I think grading for really excellent condition stars, even sign numbers is great-the difference between a 1964 PSA 7 and PSA 8 $50 and $110 respectively. I think my prewar cards I will send of, but yeah right, what is going on?Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00723730037880660613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3229213556047981911.post-41077468163064847232016-06-11T07:03:07.846-07:002016-06-11T07:03:07.846-07:00I've never understood why so many people take ...I've never understood why so many people take losses on their graded cards. I've been recently building my Frank Thomas autographed rookie card collection... and have picked up most of them for $25 or less. My buddy Mike and I were discussing it and using his discount it would cost at least $18 (he thinks it would probably cost him $20 to $23) to have the autograph authenticated and slabbed.

What the heck is going on in our hobby?Fujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00749100861086458307noreply@blogger.com
