Bump,
to say c'mon folks pick up the pace.
If Gumby is supposed to get 1,000 cards by March 2 and only 15% have been mailed, that's not good.

gumbyfan · February 24, 2009 12:31PM

CrimsonTider · February 24, 2009 9:42PM

Well I'm not sure if I'm sending in but I will figure it out today and get them in the mail. I'm leaning toward 20. If I sub 20, I will be sending in some serious commons, so I may sub fewer, not sure.

How many gem mint commons does one man need from 1992 Topps?

How much is the shipping for 46 cards with a declared value of $990. I can not access this info at work. It blocks this info. Craig sent it, but I can't access it. Thanks in advance.

I amaze myself. I am subbing cards that are more commoner than Mitch Williams! That's right, I used the plural form of cards (implying more than one) and I used the word commoner with more as a qualifer.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you Geronimo Pena!

I give you Bob Geren!

I give you Felix Jose!

1992 Topps, where the stars live!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CrimsonTider · February 25, 2009 4:15AM

Just to clarify, I did not misspell Green, its really Bob Geren

mrmint23 · February 25, 2009 5:45AM

I could use about 20 cs1's. Let me know how much you want for them.

Thanks

I'm not trying to create jealousy amongst fellow board members by talking about my valuable cards that I'm submitting, but I do have a question. My 1992 topps Tim Raines that I'm submitting has his name as rock raines. Will psa slap it as rock or as tim? Same question for rich 'goose' gossage?

Thanks soooooooooooooooo much for your efforts here, take your time and don't go nuts!

My 72 cards went out yesterday morining.

Thanks again for such the effort, takes me forever to do my own

Dboneesq · February 26, 2009 3:02AM

My 29 are going out today. Here are 4 that I am keeping my fingers crossed on. They are in amazing shape.

CrimsonTider · February 26, 2009 4:21AM

Man, I'm sick of waiting! When will the grades pop!

54 beauties going out today...

CrimsonTider · February 26, 2009 5:45AM

What a great name for a football team "The Gamblers". The only better name would be the "Spread Coverers". Now that's a team I could bet on.

lsutigers1973 · February 26, 2009 6:00AM

I am sending 52 cards with a declared value of $40.

CrimsonTider · February 26, 2009 6:12AM

LSU, are you trying to break my record for lowest total value?

If need be, I can add some more commons to my sub

lsutigers1973 · February 26, 2009 6:58AM

I'm subbing all Gantner cards and one Maddux. The declared value on the Maddux is half my total submission.

CrimsonTider · February 26, 2009 7:05AM

A wise man once told me that 3 psa 10 Gantnar's equals 1 psa 10 Mitch Williams!!!

That wise man was me

CrimsonTider · February 26, 2009 7:07AM

Not trying to start anything, but I once heard Glenn Hubbard refer to Gantner as "his little b*%#h" and then he told Gumby to go home and get his shine box.

Ahmanfan · February 26, 2009 7:50AM

CrimsonTider · February 26, 2009 7:59AM

Can someone send Joe an email and see if he will discount my submission. Once he sees the crap that I'm sending in, I'm sure he'll cut me some slack.

P.S. Didn't Gantner win a oscar for co-writing Steel Magnolias? or was it Beaches?

gumbyfan · February 26, 2009 9:52AM

Thursday Evening Update:

As of this very moment, it has been confirmed that 850 cards are either in transit or in the process of being mailed out to me!

I've received 7 packages so far and am going to eat some dinner and then "log them in"...

I'll be back in a while to PM everyone whose cards I received today and will begin to update the first post of this thread with the names of the participants who I have received cards from and the number of cards they've submitted.

If anyone else has mailed me cards for the group submission and hasn't mentioned it yet, please PM me so I can keep track of what to watch for.

Thanks!
Craig

Additional Gantner bashing gets your cards sent to BCCG.

If I send in 52 cards of modern junk and only get four 10's, I am quitting the hobby. Yes I will take my 83 Donruss set and go home.

OAKESY25 · February 26, 2009 10:39AM

I wonder how long this one will take?? that is a lot of different cards..

do we have an over / under??

gumbyfan · February 26, 2009 10:48AM

<< I wonder how long this one will take?? that is a lot of different cards..

I'm thinking this one might take the full 45 business days, based on the broad spectrum of cards that will be included as well as the volume.

Group Submission - the countdown has begun...
