Congratulations on the grade and rarity.  Highly sought after.   PSA didn't out "glow in the dark" on mine. How'd you pull that off

On the description line of the submission form, I simply wrote, "2018 Topps Allen & Ginter Bomb Cyclone Glow-in-the-Dark Mini."

ok. i need to complain to them then. i wrote same and they only put "mini" on the label.  That is a rare bird you have there.

I just love that card, it caught my attention right from the get go because of the brilliant colors. And to have a GLOWIE in that variety...WOW!!!
Such a nice snag.  I managed to get the 3-in-one Cyclone Bomb card, and because of the brightness of the card, I decided to get  RED mini of the players posted on that same cards to go with the single 3-in-one card. I like bright beautiful colors...and that red is fetching.   
Nice job Chris

It would be great to see some crypto cards in the green and red precious metals and yes some atomic refractors also.

The mini ginter x cards just keep breaking through new levels.  Congratulations to the buyers of these.  Just extrapolating the price to the more rare cards... If a 1/100 goes for 650, then a 1/50 is 1300.  a 1/25 is 2600, a 1/5 is 13000, a 1/1 is 65000

I certainly agree with you, however the regular blank back I still put that alone on the top of the hill.  Also, need to keep in mind what a PSA 10 does for the value, can give it a 15x premium depending on population and difficulty in getting a 10 for that specific card.

I wish it worked that way. Unfortunately, it doesn't.

We will have to wait and see when a red mini 1/5 or silver 1/1 comes up for sale

My theory holds for ginter x mini 1/100 ( recent sales in 600 range) and no numbers  150 (recent sales in 1200 range). I see no reason why a Brooklyn 1/25 would not go for 2400.

We will need to wait awhile to see if the theory holds true all the way through the 1/1 but, I believe the mini red #/5 will near the 15,000 range in the not to distant future.  In the non sportscard collection community spending 100's of thousands on rare cards goes on all the time.  Example the black lotus that I posted.  I for one will not be shocked to see a PSA 10 red mini go for 100,000.  Time will tell, but think I'm fairly close

I think I need to get busy and send my cards in to PSA for grading: can't get top dollar on eBay without that good PSA grade.

Yeah same here. What's the best way - the automated form, or the paper form?

Thanks!

Hands down it is the automated form.  It allows you to start a submission and save it for later.  It also has stored descriptions saving you time entering each name from scratch.

 Sadly ,That is also a clue that you don't have a pop 1 if it suggests card you are entering.

I do offer a PSA 9 trading service at 0.007 BTC per card for base cards (25), A&g backs (2), regular mini (5), and black border (3). Saves you 3 months' time and uncertainty.  Can do PSA 10 trade case by case.

I feel very fortunate that I have a friend that helps me in pre grading my cards before I send one in since I am looking for 10's, saves me time and funds.  Good luck I hope you get a bunch of 10's.
