Yes, I fully understand. I saw the forums I would use for what I collect. I posted here because it said '& New Member Introductions'. I am sorry if this is the wrong forum for this post. Thanks for the welcome!

No, no need for an apology, you are fine and did everything right. I was just mentioning the other areas as that is where your list of hundreds of post war cards/packs would solicit the most responses. It's all good....and if you did post in an incorrect forum a moderator would just move the thread. You wouldn't be banned for something like that unless you did it over and over and over after being asked (many times) not to. The other moderators and I have a lot of patience for most things. Now, if you go berserk and start talking about someone's family or children, you will be out of here faster than lickity-split . Also, you can always PM me for guidance if you have a question on something concerning the board. Happy collecting!!

and obviously I didn't understand, when I posted the above, what the situation was. I thought these were your PSA 10 Gem Mint cards you had posted.

PSA grading is a rigged game where the insiders win and the outsiders lose. Has been since PSA graded card #1 with at least one grader who was involved knowing it was trimmed. This is just a particularly piggish example. At long last, PSA has no decency...

Go raw; it's more fun and you won't get a hernia lifting a 500 card set.

You know, I collect raw and I am always trying to amass reasons not to slab and the sheer weight never dawned on me. Let's say a collector has 25000 raw cards and 25000 slabs. The raw cards would be a pain to move..The 25000 slabs would be painful to move.

Imagine that, someone thinking a conspiracy could exist around the grading of a PSA card. Mike O'Keeffe should write a book about such a crazy concept.

25000 slabs would weigh about 1500 pounds. No, seriously...1500 pounds. That's enough weight to possibly require extra structural support to whatever room they reside in.
