Anticipation - dmasci - 03-17-2015

I have long stopped buying wax packs but I remember the anticipation of opening a pack and pulling a good card. For me, I think it's somewhat the same in sending my cards in to be graded.

I am working on a graded set, 1958 Topps Football and if I don't buy the card already graded I am normally buying it off ebay and hoping for the best based on the pictures provided. I am trying to make this set BVG 7 and above and it's so hard to tell what these old cards are going to grade out as.

I sent a group in and will be receiving them back today, of course I already know the grades from the email they sent me. I'm pretty pleased with the grades only 2 are coming back below 7 but.....now that I know the grades the excitement is gone. I now have to hunt for more and put enough together for another shipment...

Just some morning thoughts

It's called an addiction. I have the same one!

I would love to get a complete cycle going where I send a shipment out every week and I get one back every month! I think I have the same addition as you guys! It would be great to make weekly group submissions kind of like the group breaks!
