[@ItsMeMatt1986]

Great content and collection!!

[@medfordcollectibles]

Thanks for watching!

[@bobo44donemilking51]

I just got my 1968 Topps Bob Gibson back and it graded PSA 8 my yaz got a 7 🎯

[@medfordcollectibles]

Congrats on those and thanks for watching!

[@marcusbrooks7861]

The Gibson should get you $300

[@threeg6966]

I have a lot of these same cards in my collection, all ungraded though. Thanks for showing.

[@medfordcollectibles]

Nice! Thanks for watching

[@notta3d]

Some of these you have to shake your head at. That Van Slyke looked perfect. You have to think they secretly say we can't grade too many 10's or it will flood the market. Also you kept saying Molitor rookie when another hall of fame player was on the card :)

[@medfordcollectibles]

Yeah definitely more difficult on the older cards. And I apologize for misspeaking on the Trammell rookie card. Thanks for watching

[@jbscardbreaks4389]

I might have to start buying csg vintage in there old green labels.

[@medfordcollectibles]

Certainly not a bad strategy if you can get them at the right price. Thanks for watching!

[@deanjackson625]

Hello the quality of the 360 needs to be redone because it buffering and can't watch the video on psa card submissions returned. Thanks

[@medfordcollectibles]

Sorry Dean...Try again in about 30 minutes. The video is still processing up to 4K. Sorry for the issue and thanks for watching!

[@TheCardDeal]

I know PSA doesn't take notes but a simple marker and a circle over a card saver to show what was colored.

[@medfordcollectibles]

It would certainly help me on that Gibson…I still can’t see it. Thanks for watching!

[@marcusbrooks7861]

I collect only high quality vintage and I only grade vintage which will land me 5s or better. And I really concentrate on submitting centered cards.

[@medfordcollectibles]

Same for the most part but I do make plenty of exceptions for pre-war or popular hall of famers.

[@constipatedinsincity4424]

Hey fella nice v.I am a grader for SGC and I graded 19,750 I receive 250 cards twice a month! I have a few Tony Gwynn

[@medfordcollectibles]

That’s a lot of graded cards…I can barely find time to submit 100. Thanks for watching!

[@randylemon3747]

Great video. Thanks

[@medfordcollectibles]

Thanks Randy!

[@Nerdsplayingcards]

Nice Cal rc, hope u find a psa 10

[@medfordcollectibles]

Thanks!

[@tyreesneed]

when did Rafael palmeiro get into the hall of fame? I was un-aware that he ever got in to the hall of fame? I couldn't help hearing you mention hes in the Hall of fame when you got to his donruss rated rookie.

[@medfordcollectibles]

That was a mistake. I sincerely apologize

[@marcusbrooks7861]

If you collect vintage, make sure you don't send cards with obvious flaws unless the cards price between $500 or more. Sending $100-300 cards that have writing, rips, defined creases, tears or pinholes will literally lose you money on resell.

[@medfordcollectibles]

Thanks for the advice Marcus...I've had a different experience than you on this one. I find it way easier to move vintage graded cards on eBay than raw ones, even when the value is under $500. It may be different if I were selling in person or through other channels but eBay is my main focus. Thanks for watching!

[@marcusbrooks7861]

@@medfordcollectibles Every experience is different. You can make great profits on high numbers and tough commons in nice shape. Lower grade vintage sells but they sell for lower prices.

[@earthleo1149]

hey man good video. Thanks for sharing. Do you think the amount of vintage cards prevented you from getting higher grades? Graders have their thoughts and patterns. They know they are the 'population control valve' for all graded cards. Vintage cards are done by graders with a lot of experience and probably collectors or hobbyists themselves. If they get a bulk order of vintage cards; that could make them close this pop control valve versus if 5 of your best ones were sent in by themselves along with some modern ones, would they be 'throttled' differently??.... Been thinking a ton about various ways to submit and increase chances and was just tossing ideas around. Anyways, take care.

[@medfordcollectibles]

I’m not sure if the pop control thing is real or not. I’ve had cards get higher and cards get lower than what I expected, so I think they just make mistakes sometimes and I probably miss some things other times. Thanks for watching!

[@FDLrick]

CSG is tough.

[@medfordcollectibles]

Certainly seems that way after some of the crossovers in this video. Thanks for watching!

[@Rebel_Scum1]

I have a question for you on sending cards in. I have a bunch of Gwynn/Boggs/Sandberg rookies and they're all pristine as far as condition. Sharp corners, no problems with edges. But they're all very noticeably off center. I'm talking like 70-30 on most. Do you still send stuff like that in or is it better to just sell raw?

[@medfordcollectibles]

Probably better off just selling raw if they are noticeably off center. The 80s stuff is tough enough to get good grades even when they are centered from my experience on them. Good luck on them either way and thanks for watching!

[@ScottEOsSportsballCards]

Probably wouldn't be 10s, but could still be worth grading. Take a guess and check Ebay prices for that grade. If you can double your money I say do it.

