Should I send my LT/ Dorsett in for grading???

[trojanfan43]

The scan is actually pretty sweet.....the edges and corners are sharp as hell and the surface looks great.......what do you think it will grade?

Thanks in advance!:salut:

hard to see with the white background. Does the top left corner look good in person? Be very picky!!

Yes....the scan looked better on the other site....I'll get the link and paste it here.

get a magnifying glass and look at the surface and edges through it

oh no, card is nice, but I don't see its' value being dramatically altered by slabbing.

I'm not a grading expert so that's why I ask.....never submitted anything before....so I really do appreciate the help you guys have for me here:salut:

ditto that. It'd be nice to have it slabbed for preservation purposes, but I think that card would bring the same coin regardless. Although, I could wrong, it's happened a couple times before

 

[pence23]

they make a good point, maybe if it came back pristine

just so you know, there is absolutely nothing wrong with slabbing for protection, but you can also get things authenticated (slabbed), but I don't like those holders after all sooo your choice but be aware

I would leave it as is. The only cards that seem to sell well after being graded are rookies.

I would send it to Ryo1549.


Seriously though grading a brand new auto insert really isn't all that beneficial. If you plan to keep it and just want it slabbed then by all means i'd say go for it, but if you're just going to sell it then the money spent to grade + the time just may not be worth it in the long run.

cause remember beckett slabbing have been known to withstand hurricane force winds :lollol::lollol::lollol::lollol:

i couldn't resist, maybe they can withstand a hurricane but not Jasoncaine

don't think slabbing will add a whole lot of sell value to it.

if you are looking for protection, i put a penny sleeve over the auto side, just lay it across the auto so there is something between the auto and the underside of the magnetic holder, and i put them in a one touch and put them inside a 3/14 x 5+1 bag (super snug fit) and store it that way
