What the heck have we gotten ourselves into? THE OFFICIAL APRIL SUB THREAD - IF THERE IS POPPAGE, L

larryallen73 · May 8, 2009 12:19AM

My first April sub was logged April 7th and no poparooski yet.

My second April sub was mailed April 30th. I roll the dice so no delivery confirmation or anything so not sure when it arrived there. I am in Cali so had to get there by May 4th at the latest and still not logarooskied yet.

Oh well....

RonBurgundy · May 8, 2009 12:24AM

I'll be very interested to see how long it takes for the 720 card behemoth to pop. Just from the sheer volume, it will take almost a couple days to grade that thing once they get to it.

initialD · May 9, 2009 6:09AM

PLEASE CAN I GET SOME!!!!!!!!!

halosfan · May 9, 2009 6:18AM

With all of the quick turn-arounds lately maybe they have offered some OT as the registry deadline is the end of the month.

RonBurgundy · May 20, 2009 12:45AM

Let's see the results.

MiniDuff · May 20, 2009 2:39AM

I sent in two orders together, 90 1971 Topps Baseball and 110 1975 Mini. Both were logged 4/28, the 71's popped on 5/1. The minis are still out there.

initialD · May 20, 2009 10:13AM

Dynamite sub InitialD.

I got a mediocre pop today.

Really, really surprised by the 7's. These were the raw 76's from the set I bought from Felicia (she had included PSA graded copies of most too in 8/9)and a couple of recent cheap wax pulls. I hoped for a 9 on one of the 76 Rose's.

Thanks Mike,

Not bad yourself, we all know those cards are blazers!!!!

I thought 9 on that Rose too

You pulled that outa pack correct?

Bosox1976 · May 20, 2009 1:13PM

Yes - Rose #2 was from a GAI pack. Super clean. Oh well.

edit: A little o/c, a little pd, maybe 8 is about right.

I thought my old pal Billy Buck was a 10 though...

initialD · May 20, 2009 1:37PM

<< <i>I thought my old pal Billy Buck was a 10 though... >>

Darn!! I could shave with that PSA 8!!!!

I think the Chaney card has the right expression tho

DavidPuddy · May 21, 2009 11:06AM

I just had these POP.
Solid grades overall. Didn't they start using .5 grades?

DavidPuddy - Great job on the crackout. I guess the original grader didn't like the typical O-Pee-Chee rough cut.

DavidPuddy · May 21, 2009 12:25PM

It's a solid 9 front and back. It must have had an inviable surface wrinkle
