Jeremy (and others who have sent in their flips),
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. |

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?

Imagine this scenario: There are two individuals competing for the same set in the registry. One of the individuals steals images of his competitor’s cards, prints the images and cuts out the flips. Then the individual mails the flips to the TPG with a letter that says “please delete.” That could be a bad situation. That may sound kind of ridiculous, but some of those registry guys can be pretty cutthroat from what I’ve heard. |

Great point David, I hadn't thought of that.
I guess I was just thinking more along the lines that if I had all of these flips I would sort of want to keep them, maybe in case I was ever to sell the card I could send it along with the card, but still have the TPG's adjust their pop reports. Sincerely,Clayton |

If you still have the card then there is no issue of having duplicates in the population reports after you crack it out.

...any issue with busting out the cards from their holders. Heck, population reports are only a useful as a general guide to relative scarcity, and not the end-all-be-all of card provenance. But if you are ever going to upgrade those cards and sell them as dupes, you are leaving potentially significant money on the table by busting them out.
I have a nice raw T206 set going, with over 300 examples, and a few of them are slabbed. It's awfully tempting to bust the slabs open to keep the entire set looking consistent and raw, but every time I think of doing it, I think of all the money I am literally throwing away and can't bring myself to do it.
