CONTEST WINNERS ANNOUNCED !!!

[2014BESTSERVICE]

A while ago I offered some prizes for a grading contest,,,,, just reviewed the poppage results on my 290 card order,,,,, we have TONS of freebie single card gradings,,,,,, and for the first time in FOUR years someone guessed the gem total correctly,,,,,, but missed the card itself--- would been great to give that Grand Prize away!! Anyways that guesser gets THREE free gradings

Below is the guesses made by entrants,,,, card along with gem totals,,,,,,
IF YOUR NAME IS BOLDED YOU WON FREE GRADING OF 1 ITEM

1ST Prize Winner- KBOB119 - 5 free gradings
2nd Prize Winner - tick tock man- 3 free gradings
3rd prize winner---nevermore - 2 free gradings

CORRECT GEM GUESS--- Carolina Bosox !! 3 free gradings !!!
GRAND PRIZE-- NONE

Just remember=== closest to the total AND had to guess a gem correctly,,,,, means just 12 people were eligible,,,,,

Thanks to all !!! Free gradings are going on an order June 19th, 45 day $5 bulk sub,,,, so you have about 3 weeks to send me the card(s),,,,,, my address is as follows:

JEFF VERRIER
1200 W CHEYENNE AVE # 1072
NORTH LAS VEGAS, NV 89030-7873

Surprised not one person asked about specific issues,,,, some of these folks are nearly impossible to Gem out on,,,, others are easy PROVIDED I have control from pack to card saver,,,, I pack pulled very few of these,,,,, so many low grades were not surprises at all they were fully expected,,,,,,

Just wondering if the cards have been sent in? Is an estimated return date given?

 

[nevermore]

Jeff, thank you for the contest! I will decide what two cards to send you and get something out this week.

Oh crap! I completely forgot about this. :?

 

[CAROLINA BOSOX]

Has anyone heard from Jeff about when the cards might return? Should be soon right?

 

[jdpreas]

Jeff did you get my card?

Thanks,

Dan

 

[craiger122003]

Congrats on the nice grades OP damn you live about 3 or 4 miles from me I am at craig/simmons Do you go to many 51's games?

 

[CAROLINA BOSOX]

I knew it was a 45 day sub but didn't know that weekends weren't included. I thought the day was getting close and didn't realize you had to wait a little longer to submit. I wasn't trying to be a pain just wanted to know an approx date of when the grades might be known. Again thank you for the contest and taking your times to do this. I appreciate it.

 

[notoriousrmb]

Hopefully any day now..I'm getting pumped! But knowing how I've never done this before watch my card come back a 7 ::facepalm::

 

[AndruwHRJones]

When are these due Jeff? Not in a rush, just curious more than anything. It seems like they should be due soon, hope everyone did well!

 

[Y4NK335]

When are these due Jeff? Not in a rush, just curious more than anything. It seems like they should be due soon, hope everyone did well!

Should be fun to see how we did.

 

[AndruwHRJones]

Actually unless someone else submitted a 1998 Pinnacle Totally Certified Platinum Gold Test Issue? #'d 30 recently, I think my submission graded out a 9.5. There was previously only one BGS 9 graded, now I see a 9.5 in the population report. Hopefully it is mine!
