[QUOTE="BaseballGames, post: 6071642, member: 7826"]You could also register (and ask for advice) at Net54 -- [URL]https://www.net54baseball.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2[/URL] [URL]https://www.net54baseball.com/forumdisplay.php?f=5[/URL] -- extremely knowledgeable advanced collectors there. We're pretty sure PSA [URL]https://www.psacard.com/services/tradingcardgrading[/URL] is not the only company that will grade and encapsulate pins, which are a hugely popular collectible in the sports memorabilia hobby. You would do well to ask about SGC [URL]https://www.gosgc.com/[/URL] which runs second to only PSA in volume of business and which many collectors prefer to PSA for faster, more personalized service. There's also Beckett, a close 3rd in popularity [URL]https://www.beckett.com/grading[/URL] although their expertise is more focussed on modern memorabilia. We haven't done business with any of those outfits, so we can't vouch for or advise against any of them beyond relaying what we do know is the buzz in the hobby, but we have to say we've read a lot of complaints about Dean's, so, y'know, [I]caveat emptor[/I]. The Net54 crowd are not shy about giving plenty of well-informed opinions on any of the companies mentioned here, so that should be your starting point.[/QUOTE]
