Just got my most recent sub back UPDATED 12-1-17

erikthredd

I recently used 11 of my 15 platinum club membership submissions and just got these back from PSA.
This was my first Jordan ever that graded a PSA 10. I was hoping for a 9 and its great i got a 10. I already sold it and this card alone paid for my Platinum Club Membership so very happy there.

I was hoping for an 8 or 9 on these two so pretty happy getting back 8's on both. PSA has only graded 8 of this 88 Italian No Soccer player variation with just two 8's & one 9 in the Pop Report.


Was hoping for a 6 or 7 on this 87 Merchante so pretty happy with this one as well.

I'm ecstatic over these two Basket 16's. Their both the first ever graded by PSA so pretty cool ihave a couple of 1/1's for now.

These two were the biggest head scratchers for me.
This 87 Panini Supersport i cracked from a BGS 9 right before submitting and nothing stands out why it didn't come back at least an 8.


This 88 Panini didn't have the bright white borders as other copies of the same sticker.

These three came back as two N9's & an N8: Miscut
This 1986-87 Spanish Super Canasta sticker wasn't in the Pop report so i knew it was gonna be a gamble coming back graded.

The grader left a message saying the back fell off this 89 Gigantes. Turns out it was an album cut that i missed before submitting.

This Basket 16 came back Miscut. I didn't check the No qualifiers box hoping that it would at least get slabbed but didn't happen.

Overall I'm very happy with the order.

I haven't done a lot of stickers, but if I get a 6 on a card I thought should be a 9, it's time to check the back for a tiny surface wrinkle. If it's a 5, check the front.

I don't own a loupe but i spent a good amount of time poring over the Supersport with a magnifying glass before & after cracking it then again today and couldn't find anything. Looks like i have a really nice 6 now.

That's quite an assortment of Jordans Eric.

Overall really good grades too.

I'm a big fan of Entenmann's products. Superb card too!

Don't forget those NO Holder cards you get another free grading for as replacement from your platinum membership voucher. (you can reuse for those)

Nice group. Always enjoy seeing Jordan's.

The Supersport on the reverse right above the "Made" part of "Made in Italy" has what looks like a mis-colored surface flaw ( dirt maybe or printing flaw). The other grader may have missed it = the reviewer at PSA apparently didn't. Generally surface issues is what hampers high grades on stickers

Great stuff. I share your enthusiasm about subbing Spanish and other foreign issue items, and it is fun to see someone else sending in similar subs

I'd be happy with the grades on those Basket 16 cards. It is a tough set to find with them cut squarely.

erikthredd

The grades for my most recent sub just popped and overall very happy. I thought the 88 & 89 SLU's would have been switched grade-wise and the 92 SLU was the first time subbing a card straight from the package. I thought i had a chance at least an 8 on that one. I've been bingeing on MJ retro cards lately so getting three 10's was pretty sweet. I'll post pics when in-hand.

Can't beat MJ as a hobby God. Love the foreign issues. I lived in Spain in 1991 and he was known worldly having played on the playgrounds in Madrid myself and hearing the chatter. I played more like the slow American at the time. Don't remember cards in the stores, however I was more focused on sangria y mujeres. Can't wait to see the SLU's!!!

Great sub! I have a couple Spanish Jordan’s at PSA as well right now. MJ all day.

erikthredd

PSA Mailday!
The hits:

Thought this one had a shot at a 9

don't know what i missed on this one

Was hoping this might hit at least an 8.5 or 9 even with the print dot on top and the bottom left corner on back. I compared it to quite a few other 9's on ebay that had similar imperfections

Nice stuff. The back of the '88 Fleer sticker is pretty bad (top edge, lower left corner).

This is the toughest sticker set to hit in high grades (88 fleer). It is near impossible to get chipless edging around the card. I have seen most 10s with some and there are not many 10s as it is of any player anyway. Treat the back blue parts about as fragile as 71 topps baseball or 62 topps baseball..seriously.

Thanks. I've owned multiple Mint 9 copies that had much more white showing than that not to mention i compared it to many graded copies of this sticker on ebay. I knew it was a gamble though and was planning on selling it no matter what the grade.
