March 20 Day BGS Group Submission (Payments due!) - aviat0rshades - 02-05-2015
Alright, time for another group submission! This will be a 20 day submission with the tentative ship date of March 6th! This will give you about a month and a half to get the cards shipped to me to get sent in. The rate is 8 dollars per card plus 1 dollar for an auto. Here are the ground rules. Things will be run a bit different this time so that I can keep track of things a little easier and not ask you guys a million times for your addresses. Please read below and at the end, there is a link to a survey. If you plan on being a part of this submission, complete the survey when you know what cards you plan to submit.
1. Please do not send me your cards postage due.
2. Don't overvalue your cards please and use current sales values as a tool to figuring out an insurance amount. If you over insure your cards you will be paying more for insurance. Remember, I weight the insurance cost so that someone who is submitting two cards isn't paying all the insurance for someone submitting 20.
3. If you have a minimum grade requirement, please indicate so in the survey. Once you have indicated that minimum there will be NO CHANGES. It really slows things down having to redo paperwork so please know what you want and stick to it.
4. I will provide a total that you owe. Please pay promptly. You can pay me by paypal but please gift it otherwise there is a fee associated and that will drive prices up as well. My paypal email is guthrie.jasone@gmail.com. I WILL NOT SHIP YOUR CARDS WITH THE GROUP SUBMISSION UNLESS YOU HAVE PAID.
5. PLEASE package your cards to me how you'd like them to be packaged and sent to Beckett. I will take them exactly as you shipped them and ship them to Beckett that way. I will not be taking anyone's cards out of top loaders, one touches or card savers. I don't want there to be any way that I somehow mess up one of your cards. Remember, any top loaders or magnetic one touches WILL NOT COME BACK.
6. I will use your insurance value you provide for shipment back to you as well. All cards will be shipped in a flat rate box if I can fit them. If you are only sending a few cards, I will send them in a bubble mailer.
7. When I hear things, you'll hear them. Any updates will be posted here in this forum. But this is usually how things go with Beckett. Cards are sent. 3 days later Beckett receives them. 18 to 19 days after they receive them, I will get an email telling me they have them. 20 days after they receive them, I will get an email with the grades. So likely, you will see an update on here when they are shipped, received, and when grades come down.
8. If there is any interest, I may do a live break. If you would like to know your grades right away please indicate so in the survey
9. Again, this will cost $8 per card and an additional $1 for an auto. This cost does not include shipping and insurance.
10. If more than one of the same card that does not have a serial number is submitted by more than one person, the first person to have it listed on here will be the one that gets to submit it. Basically first come first serve. This will eliminate any mix-ups that might occur with having the same card.
11. Important! The shipping and insurance rates will be weighted this time around. This means, if you are sending a ton of cards worth a ton of money, you will be paying more for insurance and shipping than someone who is only shipping a few cards. AGAIN. DON'T OVERVALUE YOUR CARDS. After I have received everyone's cards and have figured out the total insurance and shipping, I will do some amazing math and post it up for everyone to see so they know exactly how much they owe.
Please know that I will be inspecting your cards upon arrival for damaged corners or surface damage, just in case you might have missed it (in a general way, not a grading inspection kind of way). I'm being asked to do this to prevent any claims that damage occurred while your cards are in BGS possession. Of course, should anything go wrong with your card while there, I'll get you in touch with the appropriate people who can handle the issues. I suggest that you take some high resolution scans of your cards just prior to mailing, it helps to have some backup if needed. Should something go wrong, I would appreciate your patience while the problems are resolved. I don't enjoy dealing with the damage any more than you do...
My shipping address is as follows
Jason Guthrie
819 Ebbets Dr SW
Tumwater, WA 98512
If you have any questions, please send me a PM or post here and I'll get back with you as fast as I can. I'll keep your identity private for anyone that requests it. Lets get this going!

I am swamped this week as well but should be able to get my submission ready next weekend and out next Monday.
Any idea if you'll get enough cards in time? I sincerely hope so!

I will ship regardless. I just like to try and get 100 so that my rep will continue to give me a good rate.

I have a 98-99 Finest Box Topper Refractor. It is an oversized card. I know BGS will slab them. Can that be included in this? It's larger than a standard card, but smaller than a 5X7

According to my form, anything over a 3x5 would be considered "oversize" and would be an additional $12.

Okay, sorry I missed that.
