The biggest lesson I've learned in this hobby, and in life, is that if you have a strong conviction, you owe it to yourself to see it through. Don't sell yourself, or your investments, short. Unless the facts change. Then sell it all.

    Good stuff. definitely share some pictures when they get back.

    Were you expecting the PSA 6s? Ive gotten some 6's back in the past where I could have sworn they were 9's or 10's......then I found the tiny wrinkle or something else wrong that merited the low grade.

    +1. Mom pulled the Gem! Love the basketball. I know we all hope for 10's but 9's on those 88 Fleers are pretty strong. Awesome that you slabbed the Ted Williams. Definitely please share some scans when they get in hand.

    I was not, except for the Braddock. When I get them back, I'll look for a surface issue. That is probably it.

    She was so happy to pull an autograph, it was hilarious! She said, "So he really signed this? That's neat."

    Very cool order. Some nice stuff in there for sure.

    The reason why the Jordan Electric Diamond received a 6 was due to surface loss from the holder it sat in for 20+ years. I didn't notice it when I submitted. The 1987 Fleer was just an ugly card, but has sentimental value. Not 100% sure on my memory, but I think it was the first card I ever saved up for and bought myself from Neil Z's Sports Cards in South Florida.

    I'm hoping to get mine graded as well. Based on measurements, I think it has to go in a Tallboy sub. Did you include any set info in the Comments (i.e. URL link to Beckett for the set)?

    I did not, didn't even cross my mind. This is only the second sub I have ever sent in, so I am not very savvy in this area. I'll reach out to PSA and ask. Thanks for the idea!

    No problem. I've had good luck in the past with getting them to recognize sets they've never graded with this method. An email to the general support ahead of time with front/back scans and link/scan of the checklist from a recognized guide can get you the OK before submitting as well.

    I have an update on this! After nearly three months, PSA replied to my email about this card. In short, they said the link to Beckett regarding this card was not enough "proof" for them to consider grading the card. Any ideas?

    Not enough proof? Wow.
    Perhaps it was mentioned in SCD and that would help you?

    I received N9 on my cards & coins also. PSA said they need to be cataloged. Is there a method to get these items cataloged by SCD? If there is, who do I contact?

    The SportzCubz prototypes were listed in the 2011 SCD Standard Catalog with a full checklist... shocked PSA won't grade these. I've seen at least one that Beckett has already graded.

    I'll keep trying. Thanks for the great tips!
