just got this in, my Rocket Richard 2nd year card. it's an SGC 1, some paper loss and a rough corner, but i don't mind at all. the center image is in great condition.

Got my COMC order in today. Finally got a stunning Payton rookie! Some minor surface issues brought the grade down. The Rose is centered beautifully, and I am having issues seeing the surface issues bringing it down to a 5. Some raw cards I got as well. The Averill surface is unbelievable and finding 1973 Topps like Ham/Fisk in this condition/centered raw was a great surprise. Also got a ton of 1980's HOF RC's that were 90% gradable. Need prices at SGC/CSG to drop!!!

A bunch of additions for Yankees team sets at the National, partially thanks to a fellow board member.

Got these off of eBay and the surfaces look great! Starting a new pile of cards to grade for the $10-$12 price point.

I just bought this "54" Ted Williams. Curious to see how it looks out of the scuffed screw down. Asked no questions, took a chance!

Card came in on Thursday and was sent to PSA Friday morning.

Any guesses on grade? I’m hoping for a 2

^ Looks two-worthy. Top border looks rough, could be a 1.5.

Got this survivor in today. Non-recessed (obviously), and one screw was pretty tight. Probably 4-4.5 technical grade, but NM-sharpness, no creases.
