Thought I'd share -
Got lucky with a raw lot on ebay. All but three were nice enough to sub.
I had a checklist too, but it was creased
Wasn't sure what to make of the Wilkens - it looked smaller than the others but thought I'd send it in anyway

  • Hi Matt,

    Considering only 28 out of 21,355 '69 Topps Basketball cards graded by PSA were given a PSA 10, I'd say you did great with all those 9s!

    Cha-Ching on the Goodrich, Lucas and West cards!!!!

    Great looking sub ... Congrats!

    This was a raw lot where they were all centered well? I'm not sure you could find 39 ungraded 69's anywhere on the planet and submit them for grading and do this good. The reason I said centered well is because of how high the grades are. I've went through hundreds of these that were not centered very well. I'm going to say this: for buying 39 raw cards on EBAY and submitting 36 of them and they receive these grades "This is the best submission I have ever seen from top to bottom. This sub is worth alot of money. Does anyone else agree that this is rare how high the grades are for 39 random raw cards?
  • This is a ridiculous sub. Seriously, nice going.

    I also sold some of the nicer duplicates on ebay raw (probably should have subbed those too)
    The centering was really good throughout the lot.
    Here is the original auction I won:

    Oh yeah, the Elvin Hayes had a crease, too
    And the Connie Hawkins had a bend

    Is it because I am a jerk that I am kind of sick to my stomach?

    Absolutely fantastic submission! What are your plans for them?

    Those HOF PSA 9 RC's are terrific!
    I am buying and trading for RC's of Wilt Chamberlain, George Mikan, Bill Russell, Oscar Robertson, Jerry West, and Bob Cousy!
    Don't waste your time and fees listing on ebay before getting in touch me by PM or at gregmo32@aol.com !
  • WOW.. THAT IS INCREDIBLE... and yes i did bid on that item but glad you did and you got super lucky.. i have subbed well over 600 cards and only got 6-7 9's.....have both psa and sgc but sgc was real tough on the centering on these and had a load that did not make the min requirements i wanted {7's}, but do have alot of psa that got 7's that i wondered how, but anyway, the point is that you have done great with that lot.. the goodrich should pay for the whole shebang and the grading fees.. that is super rare to get that many great cards at once, let alone in a year lol.. congrats again, ivan
    always looking for 1969 graded basketball
