Group crossover sub is ON (POPPAGE as of 11/22)

I've accumulated a few SGC cards that I need to crossover to PSA. I am interested in organizing a group crossover sub if others are interested to help alleviate the burden of PSA's onerous shipping charges. I can organize or I'm happy if someone else wants to organize also. Either way.

I am leaving for vacation tomorrow and will be back next Friday (8/19), so if you PM me and I'm slow to respond, its because I'm checking CU sporadically next week. Thanks.

I will give the board another week to see if we can get to 50 cards. We are already at 35, so I am really hoping we can make it. PM me if you have questions.

<< <i>Here are the preliminary details: Crossovers are allowed in the August special. If we get to 50 cards, they will be only $5 per card. Only cards that will fit into a normal size PSA slab are allowed (no tallboys), and only cards with declared values of $100 or less are allowed.

I will ask this to the board instead of a PM.
What does "declared value" mean? Is this just for insurance purposes? For example, three of the cards I was hoping to submit are:
Wilt Chamberlin rookie BVG Authentic. I actually cracked this out of a BCCG 6.
Ernie Banks rookie BVG 1.5 -- raw purchase
Jackie Robinson Leaf rookie BVG Authentic -- raw purchase
In addition, I would like to cross my BVG Clemente rookie from it's 3.5 case to PSA
Collectors Club Special #2
$5 per Card – 50 Card Minimum Quantity Required
For Sports & Non Sports Cards - 1964 thru Present - Valued Under $100 each.
This special is for cards valued under $100 each. The turnaround time is approximately 45 Business Days.
Regular sized cards only for this submission.
Hurry! All orders must be postmarked between 08/01/2011 - 08/31/2011

The answer to your question is....there is no answer; because the answer seems to change from one person to the other. A raw NM-MT Claude Raymond from 71 would be like $10; but in reality that bad boy is like $1000. It is supposed to be for insurance purposes only from what I understand. If the grading is truly 100% anonymous and without any form of bias then you can send your whole high # run of 52 topps in NM-MT condition in a bulk sub. I've tried to send in higher dollar cards in on bulk subs and honestly the results are not good. Many EOT and minimum size. I believe red flags are raised at CS. My advice is your Clemente rookie would not be a good choice for a bulk sub; but per the declared value send it in and declare at $99 along with the 52 Mantle.

<< <i>Declared value and actual value are two different things. Most bulk subs are based upon actual value, or realized value once slabbed in X condition. Hence, a Claude Raymond might be a bulk common in PSA 6, but not be applicable for a bulk sub as a PSA 8. Trying to drop in a bunch of higher actual value cards may get the order flagged, delayed and repriced... >>
Good point, Scott. Thx. I think there is probably some leeway here, because no 2 people put the same value on any card, but lets try not to push the envelope TOOOO far.

I sent you an updated PM regarding shipment.

<< <i>Regarding the declared value issue. The card I want to submit is probably around $500 in SMR. Do you think this will cause issues? I don't want to screw it up for the group. >>
I will check with Carol and get an answer on this. If there is a risk that it will screw up the order for everyone else, we'll put a hard $100 cap on what can be submitted. I think the answer is going to be that the $ only relates to the insurance proceeds you'll get if the package gets lost in the mail or destroyed by PSA. Will let you know.
Always buying Bobby Cox inserts. PM me.
Shipping costs to and from PSA will be allocated to the group based on the # of cards that you submit. Shipping costs from me directly to you will be whatever it cost me at USPS to mail you the cards. I will send you a separate PM with how much you owe me for grading costs and shipping costs. I am going to pay everything out of pocket on the front end and will ask that you pay me via paypal gift AFTER the cards have arrived back to me and I've determined the actual cost of shipping you your cards. PM me with any questions.
Reminder of rules:
1) No tall boys. This is only for cards that will fit into PSA's standard slab.
2) 1964 through present.
3) Value of card at or around $100 or less. Yes value is subjective, but for now don't send me anything that you think really could be worth much more than about $150. Even if Carol comes back and says higher value cards are OK, I want this transaction to be smooth, so lets leave out the high dollar stuff for the benefit of the group.
4) This sub is for Crossovers only. This is not a Review sub. PSA doesn't allow you to mix Crossovers and Reviews.
5) Your cost will be $5 per card plus an allocation of shipping/handling charges to be determined later.
I am not capping the # of cards to submit, so if you still have a few that you want to add, please send me a PM.

<< <i>Although most of you that I've spoken with are planning to have your cards crossover to PSA slabs regardless of grade, there is an option by which you can provide a "minimum grade" for your card. If PSA decides your card would not meet your stated "minimum grade" then they'll return the card in your original slab. If you want to use this option, please send me a PM with the card and minimum grade description. Note that you still pay the fee, even if it doesn't cross to a PSA slab. >>
My cards are going out Monday via priority mail. I need to make a few changes due to the value cap.
I do want to put min grade on mine (probably 1/2 point below current). I know I am being a pain in the ass but can I ask for no qualifiers on mine?
I've gone through the packages that have arrived to date, and I have everyone's cards except for 3 of you. I've noted on the introductory post whose cards that I've received. Plan is to send out Saturday, so pls PM me and let me know that your cards are in the mail if you aren't already labeled as "RECEIVED"

I am very happy that my 2003 McCann Topps Traded Xfractor crossed to a PSA 9. It was previously BGS 9, but I was worried it might end up in a PSA 8.
My big loss was a '91 Desert Shield Jeff Blauser that got the old minimum size requirment. It was previously in an SGC 96. LOL...
