What has been the single best card you have had graded in the last 3 months????? A PSA 10 that you thought was an 8 or something like that? Post pics if you got them..
I think mine was the 1969 Reggie Jackson PSA 8

    Speaking of the Reggie Jackson 8, did you sell it or are you still mulling over your next move?

    As far as personal experience, I bought a group of 20 Jimmy Smith rookies for .99 + shipping a little over a year ago. I sent in about 8 during a $5 grading special, got seven 10's and sold them for an average of $50 or $60 apiece. That was nice. It's not often you get a group of gem mint raw on eBay, or anywhere for that matter.

The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."

    Who would want a Marino/Rice/Emmitt auto? Do people actually collect those guys?

    You must've paid a bundle for them lawn.

    Lawn told me he would cut the Emmitt Favre card in half if I wanted the Favre auto. Nice guy Matt is.

    As for best card I graded, it would have to be a PSA 9 Ron Yary rookie (damn vikings) or a PSA 9 1963 Bob Uecker. The Ueker is not worth much but I found it in a box of football cards. Hell of a find

    I've submitted many , many cards , but there are 3 submissions that I'm very proud of. All 3 are of sets that no one in their right mind would collect, but I do collect them non the less. One is a 1973 Topps Candy lid of Nate Colbert that graded out a 7. Big whipp one might say , but of all 309 Candy lids there have been 2 sevens and 1 nine. This is one of the sevens. Another one is a 1976 Laughlin Diamond Jubilee of Nate Colbert that graded a "10". In this set 15 of 68 cards have come back a 10, but I still love the card anyway. The last one is from the 1993 Ted Williams Co- Locklear set. Its a Babe Ruth graded out as a "10". As soon as I pull it , I knew it was a 10.

    I am very computer retarted and simply lack what it takes to post photos here. The only one that has a findable photo is the 1993 Ruth card which is parked on ebay.

    I scored a 9 on a '76 Reggie Jackson. Pretty pleased with that.

    I sent in a raw 1973 Aaron and it came back as a PSA 9. I also scored a PSA 10 on a 84 Donruss that was a pop 1

    My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)
