    Kevin,

    When the grades pop on these, are you planning on posting what everyone got? I would love to see that, although 2600 cards may be a major pain.

    I'll send out an email and poll the group and see if everyone is alright with that. Some people might want that private so I would need to find out first.

    Here is a bump for unpaid orders:

    All orders have been paid!

    If you still haven't paid, please put a check in the mail so I can get this packaged up and send the information on paying for the shipping to PSA. I am going to a training class all day every day from October 29th - November 2nd and my son is scheduled for delivery on November 8th so I need to keep this moving so it doesn't start to clash with those things.

    Thanks,

    Kevin,
    You are very kind to do organize this as it is a pain to fill out an invoice of 100 cards. Forget about the time it would take for a 2600 card submission. I noticed that you started this thread back on August 10, 2012 and the cards are still sitting in your home. Your patience and hard work should be commended.

    I've really enjoyed it. I've seen all kinds of cards. It's very interesting to see what other people collect. Assuming everyone pays, and I imagine they will, it is actually more like a 2,900 card submission. It's quite impressive.

    I only looked in one box. I didn't want to risk getting them out of order and messing up the line numbers on your list. I did look in one box though since I couldn't resist and carefully put them back in the same order. I think I'm going to put together a box for PSA this weekend of the majority of the stuff that has been paid for. Then I can start collecting the shipping on that box at least. There will have to be 2 boxes since I can't send everything in one box and the insurance required is more than the Post Office even offers on a single box! I need to find out from PSA if they can be sent a bit apart so I can go ahead and send one if possible.

    kevin,

    no need to worry about the order. psa will change it up anyway. i would assume my normal 10% mechanical error rate as usual as well, with some of the cards in the completely wrong holders and others just labeled incorrectly. after all i know nothing about favre cards!!

    Current rough plan for shipment assuming final payment comes in this week:

    1) Take boxes to Post Office Saturday 10/27 for quote. This has to occur on Saturday 10/27 or earlier or it can't happen again until the following Saturday 11/3 due to a training class I am in all week. I will not have the ability to go to the Post Office at all during this week. The final payment is holding this up at this point.
    2) Send PayPal invoices to people Saturday/Sunday for shipping to PSA
    3) 10/27 - 11/4 collect PayPal money from everyone. Can't ship any boxes until all money is collected.
    4) Ship packages 11/5 - 11/7 or earlier. Depends on when all the money is collected.

    My wife and I are having a baby on the 8th so if this pushes into that, I can't guarantee what my ability will be to get to the Post Office quickly. I will update this thread with what is going on though. This plan should work if everyone can be diligent about getting their payment in between 10/27 - 11/4 and I receive the final payment for orders no later than Friday of this week.

    If we push into the 8th for whatever reason, please be patient if I don't immediately respond. I haven't gone anywhere. I just may not have the availability I usually have or may be at the hospital.

    Thanks,
    Kevin

    I think the payment should arrive sometime this week. It was sent recently. I just can't seal up the box and get it all ready until I get it.

    I packed up one box tonight with 20 orders. I'll take that to the Post Office tomorrow for a quote and should have shipping amounts for everyone either tomorrow or Friday. I will send an email to the people with orders in the first box. I can't ship until everyone pays, so keep an eye on this thread and watch your email.

    NOTE: There is no need for PayPal Gift payments. The PayPal fees have been factored into the total and any overage will be refunded if you use PayPal Gift.

    Here are the amounts each person owes for box #1:

    54topps $10.59
    AISAVDBBALLINPHILLY $8.10
    alifaxwa2 $5.79
    eagles33 $8.03
    gopherfan $10.27
    jcc6252 $6.06
    JHS5120 $7.28
    jrboles $7.00
    jtdeible $11.79
    letsgocapitals $7.87
    Littletweed $17.01
    mike1297 $5.73
    MrG $16.19
    oddity $6.86
    pdub1819 $6.89
    schapko $9.81
    Statman $6.82
    thedutymon $10.45
    trapperlad $12.67
    tribefan4ever $38.45

    How amounts were calculated:
    Insurance was based on the insurance you requested as a percentage of the total multiplied by the cost of insurance
    Shipping was based on the number of cards you submitted as a percentage of the total multiplied by the cost of shipping
    The cost of a membership was divided 24 ways and added to each total ($117.26 [includes tax]/24 people) = $4.89 / person

    People will be able to continue to submit on that membership. I will send out an email on how we can do that.
    Please submit payment to "kevin dot oconnor at calripkenjr dot net" replacing the "dot" with "." and the "at" with "@"

    I have to ship both boxes together so they arrive pretty close together. That's what PSA's instructions were. I will be packing up the remaining box and should have a quote either Saturday or first thing Monday for that one. Hopefully, I should have both boxes in the mail sometime next week.

    I will be putting together box #2 this weekend for a quote on Monday. We only have a few people submitting in that box so it should be quick collecting the money for shipment. I won't be able to get a quote out to people until after work so look for it Monday evening in your email.

    The following people are in box #2 and will receive an email Monday evening from me (possibly sooner):
    carkim
    Farmkidd
    jradke4

    If you can pay Monday night, or even Tuesday morning, I can get the boxes in the mail on Tuesday.

    I appreciate everyone's participation in this group submission.

    Well it has turned out to be a complete blessing in disguise that I hadn't mailed box #1 yet because some jerk got my credit card # and charged up $10,000 worth of crap from woot.com on it and now it has been closed. A couple people paid me via PayPal and I used that card to pay for their orders so I'll need to open up the box and change out the credit card I used on the forms for them. I'll be packing up both boxes either tonight or tomorrow and will have a quote out on Monday.

    I will have a quote today for it. I'll see how long it takes to collect the money. I wouldn't think it would be more than a couple days. For the last box all 20 people paid within 2-3 days. I appreciate the offer, and if anyone hasn't paid in a couple days, I may take you up on it and collect from them after it is shipped. We have just 3 people to collect from.

    The quote for box #2 has been posted to the front page. Please check your email and PM.

    The email I sent is reproduced below:

    Here are the amounts each person owes for box #2:

    PAID - carkim $16.34
    PAID - Farmkidd $10.38
    PAID - jradke4 $69.97

    How amounts were calculated:
    Insurance was based on the insurance you requested as a percentage of the total multiplied by the cost of insurance
    Shipping was based on the number of cards you submitted as a percentage of the total multiple by the cost of shipping
    The cost of a membership was divided 24 ways and added to each total ($117.26 [includes tax]/24 people) = $4.89 / person

    People will be able to continue to submit on that membership. I will send out an email on how we can do that.
    Please submit payment to "kevin dot oconnor at calripkenjr dot net" replacing the "dot" with "." and "at" with "@".

    How many total cards were sent to you? Can you take a picture and post what the size of the two boxes look like?
  • Options
    Here are some statistics:

    Cards submitted: 2,888 cards
    Total insured value shipped to PSA: $36,458.40
    Total insured value shipped from PSA back to us: $40,752.50
    Total grading fees: $12,996.00
    Total shipping costs from PSA to us: $1,199.35
    Number of participants: 24 people
    Total cost savings: 2,888 * ($5.25-$4.50) = $2,166.00 + $110 membership fees / person

    I'll try to take a picture right before I send the cards when I get to the Post Office.
