Well my grades popped a day early so I am happy about that but am just so-so about the results. It was my first submission so I guess I am happy with the results. I did a 25 card submission with a minimum grade of 9.

Here are the results

Michael Bowden Bowman Sterling--9.0
Clay Buchholz Bowman Chrome--not met
Micael Bowden Blue Refractor--9.0
Michael Bowden Bowman Chrome x8--5 not met, 2 9.0, 1 9.5
Jason Heyward 07 BCDP ref--not met (Didn't think it would)
Jason Heyward 07 BCDP chrome--9.5
07 Danny Rams BCDP Blue ref--9.5
07 BCDP Madison Bumgarner ref--not met
07 BCDP Madison Bumgarner chrome--9
Aaron Poreda 07 BCDP Blue ref auto--9.5
07 BCDP David Price xfractor--9.5
07 BCDP Tim Alderson xfrac auto--9.0
07 BCDP Freddie Freeman Ref--9.0
07 BCDP Matt Laporta ref--9.0
07 BCDP Clayton Mortensen ref auto--9.0
Austin Gallagher 07 draft orange ref--9.0
07 BCDP Andrew Lambo Gold ref--not met
07 BCDP Michael Moustakas chrome--9.0

So overall i guess it was ok. Here are the overall results
9 didn't meed the minimum grade
9 9.0
7 9.5

Any opinions are welcomed. Hopefully my 08 case tomorrow provides better results

One of the Bowden chromes subs were 10, 9.5, 9.5 and 8 on the surface so ill prob resubmit that after cleaning the surface again
Another Bowden was 9.5, 9.5, 9.5, 8 on surface
The price xfractor was 10, 9.5, 10, 9 on surface (If that had been a 9.5 would it have gotten a 10?
Freeman ref was 9, 9.5, 9.5, 9 on surface (Might resubmit)
Mortensen ref was 9, 9, 9.5, 9 (might resubmit to get it to a 9.5)
Gallagher orange ref was 9, 9, 9.5, 9 (might resubmit to get it to a 9.5)

Since you aren't getting much else feedback, I'll share some results I had.Really a mixed bag, some graded better than I thought they would and some didn't grade as high as I thought they would.I think I had 4 8.5's out of the 54 I sent.

I, too, submitted a bunch of cards.Unfortunately, I didn't set minimum grade and a few of them came back 8.5 (I thought they would come back at least a 9).Some of the Bowman Sterling cards got hammered on the centering, and a couple Bowman's Best got hit hard with the corners (those always chip easily).I did get some gems on some lower end rookie cards and even hit a pristine on one of them.

Did you notice some lent/dirt/plastic trapped inside many of your slabs?I know all the cards I sent were clean, seems like BGS inner sleeves collected dust or some particles on them.I certainly did, and am not happy about that.One even had some ugly piece of plastic stuck in it.
