UPDATE:
The 59 Aaron crossed over to an SGC 88, and I am keeping it. I am starting think SGC has more consistent and tougher standards. This card could have been a psa 8.5 or better. BTW the clemente is now a sgc 84 ditto could have been a psa 7.5 or 8 MOO


Won this card from PRE WAR last week. Rollers from the po must have cracked the slab. The card was in two thick cardboard envelopes but: I guess not enough protection. I spoke with Brent at PWWC and he offered (1) a full refund (2) to pay for grading fees to have the card crossover to SCG or PSA. If the card does not cross, I can return it for a refund.

Brent is definitely a class guy, and if I were you I'd pick #2 without question as it is a no lose scenario.

I agree 100% with nam!

Sweet card, and who doesn't love a free grading?

if it crosses then review it because it looks like it could 9

I agree with Nick.---- Get it graded.

love that Boberto - he always makes me think of his ultimate "sacrafice fly" of New Year's Day 1973 ...

R.I.P. Boberto ...

Thank God the card did not get damaged. Were you were gonna crack em out anyway?


That 63 looks awfully sweet.

amazing cards.... nice to see the slabs did their job.

Great cards! I agree Brent is a class act and runs a great auction.
I'd go with # 2 as well if i had to pick.

Good Luck

Whew! Now that's a nightmare!

What a waste if that card was to get damaged

Thank God it survived

I too would go with #2, sure looks it could 9

Oh yeah, Brent's a good guy in my book too

You could also just let him off the hook for damage done in the mail.

Great cards.

How many sellers are going to give you that option?

A bit OT, does anyone know of bluechip cards that were damaged in shipping? I heard of a '54 Topps PSA 9 Ted Williams that was destroyed in the mail but I'm not sure how true that story is. Any other sad stories?

gemint - I know a modern collector who has received a Kobe Topps Chrome rookie PSA 10 and a Ricky Williams SPx rookie BGS 9 (back when that was a hot card) that arrived badly damaged. Not the same price range, but still serious losses.
