"GROUP SUBMISSION III" - POPPAGE!!!

gumbyfan · May 11, 2009 1:52AM

I was going to do this in the next few days since I haven't finished out the last group submission and the next couple days at work are going to be busy with meetings. However, I figured it can't hurt to get the ball rolling right now on the next one since a few of us already have cards to send in. I just won't be able to respond as quickly over the next 2 days. I'll likely get back to everyone to answer questions later this evening and again tomorrow evening.

Anyway...I worked out a deal with Joe last week for the next group submission. I can tell you that this is the best deal we could get...and it's the last time we'll get this price. I pushed for the best price we could get and this is it. I'll say it again...Joe stressed that this is a one-time-only deal. Please don't expect this type of pricing in the future.

Here are the details:

All cards 1956 - Present (that fit in the standard holder)
Declared value of $100 or less
All sports and non-sport
$4.50 per card plus shipping/insurance

I am working on a shipping/insurance pricing platform to make it a little easier than the first group. Nobody has gotten refunds no overpayments yet because it was admittedly a little more difficult than I expected.

I will post the pricing here once I have it set. The signup period will run through June 15...and I need all card in my hands by June 18 so I can get them prepped and ready to send out. If you plan to participate, please think about sending your cards sooner rather than later so that I don't have 2000 cards to go through in the last couple of days.

Also, for my own sanity, please use brand new Card Saver 1's (or Ultra Pro...just make sure they're the larger ones) for your cards. You can choose whether or not to use a poly sleeve inside of the CS1's, but for ease of packaging, it is best for all of the cards to be in similar holders. I hope that's not too much to ask. If thats a problem, PM me I can work with you.

We are not able to include oversize cards in this order. Sorry for any confusion. Only cards that fit in a standard holder are able to be included, so that does include some of the thinner relic cards.

Thanks for all the hard work! I will be slabbing even more crap this time.

bsidegrve · May 11, 2009 2:02AM

Count me in for 20-30

Thanks again Craig for doing this again

CNote · May 11, 2009 2:02AM

Sweet, I'll get to participate in my first Group Sub! <<geeky voice>>

initialD · May 11, 2009 2:05AM

OH carp!! I thought $4.50 wouldn't come back for a bit and I could save some dough up.

I'll have to go thru my 60's run and see how many to sub?

I'm in, just don't know how many this time yet? 100+

Thanks for doing this again Craig

recbball · May 11, 2009 2:07AM

Hi Craig,

I haven't participated in the past group rips, but I will in this one.

Thanks,
Tom

OAKESY25 · May 11, 2009 2:08AM

I will probably have quite a few

Beck6 · May 11, 2009 2:15AM

I am in again! Not sure how many, but probably 20 or so. Thanks for negotiating the great price. The next time I am buying a car I will call you Craig!

kcballboy · May 11, 2009 2:15AM

I'll be in on this one for a few.

Dboneesq · May 11, 2009 2:26AM

Thanks again Craig ... PM sent.

xbaggypants · May 11, 2009 2:27AM

Is there a minimum # of cards we can submit?

Elemenopeo · May 11, 2009 2:29AM

I'll likely be in for 20 or so. Many thanks.

lsutigers1973 · May 11, 2009 2:30AM

<< Thanks for all the hard work! I will be slabbing even more crap this time. >>

Me too! I have a lot of crap I won't sub for $5 but for $4.50 I will.

gumbyfan · May 11, 2009 2:35AM

<< Is there a minimum # of cards we can submit? >>

As a group, I promised a minimum of 2000 cards in order to get this price. I don't think it will be a problem. As for individuals, there is additional shipping cost involved with mailing the cards to me and then me returning the cards to you, so in order to take full advantage of the deal, it would make sense to send in at least a few cards to bring the 'per card' shipping costs down. It's up to you, though. If you want to send in 1 card, I won't say no.

BunchOBull · May 11, 2009 2:41AM

I've got my supplies ready this time, so I'm in. Actually, most cards are already prepped to go. Thanks Craig.

Statman · May 11, 2009 2:46AM

I'll definitely be in on this sub also - probably will send about 50 cards or so, depending on how much time I get to work on it over the next week or so.

MULLINS5 · May 11, 2009 2:48AM

I am in for at least 100...going to start going through them now...

Sorry this is my first group submission and I am not sure how the following works: do you need me to fill out a submission form as if I were sending the cards to PSA, with credit card info and everything?

Thanks!

Patrick

mcolney1 · May 11, 2009 2:49AM

I'm in too. Will PM for your address when I get the cards ready. Thanks, Tony

swartz1 · May 11, 2009 2:55AM

in for 20...

lawnmowerman · May 11, 2009 2:59AM

count me in for about 50-75

EagleEyeKid · May 11, 2009 3:03AM

Not sure how many yet if any.

CrimsonTider · May 11, 2009 3:05AM

If it were not for the group sub threads, my post count would be 11. Believe it or not, I will be participating in "Group Sub III The Attack of Modern Crap". I have some 83 OPC's that are beggin for slappin.

I'M IN!!!!!!!

At least 20, maybe more

CrimsonTider · May 11, 2009 3:06AM

I'd rather slab my cards than slap them, too much Mother's Day single malt

Hi Patrick,

No need to apologize...it's questions like these that remind me about what I meant to say in the first place.

There's no need to fill out a submission form with credit card information or anything. You would send payment to me and I send one large payment to PSA. I will send out all of the payment details in the next few days.

However, those who sent in a list of cards they were submitting proved to be extremely helpful. I will say that anyone who includes a list of what they're sending would save me a lot of time.

mccardguy1 · May 11, 2009 3:16AM

I am in for at least 10

If we can do non sport i will be in for at least 15....Is non sport a possibility????

gumbyfan · May 11, 2009 3:17AM

<< I am in for at least 10

Yep! All sports as well as non-sport are included.

You know you want to Bryan.

EagleEyeKid · May 11, 2009 3:22AM

You know you want to Bryan.

Of course I want to. I'm a miser and hate missing out on deals.
I'll be in Maui on Wed. and returning the following Wed. I'll let you
know by the 25th how many if any....slim pickins right now since I just
sent off 53 on 4/30.

You are a gentleman and a scholar!

TZAHL · May 11, 2009 3:38AM

I'm in Craig! Pry have around 40 or 50. Will have to start looking through those early 80's RCs laying around.

onefasttalon · May 11, 2009 4:28AM

Alrighty, I'll jump in too. I've never participated in a group sub, but what the heck!

I'll check out my stash, but I bet I can add 20-30 to the pile.
I'll start going through things, and anxiously await further instructions!

If I get too anxious, I'll just PM-ya... but I bet you're flooded w/ those already.

Russ

xbaggypants · May 11, 2009 4:41AM

I can send you references if needed.

Thanks for all your work on this!

Absolutely. The more, the merrier.

I'll post more details on the shipping later. I am going to run my shipping idea through the last group sub #'s to see how it would have worked and I'll get back to everyone with an update.
