Thanks again Craig! What a group effort. I have never done a group sub, so I only sent in a few, but I am already compiling for the next one. Bye the way, I will be in Vegas for the first round too. If you have never been for the tournament you are in for a treat. Have fun and I will see you in the sportsbook.

Hi, Vince here for the new Slap Chop!

Bosox1976 · March 11, 2009 10:31AM

Atta boy Craig.

How heavy was the package? I'll take any numerical input at this point.

initialD · March 11, 2009 10:33AM

A truck will have to unload them to your house!!

Your wife will be thrilled

digicat · March 11, 2009 10:50AM

Make sure you get a pic of the box/boxes that PSA sends back after the cards are graded. That'll be an interesting sight!

Wife!(lol) No married man would be able to create spread sheets for something as meaningless as baseball cards! Craig is not married.

Getting too far down.

gumbyfan · March 12, 2009 4:31AM

<< Wife!(lol) >>

I got a good laugh at that one, myself!

If I wanted to give away half my money, I'd have left it in the market!

Dboneesq · March 12, 2009 4:44AM

A close-up of the truck that will be delivering the cards back to Craig

Is this a website to guess how heavy the return package is? LOL

Hopefully this is NOT the truck that will be delivering the cards to Craig

I really don't like the idea of Craig being in Vegas with my prized possessions. I can see him at the craps tables throwing out 1988 Donruss Dale Murphy's as bets or betting my stack of 1987 Topps commons on black on the roulette table.

BassPro77 · March 13, 2009 3:59PM

grades up yet?
no.
how about now?

gumbyfan · March 16, 2009 10:03AM

I'm going to have to do more than bump this to get it back from page SIX. Yikes. Try to keep this toward the top while I'm out of town, please. I'm not taking my laptop on vacation, so I won't be able to keep this on the first page myself.

Oh...and the cards arrived at PSA today.

If they're logged in today, I'll post the order number and share it. Nobody will be able to see it but me until it pops, but I know a few people like to click refresh all day anyway.

If they're not logged in today, I'll try to get the order number posted here somehow while I'm out of town.

May all your grades be 10's...and your women, too.

Looks, not age...sickos.

Gumby, Buy a futures ticket for the Royals to win the Central division.
Just a tip, they'll be a lot better than most people think and the odds should be 12-1.

Good call! I'm actually picking a few different division winners. If one or two of them pay off, I'll do alright. Besides, I'd rather have my bet last the entire baseball season than lose it in a few hands of blackjack.

The guy that gets the most 9's has to buy everyone a beer.

lsutigers1973 · March 17, 2009 6:38AM

No I'm not.

Bosox1976 · March 17, 2009 8:47AM

If I get the most 9's I'll buy everybody two beers.

<< If I get the most 9's I'll buy everybody two beers. >>

Rolling Rock?

lsutigers1973 · March 17, 2009 9:00AM

I fully expect to get the highest percentage of 9's and lowest percentage of 10's based on the total number of cards submitted per person.

lawnmowerman · March 17, 2009 9:03AM

<< I fully expect to get the highest percentage of 9's and lowest percentage of 10's based on the total number of cards submitted per person. >>

After I scanned the cards I sent Craig, I think 3 out of the 8 may be 9's.

lsutigers1973 · March 17, 2009 9:05AM

I jsut got back my boxes of neverending 1981 Topps baseball PSA 9's from my lat sub. Funny how they look more like 9's when they are in PSA 9 holders when they looked like 10's before they were slabbed.

Bosox1976 · March 17, 2009 9:17AM

<< Rolling Rock? >>

High Life.

bsidegrve · March 17, 2009 1:56PM

I added this card to the group sub
Any guess as to what this fish eyed wonder will grade?

lawnmowerman · March 17, 2009 2:00PM

8

bsidegrve · March 17, 2009 2:09PM

I'de be alright with a 8, sure wish it didn't have the eye the corners look better in hand then scan shows

lsutigers1973 · March 17, 2009 10:45PM

I sent a Rice rookie too but I am just hoping for a 7 on mine. Part of a set and just wanted the key card slabbed.

EagleEyeKid · March 18, 2009 4:21AM

In a world where all the hot young ladies are now sexting, I'm the old pervert handing out candy with my cell phone number on it. Boy, my wife would be proud to read that last statement.

I'm glad she's not as nerdy as I am.

rbdjr1 · March 18, 2009 7:49AM

This should be some interesting poppage for me?

I subbed a diversity of about 50 different non-sports material (mostly european/some american) from the 30s and 50s, a 1978 Topps Johnnie LeMaster, pulled from wax, immpossible to locate in high grade, and a lot of (12) '86T BB, from my CU group rip (wax, cellos & rack)!

My 66 card sub will be a test for the graders, for sure!!!

Good luck to me (and all who participated here!)...

Yes, Craig grabbed them on his way from Vegas to Arizona. Small detour and he picked them up. They are sitting in the trunk of his rental car in the hot Arizona sun.

U R right! I should have just subbed the Johnnie LeMaster!

If that LeMaster comes back 'gem', I won't care if it takes 75 days!

LSU, at 1,500 cards+ (my 66 card sub participation will be a very small part of the time taken to grade all 1500+ items! For sure!)

123Slider · March 20, 2009 12:31PM

Just so I can feel like I'm checking the sub 100 times a day, Gumby should copy and paste that stupid "still being processed" message several times a day just to make us feel at home.

lsutigers1973 · March 20, 2009 12:38PM

<< LSU, at 1,500 cards+ (my 66 card sub participation will be a very small part of the time taken to grade all 1500+ items! For sure!) >>

Neil had 60 non-sports cards in our last group sub and Joe said what many suspected. One modern baseball grader gets the entire order and grades all the modern baseball cards. Then the order is sent to let's say a modern football grader and he/she grades the football. then the vintage grader comes in. Then the non-sport grader. Each time it switches hands, the order starts at the back of the line again.
