I heard something like 7.99 for any card post 2027
Shoot sorry not 7.99 it's 27.99 but still 2027 and after. jk
But no clue. Probably the same as last month is my guess.
Are there really any "specials"?
The page is void of specials as I type this.
Hmmm. I will submit some newborn baby pictures of future Major League Stars. I don't know any of these people. I just happened to be hanging around at the hospital, so I took photos. I may have discovered the next Juan Soto.

Saw that absence too and was shaking my head. I figure they just may not feel its convenient for them to offer any specials. They just need to focus on making sure that automatic renewal of memberships kick in even when they are canceled. Then they have to decrease staff in customer service enough so when people call to complain they cant reach anybody. That way folks get fatigued and throw in the towel and accept they just got taken by snake oil salesmen.
That was what was cool about SGC. Hey, imagine, a company lets you do business with them without charging you a yearly fee to do business with them.
Saw a video that was very unsettling where the CEO of Collector's said yeah we were having some issues with the PSA so we were trying to get the SGC graders to help. I mean, cant they just let SGC stay the one good card grading business for customers under Collector's. It doesn't seem that way.
It came off like the value in acquiring SGC was to take their grading staff and at the same time reduce a threat to PSA's business. I heard that SGC staff was not so interested in joining the PSA team so they built something in Florida right next to the SGC office to appeal to them. If the SGC product flounders who cares. People are used to PSA and keep coming back. So 5 to 10 day service can become 65 day service.
From the monthly numbers they're doing on TCG and Modern I don't know why they waste their time with Specials. I think most customers have learned that's where you send those cards. If you do vintage or something else similar most have probably given up on Collectors and they probably won't come back with specials.
I'm not even sure they want that business anymore.
With the backlog they have and the National coming up, I don't believe we see a special this month...maybe not next month either
No National Specials this year. They published the on-site costs but nothing for drop-off.
