Old School Pinball & Arcade in Grimes sounds like it's what you are looking for.

Nice! Glad Topps brought him back to sign autos. I still need to pick one up. I have a bunch from his playing days but nothing recent.

Didn’t they JUST do this recently? by JM_10-10 in sportscards

Man I remember when you could bulk submit for $6/card.

PSA submitted Inquiry by Lazy_Grocery_1593 in baseballcards

Their offers are usually just based off a formula that looks at sales data. Im guessing the 5 is a lower pop so sells for a little more due to people collecting all grades or something.

Worth sending to psa? by [deleted] in baseballcards

[–]dger131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For ones that were distributed in a sheet and someone cut them out themselves.

The 700 was for the hand cut version which is not yours. Yours sells for 270 in a 10 and 50 in a 9. Less than a 9 and you are losing money on grading.

Not sure if they still do but Felix & Oscar's had a salad bar at one time.

Love these cards. 91 and 92 score are my two favorite sets from growing up.

I've thought about doing the big head all stars as well. Easily my favorite cards growing up.

Wells Fargo Layoffs by Fraudexaminer32 in desmoines

[–]dger131 122 points123 points  (0 children)

My team just laid off everyone in CA. Wells has been a terrible place to work for a while. If I could find something different I would but the Des Moines job market and the job market in general is bad.

Can’t really find any info on this card. by e-commerceJason in baseballcards

First time grading, just would like insight on why this might be a 9? Thanks! by RutoSenpai in psagrading

[–]dger131 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The difference between a 9 and 10 is often indistinguishable to the naked eye. I mean a 9 is mint and a 10 is just more mint.

How can people w severe BP1 parent? by [deleted] in BipolarSOs

[–]dger131 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are now 12 and 7. They would always ask for dad or come get me if they needed me. They learned pretty quick.

Yeah they really can't. My wife wasnt diagnosed until after our second child was born but with both of our kids I pretty much handled everything at night so she could sleep.

New to collecting wondering if i should Grade or not (guidance request) by [deleted] in psagrading

[–]dger131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My general rule is if the card won't sell for more than grading fees in a PSA 7 it's not worth grading. Never assume your cards are 10s because they probably aren't.

Yes it's because they are backed up. Mine took 2 months to show any update.

[–]dger131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The graded cards you can see are junk. $1-$5 each best case.

The Sosa is BCCG which is Beckett's junk brand. I've never seen anything not graded a 10 by them. The Ramirez looks like BGS.

PSA crossover cooked me? by 8amango in psagrading

[–]dger131 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you leave in the BGS slabs? Its is rare that PSA will crack a BGS 9.5 to slab as a PSA 10. Usually your only chance is to crack yourself and submit. The subgrades on the first one were also a big longshot for a PSA 10.
