When I hear that the big guys who submit in volume get steep discounts, it makes sense that cards like this can be submitted.
I'm glad that I picked these cards up in a lot because they look great but I still have yet to submit a card for grading.
Have you submitted Kellogg's cards?
What would be the newest cards that you would consider submitted from the Kellogg's sets, not counting the Clementes from the 1990s?
I have submitted cards for grading, but it was back when it was cheaper and I had a friend with a card shop who submitted in bulk. In general, the cards are well protected and over a period of 15-20 years I've only ever had two develop a crack after grading. My strategy was to get the early sets completed first because I thought the later sets would be cheaper. That hasn't turned out to be the case and the later sets seem to be harder to get in 9s and 10s. Maybe due to the perforation? The grading process is pretty consistent but not perfect - I have a PSA 6 Babe Ruth that looks like a 10 to me. Have no idea why they made it a 6. The newest card I've ever submitted was a 91 Willie Mays and got a 10. If you are going to submit read all the recommendations out on the web for preparing your Kelloggs cards (e.g., using a lint removal roll to get any dust off the front of card, make sure the card is absolutely crack free, etc.).
ReplyDeleteI always wanted to complete 70-83 in PSA 9s. I've finished up to 77 and just need Luzinski to complete 78. I'm about 50% on the rest of the years and I don't know if I'll ever finish them.
