911 SWEET CAPORAL JOHNNY EVERS WITH BAT,CHICAGO ON SHIRT 4
6 12519301 1952 TOPPS 1 ANDY PAFKO BLACK BACK 3

Everything was just about what I expected, except I was very happy with the Bransfield, since I'd submitted once before and it came back with "Evidence Trimming". I looked at it 100 times and couldn't figure out what they were talking about, so upon re-submission I got the 7! I thought it had a chance at an 8 if it was graded, but am happy with what I got, esp. seeing there are only 7 graded 7's and 1 PSA 8 out there.

Just wanted to share my excitement!

    Those are good grades all around.
    I am planning on sending in my freebies soon. How long did yours take?

    I'll certainly post a scan or two. I sent the package from MA on 1/8, it was logged on 1/10 and grades popped on 1/19, so not too bad all around....
  • I sent some cards in on a 5 day special on 1/8, logged 1/16, and still sitting as waiting for more information to pop up. I'm a little frustrated with the delays, but its not the end of the world.

    Congrats on the grades!

    I know what you mean Kyle.

    My 5 day special was entered 1/8 and says they were posted 1/15. But I checked them every night and they were not posted until 1/17 (which made it 7 business days) , so I guess they can put whatever dates in that they want to cover their butts.

    Here are my grades:

    LINE # CERT # CARD CARD CO. CARD # CARD NAME VARIETY GRADE
    1 31730548 1910 E91 AMER. CARAMEL J.B. MILLER SET C 3MK
