Planning on shipping out tomorrow morning. I’m also located in FL, so hoping that helps my timeline as well. Tempting to just make the drive to hand deliver my cards, as shipping always makes me cringe.

Looking forward to getting shareable updates of my experience.

Beautiful cards, especially that Aaron RC. I don't mean to horn in on this thread but, what is it going to cost you to get them graded?

I sent a 1971 Greatest Moments in of Killebrew and was very happy with SGC. I am thinking about sending these two in just to have them slabbed but I am concerned about cost. What do you think fees will be for these two. Is SGC tough on premium for higher end cards? Not concerned about high grades, just want them slabbed. I know a lot of people become concerned about leaving money on the table but these two cards have been and will always be PC cards. Any info from members would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

I've always subbed based on expected value after being graded, but someone that I know that subs modern to them told me that their price structure is strictly based on how much you want to insure the card for while they have it. According to him he subbed two Mike Trout rookie cards at the $499 ($25 per card) and it was fine.

Many 1st hand accounts of MY cards beiing up charged so.....if you send these in at $500 value, you will get up charged. Fact.

My "guess" and it could range is that you will get an email or phone call that the fee will be $250 or so per card, maybe more.

You will NOT get these slabbed at SGC if you put $499 on the value.

Cool cards and I feel if you have the money, they need to be slabbed. They would look really nice slabbed regardless of what TPG you use but with SGC youll have them back within a couple to few weeks as opposed to months with other TPGs.

Peace, Mike

The colors on the Goudey Ruth seem off. I hope for your sake the card is real.

Sent an order on the 10th; shipped back to me Friday. Kudos to SGC for delivering what they promised.



My next order will go in very soon.

PSA likely has a backlog of over a million cards. The right thing to do, would have been to stop accepting submissions. But no, PSA raises prices in an attempt to stem the flow.

Just an FYI, if you are shipping to SGC via USPS, your box is not delivered directly to SGC. But rather, boxes are held at the local post office and picked up by SGC. Not a huge deal, but it does take longer. My expensive shipment has been sitting at the post office since last Wednesday and still shows “Available for pickup”. I know there’s waits associated, but I also know how sloppy USPS/UPS type facilities are, as I worked for them for 15 yrs. I was told Fedex delivers direct.

Well they stopped accepting crossovers and other lower tier services. They should have done this last year.

I purchased both cards from an Auction company 15 to 20 years ago. I was guaranteed authenticity on both but the Ruth was faded from being displayed. I did not pay even close to today's prices, obviously so whatever happens, happens!

SGC's newfound turnaround ability is pretty cool, but what's not is when they send you cards back with defective gaskets and shards of plastic sticking out ready to cut into your cards. I had to pop the most valuable card from my last submission a day after I got it last week. (They did get my cards back to me in 7 business days). The card was not damaged, but extremely frustrating just the same.

I will not be submitting to SGC again until they can prove they've upped the ante on quality control.
