Resubmission success with no crack out?

Yanksfan39 · March 27, 2016 10:00AM

I've seen some old threads on this, but nothing recent...

Has anyone had recent success getting a bump in grade on a PSA resubmission? I don't want to crack out the cards, because I love these particular cards and I'd be crushed if the cards were damaged on an attempt to crack them out. I also wouldn't want to run the risk of a lower grade by a raw submission (which I've heard doesn't happen with resubmits). To be clear, the cards are vintage cards, currently in PSA slabs.

Thanks.

Right now I have a submission of 15 cards for review, we'll see what happens. Crossing my fingers.

Please keep me updated!

My last batch of reviews was 0/15. Mostly 9s hoping to bump to 10s. It is tough sledding, even for worthy cards.

A couple months ago I sent in 3 Rickey Henderson rookies PSA 9 for review hoping for a bump on all three.(High expectations)
0-3.
I went down swinging.

In the last year...I submitted 13 PSA cards for review. I batted .077 (1 for 13)...but it was a big hit (knocked it out of the ballpark). Reggie Jackson rookie bumped from an 8.5 to a 9!

6 cards reviewed. Got a .5 bump on one. It was unfortunately the least valuable.

I, I, I thought someone wound up hitting on a '69 or '70 Nolan Ryan 10 a few months ago?

From my recollection, they got bumped on a '71 too?

Could be wrong.

Several years ago but my best bump was a 1971 Claude Raymond that bumped from an 8 to a 9. That was when the '71 registry was on fire. Believe it or not, that card was valued at what a PSA 9 Reggie RC was worth at the time!

My best review sub I bumped 6 PSA 9 75 minis to PSA 10 (out of 34 cards) a couple of years ago.

I would say that is an outstanding bump rate...considering how vulnerable those 75s are with the colored border...10s are very difficult to achieve.

I just had poppage on my 15 card renewal voucher.

Looks like 4 out of 15 bumped, but all by a half grade (they were all straight grades to start, so the 8.5's are the bumps).

I just had poppage on my 15 card renewel voucher as well. I had 2 out of 15 bump to 10's. It took me 6 months to collect the best Ripkens that I could find. So it looks like try again lol. Overall I'm happy and think they are well deserved.

Nice hits!!!!

Dnice · April 4, 2016 8:30AM

You sir inspired me. I am going to send out some cards for review with tomorrow's mail. Hope I have even have a quarter of the luck that you did.

lilmule · April 4, 2016 10:55AM

Mike,

Looks like you had some great hits as well. That must have been a real nice 73 Schmidt.

Bosox1976 · April 4, 2016 12:06PM

I think 8.5 was probably right for the Schmidt. I thought there were a couple of 9's in this batch, particularly the Aarons, but happy that the Schmidt bumped for sure.

Resubmission success with no crack out?
