The Swinging Sixties - Piggyback Special. Any Interest? GRADES POSTED!!!
New year, and PSA had a new quarterly special. The one I am interested in is called "The Swinging Sixties". If covers 1960-1969 and has a $499 and under limit. They went up a little in price from the Goudey/T206 Special last quarter, from $8.50 to $9.00, but still better than the other guys. I got ENTIRELY too many raw cards and this would knock out all my cards from the 60s.
How about you guys?? Any of you have any cards from the 60's you want to get graded?? Let me know. Last edited by bobbyw8469; 09-27-2022 at 06:13 AM. |

I'd be interested, let me see what I have that fits. I'm guessing 25-30 cards.

20 card minimum...and of course I am contributing, but I don't know how many I have.....I am pretty sure this one will be a go......

I will absolutely take part. My 1967 Laughlins aren't going to grade themselves!

I am not familiar with that issue. It is baseball only.

Darn it. Why not fabulous 50s? I’m sitting on a ton of 1950s cards. However, I’m good for 5 or so. I’ll need to take inventory when I get home. Thanks for doing these!

I'm in. I've got an ungraded '65 set. I'll be pulling 50+ from there.
I haven't looked at the set in a while. A few interesting cards And a few familiar names Last edited by Vegas Cards; 01-09-2021 at 06:59 PM. |

When is the deadline to get cards to you?
Thank you. |

I have about half a dozen cards I would be interested in sending in. Have never graded or done a group grade before – any quick guide I should read?

The grading fee is $9.00 a card. Then add $1.00 per card for the round-trip (from Bobby’s house to California and back) shipping expense. This brings the expense to $10.00. You are responsible for paying the shipping to Bobby’s house and for him to return them to you after he receives them back from grading. These shipping fees depend on how many cards you submit and how you want Bobby to ship the back to you. You obviously determine how you ship them to him and that expense. All cards need to be in the larger plastic semi-rigid holders (typically size I v. II). No top loaders or screw downs. Sandwich all the holders between two slightly larger cardboard pieces. Tape to secure the sandwich. Include a check in your package. He also typically accepts electronic payments. Also in the package, include a piece of paper that lists the cards you are submitting and their estimated value. This paper should also include your name, address, email, net54 username, and telephone number. If this submission it is a go, Bobby will post his mailing address and the deadline.

Please don't overwhelm me with cards....one person is talking about 100+. ANother is talking about 50+. PSA cuts me off at 500 cards....I want as many people to able to participate as possible....if no one wants to sub, the quantities are no problem......
|
#15
|
||||
|
||||
Would it help if I cut mine to 60 with 40 in reserve in case you need it?
|
#16
|
|||
|
|||
I'd be happy with less too. Maybe cap it at 25? Just let me know.
|
#17
|
||||
|
||||
Yes...that way everyone that wants to can participate. I wouldn't even bother if PSA didn't cap me at 500.
|
#18
|
|||
|
|||
Count me in for about 10 cards when you are ready to go
|
#19
|
||||
|
||||
I'm ready now....it's on....deadline end of the month.

|

Hi Bobby,
Just to be clear, whats the cap number? Thanks for setting this up. |
#21
|
||||
|
||||
Let's say 50.....because the limit is 500.....that lets at LEAST 10 people submit...if they all do the max
|
#22
|
||||
|
||||
Will do, I'll set up 50 and have some back up in case you need it.
|
#23
|
|||
|
|||
I will get my 9 in the mail tomorrow.

PS - the deadline is the end of the month. So now is NOT the time to be making purchases. These are for guys that already have their cards, and want to get them graded. And be prepared to the process to take 9 months. Think of it like a pregnancy.

Does that mean our 5/31 is ready to be born???? :>}

#27

Once it has been logged in.....is when the 9 months start...so we still go a ways to go.

Winding this one down.

Boy, I am confused. I sent the cards out and on Jan 13th they were in Raleigh, then on Jan 14th they were in Greensboro, today they are out for distribution to be delivered Jan 19th.

Hey Bobby,
The second package that I sent this Monday, and emailed you about, should arrive today or tomorrow. The tracking number says it is in your city. Thanks for letting me send you a second group to submit. |

Haha, Such a tease to have this thread reappear, but alas, no news.
Bobby, what was the date PSA logged the order so we can see where we are on their CTD tracker. |

Like my dad leaving for a pack of cigarettes, this sub ain't ever coming back.

Technically, isn't PSA still closed???? I haven't sent them anything in months...and I find it hard to believe that $100 per card is the new norm.

So not really a year yet. Regardless of the wait, I'm grateful you put this together. Thanks Bobby.

That's not a problem....you should see my raw card collection. I'll be ready for the next $8 special they come out with. Cards from 1948 with yellow backgrounds featuring players with 4 syllable last names.

A little bitter sweet. Sweet because I haven’t seen these cards since January 2021, and I’m ready to get them back. Bitter because it’s the last outstanding PSA submissions I have, and will probably have for a while. I refuse to pay $50.00 a card. Also, probably the last group submission Bobby will do for us. Thanks, Bobby.
