    Chris,
    What level do you typically use when submitting to PSA?



    Thanks,

    Hey David - I have been using a PSA Dealer in New York City - Sports Card Yoda, for grading. He uses different levels depending on the cards. Some he gets graded at shows and/or trips to PSA I believe. He is mainly into modern and has a focus for grading. With the exception of a 1/1, if a card is likely not to get a decent grade he tells me so I have a choice to proceed or not. I pretty much have him decide if an auto is worth grading or not. Easy and fun to work with and is results oriented. I came across him on Instagram.

    Cooper Flagg became the youngest player to have a 50-point game (51 points) in an NBA game last night…

    So cool. I have tried for years to get one of my magic/bird rookies signed by all 3 with absolutely no luck.

    Dr. J looking really good for his age. His hands are enormous and they definitely don’t look like hands of a 76 year old.

    Even in his 70s Dr J is the coolest most badass dude around. Probably my all-time favorite NBAer.

    I had good intentions of getting mine signed by all three too, but they now charge a kings ransom to sign those. I think Dr. J and Bird are $1K to sign that card. Not sure what Magic is or if he has upcharged on that card as well.

    Somethings are just worth 1k.

    Are you sending all these in to be graded/authenticated?

    Looks like you chose some quality cards to be signed.

    My worry is I start the process and then something happens to one of the three guys, leaving the card incomplete. I've tinkered with just buying it already autographed.

    I had no idea they charged that much to sign that card. I'll be perfectly content keeping it as is. lol

    How do you get photos of all this happening? Do you go in person to all these players?

    Chris,

    It is very cool to have a photo of actually signing your card. The ultimate provenance!

    I didn't collect a thing during the 90s but opening them now is so fun. It's hard to believe these are as old as they are and seeing all the players fresh is super-cool.

    Good luck.

    Agree - Grant Hill sure was fun to watch at DUKE and it would have been even better if he could have hit full potential in the NBA.
