4 1 63758172 GEM MINT 10 2015 Upper Deck 206 Mikko Rantanen Card
5 1 63758173 GEM MINT 10 2019 Upper Deck 201 Jack Hughes Card

Only really bummer was the Giannis, I paid a buddy strong for that card as I inspected heavily and saw nothing to prevent a 10.

The Jefferson I had on eBay for close to a year... never getting anything other than low ball offers and requests for hi-res corner scans and questions about print lines and surface scratches. I always told people I believed the card was strong and I wouldn't go low on it... no one made a solid offer. Now, at $50/card, it was worth submitting myself... glad I did!

I have so much money tied up in that Herbert, I'll probably be sitting on it for years to come, so at $50/card, why not slab it. Very happy with the 9 on that one.

With PSA closed for the better part of a year, money that would normally have went to grading... went to playing around on Upper Deck ePack. I'm sitting on a bunch of Young Guns from the last few years in my "whenever PSA comes back to affordable prices" pile. Thought I'd test out a couple that were justifiable at $50/card. Happy with those results!

PS - My second allocation, logged 2/16, moved to assembly today!
Ughh... PSA photos are up now...



Yeah, I'd expect the 9 with the back left corner looking like that...

Problem is... and I've posted ad nausea here about checking the backs of cards... there is a 0.00% chance I would have sent that particular card, at a $50 submission fee, with a touched corner like that
