Thoughts on crossover?

So I'm new to submitting to PSA. I've been a lurker on here for quite a while and also plan on taking part of the next group break.
That being said, I want to crack and sub or crossover the following cards.
What are your thoughts on these coming back as a 10?
Thank you in advance.

    When I see gem mint BGS cards that have surface grades of 9 (which both of yours do), the first thing that always pops into my head is that the cards were cut from a sheet. My opinion is that you will have problems crossing them to PSA 10.

    I've thought the same thing about the surface grade of 9. I'm sure that's the most overlooked area when collectors submit cards.

    Surface grade being a 9 means little to me when looking at a BGS card.. some years ago I was grading a 88 fleer bk set with BGS and out of 65 gem mints I had (self subbed) almost all had 9 for surface...

    One tiny print dot = 9 surface

    more than one = 8.5 surface..

    Crossovers are a joke imo.. no matter who you're sending them too..

    I've actually handled alot of BGS cards so this is not hear say..
