If any of you check the vintage boards, you'd know that I was very unhappy with the popped grades I recieved on this submission. Got the cards in today, and unfortunetly there was no mistake in the popped grades.

I don't know what the problem was, but most of these grades are very questionable IMO. This has somewhat shattered my confidence in PSA. I just renewed my membership, and these were on free vouchers which coeincidently always turn up less than par grades for me.

Anyways you be the judge, and see the horrible grading on this submission. The Rose & B.Williams for example were chosen specifically for their grade. I guess I was wrong. I'll list fronts and backs.

My scanner tends to make corners look like they're bending. The Billy Williams for exapmle has 2 sharp corners & 2 slightly dinged corners.


1964 Topps Billy Williams, I have PSA 8's that look as good or worse than this. The scratch lines are on the case not the card

1955 Topps Jackie Robinson, Possibly the best PSA 3 ever

1969 Topps Pete Rose, They damaged the corners during grading. I took scans before packing them out. Still the best 5 I've ever seen

1958 Topps Hank Aaron, Again was expecting a 5 making this the least disappointing card.

1957 Topps Mickey Mantle, there are a few creases, expected a 2 with e very slighht chance of a 3.

1957 Topps Willie Mays, I had a hunch it was trimmed, now I know. It looked wierd to me, vintage collectors will know what I mean. Like the card was off-center but not :? O well

I don't even know if its worth selling now. The card should be a 5 or 6 at the worst. Pm me if you want to work something out for it. I'd be interested in selling or maybe trading for the guys in my sig & 1957 Topps

Its as if a new person was learning how to grade cards that day - that person bent up your card and gave terrible grades. Ouch. Resubmit?

shanks: I feel I got hosed, and it has a nice sense of relief to see someone else feels the same way

uniquebaseballcards: I may re-submit, not sure as of yet. I almost want to keep the Williams in a PSA 2 because of how ridiculous it is.

huff: I plan on hosting another submission with a a couple buddies on here, and I'll be in the process of contacting them when the time comes. These grades just blew my mind, and as the OP above, it seemed like the grader was a guy being trained in that day
