Crossgrade Opinions

I'm not sure how much you can zoom in on the image. It is higher res than normal.

Any chance this Jordan could 9 with the bottom left corner?

I'm hoping for a 5 on the Waddell. It looks undergraded IMO.

    Are you cracking these out?

    I have never submitted for crossovers, but I would assume that getting them to

    cross and also receive a bump would be an epic feat

    I cannot make out the Jordan clear enough, but that Rickey looks something sharp!

    Nice cards, hope you make out!

    Henderson is now cracked. Looks like a divot top/center of border. Noticeable when tilting to light. Would not have cracked had I noticed that beforehand. image

    Jordan and Waddell will be 'in slab' crossovers.

    Sorry to hear about the Henderson David.



    The Jordan looks good but I agree with the "in holder" eval.



    The lower left corner is the one in question - I'm hoping that it's enough of a corner to keep it an 8 - I blew it up - not bad.

    Jordan came back an 8. It was crossed "in the holder".

    No surprise there. PSA would never give a full grade bump on a card like that. Ever. Plus I think 8 is the correct grade given that one corner shows some wear.
    "My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."

    Agree on the correct grade.
