Craig Roehrig: Verona, WI; Ebay: quality*cards, is a CARD DOCTOR (all PSA graded)

corndog · 02-08-2020, 11:27 AM

Longtime card dealer Craig Roehrig of Verona, Wisconsin has had an established relationship with PSA for many years and his company, Quality Cards, is a PSA dealer. Roehrig has had a reputation for dealing in high-end cards for several decades and is known for being the submitter to PSA for the grading of what became the 3rd PSA 10 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle card in 1999.

Roehrig's Ebay store user ID is quality*cards.
Roehrig buys with an unknown Ebay ID, which is masked in the Vintage Card Prices website (VCP) as c***1.

Alteration methods found so far include trimming, crease removal, coloring, stain removal/minimization and corner repair most likely from pressing.

In researching the various PSA numerically numbered submission runs, there is a mixture of cards being sold by quality*cards and Memory Lane Auctions, all purchased by the c***1 masked ID or an unknown ID if purchased from an auction house. He has also purchased raw cards which were discovered using the free CardTarget.Com website. I will post some of those later.

All altered cards found to date have been graded by PSA experts.

In two weeks of research I have uncovered a minimal amount of cards that can be confirmed as altered. There are many higher end cards in his PSA submissions but the lack of first purchase data is the result of many of those being purchased raw or through avenues where the online purchase data is not stored.
