So I have some cash leftover from family birthday stuff this past weekend. I was thinking of buying a card vending machine, but I can't find one in my price range. So I'm stuck...

Either a 1956 Topps Jackie Robinson or a PSA Gold Membership.

What would you go for? This would be my first membership with PSA.

Thanks!

    depends on how many cards you have that you can grade i guess.
    If i had enough cards, and knew i would be getting more to grade later, id probably go with the membership.

    Although the Jackie Robinson would be tough to pass on as well

    Pulled the trigger on a 1956 Jackie Robinson. So pumped! It's on my bucket list of cards to own. It's a PSA 2, so it was in my price range. Good color and no creases. Corners are a little worn, but everything else looks great. I'll scan once I get it in.

    Congrats on the card! My .02 is that you made the right decision. You can always jump in on a group sub when a nice special comes around. Unless you are subbing enough cards worth >$100 each to get full value out of your "free grades", you will make out better just piggybacking on group subs.

    Totally digging it. That's my favorite Jackie card right there followed by his 1949 bowman.
