How do you manage your excess Flips ?

I would actually like a set of T206 flips if possible. If anyone has some they would like to get rid of please let me know.

I don't have any, but that's a great idea for a collection!! I wonder what a Wagner flip would go for these days?

I keep my flips because I keep everything, worthless or not, looking forward to see what they say when I'm profiled on the show "hoarders"

to the opposite company from that which issued the flip. So all PSa flips go to SGC and vice versa. I keep only the Mint slabbed flips, and sell the rest.



honestly, I toss them. but I have only cracked maybe 5-10 cards in my life...over the past 7 years since I returned to collecting.

I would like to return my flips also. However, do you think there would be any bias for doing this? For example, if I sent the flips with my PSA submission, do you think PSA would grade my cards lower than they deserve? Similar for SGC. That is what concerns me in that if I had a submission for 5 cards, but sent in 200 flips also, the TPG might get annoyed.

If this is a concern for you, just make it a non-issue by mailing them separately. You don't even need to put a return address if you want anonymity. What are we talking, like $3 shipping?

BTW, once I crack a slab, I put the card in a top loader and put the flip in the top loader behind the card to keep the two together. I believe keeping the flip probably adds legitimacy if I ever want to sell the card.

What if you just kept the flips, but made a scan of them and mailed the TPG the scan of all the flips?
