SGC Monthly Grading Specials..

[Vol]

I have been waiting for months for the next "T" Card grading special. Last December was the last one time I can remember that they had one going.

Is that the only time of year they run the special?
I have about 30 cards that need to be graded, so I know this does not apply to me, but when does SGC start giving out a discount sending in so many cards at once?

Thanks fellas.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a T-card special too...got 20+ to send in as well.

Me too, but it won't be in September. They announced their specials this morning and no T-card specials.

SGC ran a $7 T-Card Special in April 2011. I remember because I submitted some T206s at that time.

They usually run a T-Card Special two or three times per year, so it would seem they're due to run another one soon.

I was hoping for a football card special too, coinciding with the start of the season.

I just got 75 T210s graded. I called them and they said the "Bulk Rate" started at a 100 cards. They worked with me though, because I had 75 of one type. They graded them @ $8.00 per card.

I usually take a screenshot of the monthly specials for SGC, PSA, and Beckett. Unfortunately, I don't have access to that at work, but I do see that this past March, SGC had a March Madness Special: Any card, any sport, $6/card, 10-15 day, $250 max value. In ~18 months of watching the specials, this is the best deal I've seen for SGC for prewar cards (under $250) is $6/card, no minimum. For PSA, the best deal that I've seen for prewar is $5/card, (under $100), 50 card minimum, 45 business day turnaround.

Hopefully someone will answer my request in the B/S/T Misc. section for a PSA buddy, so I can take advantage of the specials.
