It's awesome to see how well these cards appreciated in value. Dug out my collection a few days ago. Sitting on 50 base 5 silver 2 black and a handful of minis. I guess I'll send that couple to HGA while waiting on BGS to allow submissions again. 
Those are good cards to have.. Hotbox silver especially. i would wait for PSA if you are sure they will grade well. Maybe send in through a card shop for best rate.
Yeah I've got a guy I send to that submits them. He's got some setup with different color lights and cleans them up and videos me about what he thinks it'll grade. I've only got 9.5s back from him and the others he rejects just cost $3 for inspection. I do think HGA will stick around tho. I like them at least with the color match. Happy collecting!
Also there's a black mini x for auction on eBay with no reserve that started at .99 cents. This should be fun to watch.

Wow a /100 mini x. Auctions high risk with recent cool down. PSA 10 mini card sold for 240. The word hasn't gotten out on the rarities so folks only want base card. Id be surprised if it goes over 600. Easily a 2500 card.
I plan on bidding up to 500. Dont need it but ya know, I want it
When did the PSA 10 sell for 240? I'm Nah-256 the one who did the original valuations on OP. Have no fear everyone, the alt acct was to recover this account when everything was breached and is well known to mods who helped me regain access to this acct. there is a lot of white on that card's edges. at 700+ now. and it looks like a PSA 6 to me. I can't zoom in, but tons of white.
Fair warning that seller is terrible at communication and shipping. I've bought a coue cards from them in the past and it's terrible. Snagged a great deal so I put up with it, but every week I emailed them asking to ship and they said they were going to it wasn't until I messaged them everyday after a month of non shipment. Obviously a high volume consigner but their business acumen sucks
