The monteros shouldn't be a hard grade.....just centering is the issue.....if you have a clean surface and slight right justified centering (what I believe they are looking for to reach a 10) left to right and 50-50 top and bottom or thereabouts, you should receive 15-18 9.5s without any problems. The 2008 Bowman Chromes grade at almost a 85%+ or higher clip. Just take your favorite player and look at the population report.

Yea, they all looked good. I am really hoping the orange and gold I sent in come back as 9.5s. The Blues are going to be very hard grades, the centering on most is brutal.

no xfractor line and great centering led me to send my 1 in. The base one that I had had slight centering issues so I passed on it.

yeah, i have seen alot of guys make tons of money off a rather low end card that grades like a 9.5. good luck to all who grade

FYI.....2007 was the last year of the xfractor lines.

I love sending in cards for grading...it's such a thrill when it comes back a 9.5 or better!
