Agreed, as I said, selling the allocation is not a good idea. Though I do suspect there could be some amount of "hey card collecting friend, I got an allocation but don't have any economy-level cards right now, you got anything you want to send in?" going on.

Do you have an active Collectors Club membership? Were you logged onto your account in the queue?

Same thing for me. And yes, I'm a platinum cc member. I've gotten past allocations and all of them have been submitted.

Yes, I had qualified 3 previous times, and orders are sitting at PSA. Today, I get this message.

"Any active PSA Collectors Club member is eligible to seek allocations. From time-to-time, we may run allocation events based on other customer criteria that could limit which customers can participate in specific events."

maybe this was only open to people that haven't won yet, or at least haven't won 3 times out of 4

Where do you go to see allocations (if any) in one's account? Thanks.

Start a submission and you’ll see it, if you were given an allocation

Well then, Mr. Gatekeeper of Cardboard, enlighten us peasants as to what these cardz are all about then.


I ordered a case of extra large, extra tight screwdowns so that I’m as ready as possible

Finally landed an allocation yesterday. 1 for 5. I had one explorer tab and one google chrome open. The explorer one worked for me, even though I entered the room earlier on the google chrome browser. I closed that one out once I saw my lower number on explorer.

Two questions:

1. Does PSA still want us to write "Economy" on the outside of the shipping box? I don't see that instruction on their website anymore.

2. I've searched for a card that I will be submitting, but it's not coming up in the search field. It's a 2019 Topps Archives Signature Series (it looks like the 2000 Finest card) Chipper Jones Auto 1/1. Do I just enter that description in the field?

I don’t believe that’s been a requirement for at least a year now (my last submission was February of last year and I didn’t have to).

There’s a bar code in your form printout that you stick on the outside box.

For the Chipper, can you find another players card from same set and just replace the name and card number?

Appreciate it! Great idea and I searched by the same set, but the actual Chipper card is still not showing up. I'll just save the description I entered and make a comments on the notes portion. Thanks!

Quick questions that hopefully knows the answer. In these 5 card allotments at $50/per, am I allowed to send in 3 Bowman cards with 2 Pokemon cards in the same submission?
