Hello to all,
Just received my cards today after 2 weeks.Submitted 11 cards (7 not graded) (3 graded 8)(1 oc9) never again a waste of my time. LA to OC +gas,money and then on top of that they gave me the wrong address.I think anyone can get a job at psa no experience necessary.I just don't understand the 2 cards almost identical border front /back the 9oc should of been an 8 and the other a 7 i'll post later for a good laugh & of course for whom ever wishes to give an opinion.Still in shock...

Get used to it until you get a better eye ...

Why were the 7 not graded?

Called growing pains with PSA. Most of us have gone through it until you are good at being objective with your own stuff.

I understand the grading system i just don't understand the graders.you have 2 cards in front of you 1 grades an 8 when it should be a seven or an 8 oc while the other card that graded a 9 oc should of been an 8. I have already taken the pictures, i just don't know how to upload on this thread ... need help with this.

Sounds like you need some help evaluating the condition of your cards as well.

It's not time to make a change,
Just relax, take it easy.
You're still young, that's your fault,
There's so much you have to know.
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.

I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy,
To be calm when you've found something going on.
But take your time, think a lot,
Why, think of everything you've got.
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.

If you plan on submitting to PSA I high suggest you invest (Like I did) in a pair of calipers to measure the card's centering and purchase a 10x loop before you send another submission to PSA. Its really the only way to get PSA 10 Gem Mint cards. Maybe under a 10x loop you can see something PSA saw that your naked eye didnt.

I just went thru 32,000+ cards to find 60 gem mint cards to submit on the last June $5 grading special for my registry set. I am confidant they all will pop up 10s and maybe a few 9s....

You just made me get a cold chill up my spine ... big time! When I started reading this post, "Hard Headed Woman" was finishing up on my CD player.

"Father and Son" started playing right as I was figuring out what your post was all about.

If I would have been reading about 5 seconds slower .... your lyrics would have been in sync with my music.

As I'm typing this, I'm still a little creeped out by that happening. Dude, get out of my head! ;-) lol

BTW - One of my all time favorite CD's!

will do.

i was actually sending that vibe out to a 22 year female yoga instructor who also has an open-minded twin sister. the message must have gotten misdirected in cyberspace.

if you ever watch the HBO series Extras staring Ricky Gervais (the funniest man on the planet in IMO) they close with Tea for the Tillerman, also not a bad ditty by Yusuf Islam.

Just a little trivia I heard him on an interview a few months ago and a lot of his songs were biographical and some were written about conflicts he seemed to have with his father. Wonder what the old man thought when he converted.

I guess the boys in the Taliban aren't getting a lot of value out of listening to Peace Train.
