I just checked with beckett grading and they won't let me drop ship cards from my eTopps portfolio to them.

Bowman Sterling usually grade out very well. Some of the Aflac game giveaways not the Auto'd ones can grade out nicely.

Just about any rookie card is a good card to get graded as long as it's in good condition. I wouldn't submit anything that I didn't look over carefully. You should be able to pull a premium for almost all rookie cards that get a 9.5 or better.

I'm curious (and probably inexperienced) but why not Razor? :? :?

I've seen some nice cards pulled & thought that they would grade out nicely....

The quality of the cards are nice, and they have been producing a better checklst of rookies.

I personally was going to get 10 of these graded for my PC

Overall they have some chipping which would hurt the edges grade.

Yeah and any auto that goes out of the box wouldn't get a 10.

Exquisites don't grade that well, major chipping and corner damage. Bowman Sterling grades extremely well. If by Bowman you mean base Bowman they're not really worth grading.

ok....they already come in a plastic case and are marketed as "mint". Does grading them really help? I just don't see the benefit on that particular card.

Most etopps card grade out at about 8.5 or 9, something like a 9.5 or god forbid a 10 would bring a nice premium.

I generally don't grade stuff for my PC but I love this card so much I thought I would splurge

Since Beckett and etopps both had big sales this month I'm sending 50 etopps cards in for grading.


wish me luck
