PSA Promotion Idea

I just had a thought for PSA that might be a good promotion idea and create some interest and fun for the PSA submitters and regular contributors on this board.

What if PSA offered a "Free Grade" with any submission. But set up some ground rule or theme for the card to be submitted. Here are a couple ideas...

1. During an election year, submit up to one president card (or candidate) from any generation with your PSA order and have it graded and slabbed for free. One per submission.

2. Disco Month, Submit any non-HOF player card form the 1972 Topps set and have it graded and slabbed for free. One per submission.

3. When Prince Charles takes the throne some day, Submit any Sacramento Kings, KC Royals, LA Kings, or Detroit Lions and have it graded and slabbed for free. One per submission.

This would encourage submissions and folks on the forum could post scans and compare their freebies on this forum. Anyone else have suggestions?

    Suggestions? I suggest you sell the combine, leave that Kansas farm in the rear-view mirror and head west to Newport Beach. This is the type of original thinking that PSA could use. image

    Disco would have to be Danny Ford, or any players that were scheduled to play on the legendary "Disco Demolition Night".

    after the health care gets strong armed and put into law in a way that would make tony soprano proud any dr. j card would get graded for free.

    the only caveat is that the submitter would have to give the card to the government so they could auction it off to pay for the boondoggle of government health care.

    How about one per submission of players on their birthdays. So, for example, if your submission is postmarked August 12th, you can submit your George McGinnis for free.

    PINK FLOYD-SHEEP-Harmlessly passing your time in the grassland away;Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air.You better watch out,There may be dogs about.I've looked over Jordan and I have seen Things are not what they seem.What do you get for pretending the danger's not real.Meek and obedient you follow the leader Down well trodden corridors into the valley of steel.What a surprize !A look of terminal shock in your eyes.Now things are really what they seem .No,this is not a bad dream.

    sonny,
    will you have room for your cards in you bomb shelter or will the rest of the family have to fend for themselves?image
