Grading/Shipping Advice

[leftygrove10]

In regards to your post above, post a picture of the card. People will be able to give you better advice if they can see what the card looks like.

Yeah, I know I am asking for people to take a shot in the dark on the grade. I will have to scan at work and then post. Until then, I was kind of looking for stories from others who have done the same.

Thanks

I will give it the old college try. Give me some time.

[PWeso81]

Not sure how these will come out...

[PWeso81]

Hey! it worked.

Not bad for a Polish man.

The postal insurance should be enough.

Are there any hairline creases on the card? It looks like on Tyrus' right shoulder there is a possible crease/or maybe a stain. From my best guess, it looks like a 3 to me.

[PWeso81]

No creases...stains...yes. Front and back (very mild). I kind of like those. I have a few Polar Bear commons that have tobacco stains (and some tobacco pieces) that I will never get rid of. I like that.

nice card but appears a little overgraded in my op[inion.

[smtjoy]

Very nice Cobb, I would leave as is.

[PWeso81]

OK. I slept on it. After some good advice and valuable feedback...I am keeping as is. Thanks for everyones help.

I do not agree with Andrew regarding crossing cards SGC cards to PSA. I have submitted many cards for crossover from SGC and a quite a few from BVG. I wrote a post about this once before. Less than half of these cards have crossed over at an equal grade. The majority will not cross over without being bumped DOWN 1/2 to 1 full grade. I will not buy SGC cards for crossover any more at all to expect an equal grade because I know it isn't going to happen (not on higher grade 7-8's anyway). I do buy SGC cards and expect that I can cross them over if I write on the submission form that I am willing to take a 1/2 point drop. I do not wish to discourage the original poster who would like to cross over his Cobb. Go for it - If you are worried, definitely put 3 down as the minimum grade you will accept. If it does not cross, at least you will get it returned in the SGC 30 holder and there are many on this board that will bid and buy SGC cards and you should get close to your original investment back.
