Topps Sapphire Soccer

[CapeTownCards]

That’s true. Just follow this thread. The same 3 or 4 who were against it at the start are now looking more and more foolish, yet they keep resisting predicting that sapphire won’t succeed as a brand in soccer.
Shame. They missed out.

Well, you guys were right. PSA > BGS when it comes to higher end cards. Looks like my Sapphire Orange Parallel is going in for a Crossover. Hoping that with my Grades: 10,9,9.5,10 that it does cross to a 10. Part of my hesitation with PSA initially was that I’ve never submitted to them as I’ve only done BGS and SGC. Pretty lame excuse for it, but after looking into it, it’s really not that bad of a process.

A fellow member on here sold their PSA 10 Orange Fati for some pretty nice coin and extremely quick as well. Lesson learned here for next time.

You think psa up charges these earlier submissions with not many sales? I put $1499 for fati and $1299 haaland. There were no sales and not many listings when I filled it out

Wasting your money trying to cross. Need to crack it out.

That would suck for it to return a 9 after cracking. But such is the game when you grade.

Bought 2 boxes 2 weeks ago for just under 1K total because I saw a break online and also follow Haaland. Also a big plus that the rookies have the rookie logo on them. Watched the prices soar and contemplated selling. Finally got some top loaders and ripped one of the boxes last night. And got these 2 in the same pack. Can’t believe it. Definitely holding my second box unopened to watch the market. Anyone know what the turnaround time for super express is right now?

I would do a min grade so they only crack it out if it’s a 10. I’m fine taking the risk on losing the money to do it. Worse case the card comes back to me still in the BGS case

If you are into them for below $400 in cost, likelihood you do well or break even is high.

I think a picture with all of your boxes and a note with "thewall 1/14/21" and a middle finger would shut everyone up.

Haha. The photoshopped picture from a few days ago didn't convince you?!

Or saying he had 110 boxes. Then saying he was getting 50 more for a total of 150? Perhaps he's just not great at basic addition.

But he's right. Post a picture, me and everyone else eats crow.

I feel so stupid, i sent a card to PC sportscards express last week, instead of just straight to PSA. now operations are suspended for two weeks because of covid. They are going to have a tough time catching up in two weeks. They haven't been able to keep up working full time.

At that point if you’re needing to super express, you should always send yourself. Likelihood you have a ton to super express is minimal and costs don’t change between personal and group subbers super express.

Express, not super. Don't think they offer a super express(not that I've seen at least)

Same position but slightly(perhaps) worse. I dropped 3 Fati and 2 Haaland in the mail Monday for an express through Jewcer. I saw the email MAYBE 20 minutes after I got home. Doh!

In the end, we all need to just hope all the staff is OK. Fati and Haaland 10's will still be plenty high in a few months .

If my understanding, super express is 2 day unless they advertise it as express. 5-day is what I deemed as express. PSA offers 2 day services at $200 a pop and it’s not any different from subbers and personals

Right. I'm saying the service he sent to(pcsportscards) doesn't offer super express. Only express. One is $200 & the other is $65(through Jewcer). Pretty sure super express guys have been getting cards popping in that small time frame of 2-4 days. Express, even though Jewcer, is taking more along the lines of 2-3 weeks(or more).
