hello to all. well i decided to break down this christmas and some cards for myself from the bay. always wanted the mantle's and the aaron and well as the willie mays. so i went ahead and bought some. didnt spend as much as i thought. so i will share some with you. this one 1963 Bombers Best. now the card has been graded by BCG. dont know much about them. and i dont like the fact that the card is moving freely in the holder.
should i get it re-graded? the grade right now says a 9.
let me know.
and here is another one that i bought. 1962 american league all star. the card looks really great for the year.
enjoy

I would definitely re-grade the BCG, I've never even heard of them (be careful removing it!). Probably PSA or BVG would be the way to go

any suggestions on how to break the case?

Hammer!!!!! lol no I heard a table saw or a hand jig saw works best.

thanks. and knowing my luck with the hammer, i'd miss and hit my finger and mess up the card

band saw works too if you have one

you won't get a 9 by the better companies but even at a smaller grade its better than a 9 by that company

I heard a while back about putting it in the freezer for like 10 minutes then tap the side of the case on something hard to break loose the glue. Let me try it first I have a card that is a common that is graded by them I will let you know how it works.

I also heard you can resend the to BVG or PSA and they will remove the card themselves.

I just want you to know this was read say not that I have done either one.

Next I dont think you will get a 9 because one reason it is way off centered.

Thanks for the help everyone. And let me know about the freezer trick.

Very nice P/U's
