This is what I get for rushing out a sub and not using my 10x loope...

twiley

Well I rushed to hit the end of April $4.50 Special before May came and didn't have time to use my 10x loope. Over all not bad. Still I shoulda just waited until I had enough gems then sent in a sub. Still my eyes are bad w/o it I guess....

I can't complain being I didn't take my time and I rushed to the get the order out. Well the next one I send in will be all triple checked LOL. I should know better. It is not like this is my first sub

detroitfan2

You do realize "10" is the highest grade you can receive don't you?

I opened this hoping to see some PSA 5's from the 50's that look like 8's. Instead it's all 9's and 10's!

Awesome sub, and awesome Jeter set registry. I always envy you guys who are focused.

epatmythes

You certainly did better than I did with my Pujols sub for the deadline... and I did use my 10x Loupe!!! I subbed 46 Pujols cards... fully believing I had 39 no-brainer 10's and 7 cards that would hit 8-to-9 (but needed them fill holes in my registry set, and no more time before the deadline). In all my subs over the last year, I've hit 80% or better on what I thought were 10's...

Not even 50% with this sub, couldn't believe it! The break down of the 46:

19 - 10's
15 - 9's
6 - 8.5's
5 - 8's
1 - Min Size Req

Overall, it was still a pretty good sub... should have been better... and by far my worse to date!

Over all I am happy with the grades. I just wish I had more time LOL. I am bummed on the 2002 and 2005 topps chrome cards. I need those in Gem Mint holders.

I do have another 2003 McDonalds card but will check it over and over before submitting. Make sure there is no happy meal sauces on it I think that PSA 5 I am gonna crack but not resub. I will add it to a raw team set of those mickey d's cards I been putting together.

On my next sub I will do some Pujols cards too. Next time I will use my loope and I will probably have a better percentage of PSA 10s too.

I would really like my rushed March special sub to pop!!! Here's to Friday poppage!!

jeffcbay

It's only been 30 calendar days for my April sub, and it's driving me INSANE!! I know I shouldn't expect it this soon, but I just can't help it. I've submitted 25 orders in the last 5 years, and it's only taken this long two other times. It's a 118-card, four-sport sub, so I imagine it's going to take longer. PLEASE-O-PLEASE POP TODAY!! I'm renewing my platinum subscription today, so maybe that will jar it loose! lol

minnesotahusker

It's been 43 calendar days since they logged my order. Stop the insanity!!! I am getting no work done as I check for poppage every 10 minutes. My boss implores with you...make my sub pop so I can get some work done!!
