Unofficial Group Sub III Stupid Newbie Questions Thread

in Trading Cards & Memorabilia Forum
I know the person putting this group sub together is busy so I thought, rather than bug them with stupid questions, I would ask the forum. Anybody else is welcome to ask questions alongside with me; I believe there is no such thing as a bad question:

1) Do I personally have to be a member of PSA?

2) Do I have to list the cards I'm submitting on a special PSA form of some kind?

3) Can I just list them in a word document or on a printout?

4) Will I be getting my holders back (CardSaver1's or equivalent)?

5) I'm not personally interested in looking online for grades; I can wait until they show up in my mailbox. But for those who do, how do you register/look up stuff online?

    1) Do I personally have to be a member of PSA?
    No, but if you ask Joe Orlando, he doesn't really like it when people do group subs allowing non-members to participate. But there's nothing he can do about it, so he doesn't say anything. I tend to agree with him, only members should participate, but that's just me.

    2) Do I have to list the cards I'm submitting on a special PSA form of some kind?
    No

    3) Can I just list them in a word document or on a printout?
    That would help Gumby out A LOT. I usually do it in Excel and I pattern it after the standard sub form.

    4) Will I be getting my holders back (CardSaver1's or equivalent)?
    No

    5) I'm not personally interested in looking online for grades; I can wait until they show up in my mailbox. But for those who do, how do you register/look up stuff online?
    It isn't made public until the grades pop, and the submitter needs to make the sub "public" so others can view it.

    Well that was easy. Thanks a lot.

    I fully intend to join PSA for what it's worth. I just won't have the buck$$$ to do so until summer.

    Just do what I do and send your cards raw in rubber-bands. That way, you don't have to worry about getting your cardsavers back.

    just make sure you use the cards from your bicycle spokes, use a rubber band then send them in.

    I've had good luck stapling mine together. Never had one lost yet.

    I'm going to submit a few and, seeing that I'm currently an evil non-PSA member, I don't know what the PSA form looks like. Could someone post a scan of a form so I can pattern my Excel spreadsheet after it to help gumby out?

    Sorry for the stupid question. But you were warned...

    you can also get yourself one of them hole punchers and then tie a string through it. make sure you double knot it.
