RE: Opinions on grading please help!
Sorry, but I think the Peavy is a 9 at best. If it has surface flaws (and almost all chromes do) It will get a 9 on that as well. Two 9 grades and it will be a 9.0 even if you get 10s for corners and edges.
9 isn't the worst score for a pc item, but if you are looking for a resale then I wouldn't grade it.
Good luck!

For the sale price why not do it all? I am not into graded cards but if it is PC Beckett slabs are amazing protection...
Justify it like this... Minus the price it would cost you to buy screw downs..... You are only paying 5.50 a piece to have cards graded?

You can specify a minimum grade and if it doesn't reach it, then they won't slab it. Of course, I think that you still get charged as if they did slab it.
I'm completely all in on graded cards. So me personally, I wouldn't get any of them graded. I don't want to bust your chops or anything.
I hope that this helps.

I hope that this helps. yeah I heard that once. but can't you tell them to just authenticate it if it doesn't reach your grade?

Yes you can. I just didn't mention it b/c you said you didn't like the white paper labels. The authenticate labels are even worse. They are blue paper labels.
