(20) Ripken Poppage *Scans Added*

I feel so-so about these results. I thought I did better with looking at the cards closely. They are all from my personal raw collection, and I had multiples to choose from for most of the cards I submitted. I only collect 9s and 10s, so I got 11 out of 20 that I'll keep in my set. I'll insert all of these into my set, but I'll only keep the 8s and 8.5s in there temporarily. Not too bad though, two 10s, and 6 top-pops. All of these cards had a 11 or less overall population before I submitted them. Also, all of these cards were submitted using free vouchers. 12 were from my subscription renewal, and 8 were from free vouchers I earned before they changed it from needing your set to be only 75% complete to 90%. Not too bad for 20 free vouchers!

By the way, that PSA 6 1996 Studio is very hard to get a good grade on for some reason. As you can see, my 8 is one of 4, and there are no 9s or 10s.

    Nice job that 1994 ultra is brutal with the gold foil bottom border.

    << <i>Nice job that 1994 ultra is brutal with the gold foil bottom border. >>



    That, and if you open packs now, the cards WILL be stuck together.

    It will be curious to see how modern grading goes over the next few years. I wonder if things like 1992 Pinnacle or 1997 Bowman will be the new 1971 Topps.
