It took me a while to figure this one out (I think). I came across this string of vintage graded PSA 10s several weeks ago and couldn't pin down who submitted them. I have typically seen the usual masked VCP ID of b***y when I find the before purchases, but it wasn't the case this time. The submission numbers in the cards that I am about to post begin with 27755431 and end with 27751452 and total 21 cards. There are three different initial VCP purchase IDs involved that include an unknown Ebay ID with the masked Ebay ID of 9***9 and VCP masked ID of
e***c, and an unknown Ebay ID with a masked Ebay ID of p***e and a matched VCP masked ID of
p***e and a VCP masked ID of
t***9 . While I cannot confirm a link between the three, they do seem to be from the same submission and all of the after sales were through PWCC with many being sold on the same date.
The majority of the posted card images have poor first sale scans or only a front scan that I could not 100% confirm a match. I posted the first scans that I am confident are a match.
In a sequentially numbered stretch of 21 PSA certs, there are 13 vintage PSA 10s - most trimmed and the others with no prior sale found. In that 21 card range there were 10 consecutive 10s given by PSA's experts. I believe the odds of that occurring with 50+ year old trimmed cards is astronomical without insider assistance from within PSA.
Any help in identifying these three masked VCP ID's would be greatly appreciated.
