Hoping for Poppage today - Grades In!!

Sent in two Salutation exhibits - Williams no #9 and Gehrig on a two day and the sub was logged 11/12. Not being really familiar with Exhibit grading (although I hear its tuff) I am picturing anything from 5's to 8's. Needless to say, the is a significant $$$ swing. image


AAAAAARRRGGGGGGGHH!!!

    Disappointing, really thought some higher grades were in the making, but I know these are tough cards. I will have to examine them and try to learn something.

    On the bright side, assuming you purchased raw, at least they didn't come back below 5 or as altered.

    I'm curious to see what they look like. If you don't mind, please post scans and thanks in advance.

    So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts

    I will post scans to get some input. My assumption is that corner wear, although less in relation and noticeable to the size of the card, is still evaluated on the absolute wear.
