Hi Carol,

If your trying to figure out the specials for April, I have lots of 1900-1950 stuff that has not fit into the last two Specials and I think it is now time for the $5 dollar any card any Year, as long as it is under $100 bucks value. I have a bunch that are waiting!!!!!

Thanks Carol!!!

    I agree with this thread. These specials are especially worth while for people with modern cards. For instance, if someone has tony gwynn, boggs, sandberg, maddux, glavine, bonds, canseco, Mcgriff, or mattingly modern day cards, people are probably not going to submit them if you have to pay 10, 9 or 8 dollars each, but with the 4.50 per card special like in March, it would be worth submitting these types of cards.
    Thanks for your help everyone.

    A $5 special sounds great but can we drop the minimum number of cards from 50 to 25 or so? A 50 card order after shipping, etc...adds up to a bit much for my retired mans budget....

    Need to have a 1900-1949 special for $5/50 card minimum and a 1950-present special @ $5 card/50 minimum.

    All this does is squeeze out the small time collector from a good special because of the 50 card minimum. Even if I could afford to compile 50 cards with a $5 fee and shipping, I would struggle to come up with 50 cards worthy of being graded at one time. I do like the "$5" aspect of it though...

    There are plenty of people on this board (myself included) that would gladly let you piggyback a submission.

    ...I even have some tall boys (Mutoscopes) that I will be submitting if someone has some tall boys that they want to sub. SGC murdered some of the ones I subbed to them, so I want to get a 2nd opinion.....

    Wow, that is a very nice offer, and you are right, the people I have met on this board like you two would gladly do that. Thank you for the offer guys, not sure if I need to take you up on it but I appreciate it.

    How do you piggy back? People would have to ship the cards to that one person, and that one person sends it to psa. Then that one person gets all the cards and ships it to each person?

    Thanks for your help everyone.

    That's what I've done in the past a few times for others.
    Looking for rare Randy Moss rookies and autos, as well as '97 PMG Red Football cards for my set.

    How about the little guy,once again PSA is catering to the big sellers and not the collectors of the hobby. I think a $5 - 20 would work for most of the collectors of the hobby who do not make a living selling hunders of cards on ebay every week.

    Find someone on here who will let you add your cards to their submission - we're easy to find. Just post a thread asking to piggyback on a submssion, and you'll get 3-4 offers the same day. It does cost you the extra money to ship to and from this 3rd party, but that's only $15 or so in most cases.

    EDIT: I'm no trying to argue, but I'm always curious about this "Small fry" complaint. I'm only a hobbyist, but I manage to find 50 cards every few months. Besides, if you only have a handful or cards to submit, is it worth the price to join CC anyway?

    No, the big sellers get even better price breaks.
    There have been many recent specials you could have taken advantage of with no minimum quantity, in the $5-6 per card range.

    People who sell hundreds of graded cards per week do not take advantage of the current specials. I am sure they get a better deal than $5

    I kind of wish the ticket special would change from Super Bowl to World Series or all tickets. I have 0 Super Bowl tickets and about 10 World Series tickets to get graded.

    i wish it was any ticket.. i have several tickets that i want to get slabbed.. just because i like the way they look in the psa holder.. but most of them are worthless.. and not worth 20 bucks a ticket..
