    Nervous / Scared / Excited

    So the other day I busted my first hockey ever. It was a blaster of UD Series 2. In the last pack was a Seguin YG. Needless to say I was ecstatic. Today I added to my week of firsts by sending that card into BGS to get graded. I really hope I made the right choice. I am hoping for a 9.5. I would be thrilled to own a Seguin YG graded 9.5. And I am trying to prepare myself to not be disappointed if it comes back a 9. What have I done to myself? Have any of you send cards away to be graded? What was it like for you?

    Thanks! I have been watching the Bruins throughout the playoffs and saw Seguin's debut and really wanted some of his cards but they are a tad high for me right now so to pull a YG was amazing. I've inspected the card thoroughly and it looks to be pretty stinking perfect. I'm hoping BGS thinks so too haha. And honestly, I never even thought of popping it out of the case lol, thanks for that idea!

    I just noticed you collect him, so either way the grade is not that big of a deal, it would be if you were planning on flipping it where you would hope and pray for that high 9.5 grade. nonetheless keep us updated!

    Yeah, I know I shouldn't be too concerned about the grade since I'm keeping it no matter what, I guess I just want that gem mint grade so the card will be a real nice piece to my collection. Either way, it was an awesome pull and I'm happy. :)

    Haha! I always heard the BGS grades easy so that people will be happy and send more in. Let's hope that's true!