[@medfordcollectibles]

@ScottEOsSportsballCards agreed

[@TheRealDealMemorabilia]

I like how the Molitor RC wasn't the Trammell/ Molitor RC as it's called in Michigan lol, Trammell is in the HOF, and getting no love here JK, I loved the video and cost/ value numbers you shared

[@medfordcollectibles]

Thanks for watching and Trammell is definitely one of the more forgotten HOFers for some reason. I’ll make sure it doesn’t happen again. Haha

[@ryanmoe5302]

It’s unfortunate the monitor/tram rookie had so many printing issues. In my opinion that card is one of the most undervalued cards around. Amazing to have to great HoF’ers in the same rookie card.

[@medfordcollectibles]

@ryanmoe5302 agreed and very difficult to find in good condition.

[@ryanmoe5302]

@@medfordcollectiblesbefore tram got written in I stacked a dozen psa 8’s thinking someday the card world would wake up to Molly being 10th in the all time hit list with tram as a bonus. Have got a triple on that stack but it’s still worth double. The card world moves on trends I guess. Look how long it took everyone to catch on to Rickey Henderson’s rookie. I’m holding out till I’m right. Which might not ever happen…lol

[@medfordcollectibles]

@ryanmoe5302 Haha stay strong.

[@joshvassar8332]

After lying to congress about juicing Palmero will never get into the hall. Love the video tho

[@medfordcollectibles]

Yeah pretty dumb mistake on his part…could still be a chance for Palmeiro, Bonds, Clemens, ARod, etc down the road but it’s a long shot. Thanks for watching!

[@calliopivogiatzis2235]

If you have a George McGinnis basketball card,it may appreciate in value since he has passed

[@medfordcollectibles]

Thanks for the info

[@rayfromphilly6969]

nice reveal. Are you gonna sell the 68 Carew?

[@medfordcollectibles]

Thanks and I already sold the Carew unfortunately. I figured it wouldn’t last long. Thanks for watching!

[@rockcundiff1761]

You THINK 6K "in value".....wait until you try to sell, will be more like $1,800

[@medfordcollectibles]

Already surpassed $1800 after fees with 35 of the cards…would agree if I were trying to sell in bulk but I list and sell individually. Thanks for watching!

[@ScottEOsSportsballCards]

So your expert assessment is that these cards are worth less than $16 a piece on average? Sounds like you need to check your math and your ego. If you have nothing smart to say, maybe just don't say it.

[@medfordcollectibles]

@ScottEOsSportsballCards 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Marchand848]

Only in America do they actually have Judge trading cards! Can you imagine kids running around trading Judge cards with each other? That just seems strange to me

[@medfordcollectibles]

They have cards of pretty much anything you can think of nowadays. Thanks for watching!

[@keithroller3131]

Sad that it’s all about the money! Personally I do this for my kids !

[@medfordcollectibles]

It’s certainly not all about the money but I do like to fund my hall of fame collection and all the cards I buy for the kids by selling things when I can. Thanks for watching!

[@ScottEOsSportsballCards]

Why is a PSA reveal that discusses cost and value sad? Congrats to the father of the year, but grading has a cost, cards have a value. Sounds like your horse is high sir.

[@charlesmurphy1840]

Funny I only grade with cgc anymore and if sell I only will take the same price as psa .as evidence from your video psa just not good anymore and cgc is more accurate with grading

[@medfordcollectibles]

I’ve done some with CGC as well. I like the slabs but they tend to be a little harder to sell for me. Thanks for watching!

[@Opticprizm]

Wow PSA is super harsh on those older cards, they looked better then a 3 but then again I'm not seeing them under a microscope

[@medfordcollectibles]

Yes they are pretty strict sometimes but I’ve also seen it go the other way on some orders. It probably all evens out if you send a bunch.

[@DumpsterDivin_Ty]

Medford Mass? I'm in sutton lol

[@medfordcollectibles]

No it was Medford, NJ but I’ve since moved to Charlotte, NC. Thanks for watching!

[@deezihogan8675]

Medford Oregon?

[@medfordcollectibles]

No, used to be Medford, NJ but have since relocated to the Charlotte, NC area. Just decided to keep the name. Thanks for watching!

Palmeiro isn’t a HOFer

[@medfordcollectibles]

That’s correct. Would be if it weren’t for the roids. Thanks for watching!

[@jude999]

You need better light. Hard to see cards.

[@medfordcollectibles]

Got it…I’ll try to make it better for the next one. Thanks for watching!

Damn judging by the comments sounds like a lot of guys are jealous of your collection…😂

[@Hollywood5453]

Stop using PSA…… I literally opened a brand new pack of 1990 upper deck and sent in a BRAND NEW card… got a 7…… sent in an original I bought in 90… got a 9🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ stop wasting time with PSA …

[@medfordcollectibles]

I’ve had good and bad luck as well. I’m not going to stop using them because they bring the best value for cards I want to sell, like them or not. I agree you should do whatever you feel is best for your cards though. Thanks for watching!

[@1983aw]

Psa has a habit of damaging cards.

When you grade Millions of cards per year, it’s bound to happen. The more important thing is how it’s handled when the inevitable mistake is made. Thanks for watching!
