1976 Topps PSA 8 or better
1961 Pirates Team Set
1972 Pirates Team Set
I will also be looking for 1971 PSA 8s and 1963's. I will also look for any of these years ungraded.
Working on a trade for a T206 Cobb Batt of Shoulder PSA 7 so my trade stock is down.
I will definitely be there. We're coming in Friday and will be there all day Saturday also.

And I think I'll have to get a VIP membership so I can get in 1/2 hour early and beat you to the 75s
I'll probably be wearing my IU cap most of the time. . .red with a big I on it. Yes, I'm an alum and they better beat Utah!

NOTE TO PSA - When the number of submissions increase, it should be that much more crucial to ensure these are on hand. These have been backordered for several weeks - shame on you PSA!!!!!

It did seem like there was a lot of traffic.
I saw only a couple dealers with GAI stuff. Quality Cards out of WI seemed to have the most. I didn't ask about them, but I have a hard time believing the reason for crossing over is strictly one of friendship. The market is just too competitive for that.

Although I am far from even average at grading cards, the cards I saw in Gai holders were mostly 9's and looked very good. Maybe GAI was bumping grades for dealers but it was self evident glancing at the cards. Someone with more experience than me might be able to say otherwise. If I was re-opening a grading company from scratch I would try and offer financial incentives to several of the major dealers for using my company while still maintaining the integrity of the grading. I'm not sure what's happening but it will be interesting to see how it plays out.

Example:
1957 Topps Mantle in PSA 7 (SMR $910.00) crosses over to a GAI 8.
The GAI 8 sells for 50% of the PSA 8 SMR ($2900.00) -- $1450.00
Basically, in the example used above, the crossover allows you to sell a $910.00 card for $1450.00
Yes, but for how long?
