Threads 2008 Grading question

RCRX said:

How hard are these to grade out?? I have a few Jennings and Brown that might be worth slabbing. Not really sure what to look for since there really is no centering. Normally I submit on centering and decent edges and decent surface..cant really tell with these.
Centering depends on the team name centered at top of card??
Thanks

Corners are number one and surface is number two.

Those corners are brutal.....I just received a jennings back from bgs 9.5 but it wasn't easy.

I think I had 6 and only one made the cut.

back especially. the back corner are esp. bad on most 08 dlp products. leaf limited the worst.

They are pretty leiniant with the grading for the back corners unless it is leaf limited or elite, the mirrored front surface is BRUTAL to grade.....look at the card under BRIGHT light and hold the card at different angles......do not send these in blindly for you will lose tons of money when you receive 8.5s and 9.0s that have no premium.
