How should I submit these cards?

I dont' have scans yet, because I haven't technically received the cards. However, I won 4 solid (PSA 8 quality) vintage Bobby Jones cards. The cards go for about $300 in PSA 7 and about $750 in PSA 8. I also have a bulk submission of about 75 cards (1920's/30's boxing and golf and a few 1951 Parkhurst) that I am ready to submit. These cards are all in the PSA 6 - PSA 8 range. I am most concerned about the grades on the 4 Jones'.

Should I submit with the rest of the cards so they may look slightly higher grade by comparison, or do I pay for 10 day service and submit them on their own and still hope for 8's?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

    First off congratulations on the Jones pickups. I would love to see scans on those!! I believe you should submit the Bobby Jones seperate because of the declared value. I'am not sure though. I never done bulk submissions cause I don't have the patience to wait. If I had four nice Jones cards I would be sending them Express.image

    The cards are what they are, I really doubt that if you submitted them with lesser quality cards that they would get higher grades based on that.

    IMO do you want them graded sooner? If so, then do the 10 day service, if you are not in a rush then submit them in a bulk order.


    My last bulk submission took 6 days for grades to pop.


    And I took a beating with some grades.

    edited to add: Jeremy makes a good point, you may not be able to send them in with the bulk unless you declare them a 7 quality.

    (which in and of itself will not get you PSA 7 at best grades).

    Steve. Six days for the grades to pop on a bulk order? Thats quick! Why I'am I paying $30 dollars a card for express? Doesn't make sense to me now.image

    Jeremy I don't know, last bulk order took over 3 months, law of averages maybe?
