what did grading it run you?

 

[ChiSoxFan]

what did grading it run you?

$35 roughly for this one card, $20 for the actual grading service, and the rest for shipping and insurance. I used HGA for this particular card. They are newer and becoming popular. PSA is the company most people would say is the Nike of grading. Only problem is they are super expensive and you may get your card bank in 6 months, maybe.

Yeah PSA has a huge backog but I want to make sure I pick the right company since this card has solid value

My old lady gets me peanut M&M's for my birthday because there is never anything I want. One of those bigass family size bags. I eat every...single...one...before the day ends. Like popcorn. It is truly a glorious day. If one of these came with it though...It would be an even more glorious occasion.

Hold on to that one trudem.

Yeah, I have a few PSA Robert RCs. They just take too long still and the price is crazy.

My wife gets me a hooker every year for my birthday.

You know, those curvy things you hang a coat on.

I have a couple. I had a /25 Clemens auto and I hate the guy so I was able to land a couple Eloy autos and some cash. Good trade imo

This thread reminds me. The White Sox tried to con me into some Guaranteed Rate Field "NFT" scams....I did not buy any and wish a pox upon whoever came up with that idea.

that's rather fantastic.

i wouldn't. cost a bunch to rate, takes over a year (mine too 14 months), chances of losing it are decent (or having it switched ... it happens! ... and why? he's not going to sell it.

also if it comes back anything less than ten it's a total waste.

Look...I'm with you on the fan ripoff thing...But these things are truly special that they stand out in their ripoffedness.
