I'll PM K C Royals and David K. shortly after posting this but I have to give the results of my trip over to Beckett today. Thankfully they are only about 20 minutes away. I found out that they can grade them within an hour so I decided to go ahead and do it, if nothing else, just to protect the card for the future. This will go onto Ebay this Thursday night for 10 days.
Here is the result which is fine with me. They found a soft corner on the top, right back of the card. I'm pleased that it is mint and not lower. Hopeing for a Gem-Mint if I ever pull something half this good again.

Nice pull! Prospectors would, and probably will, go crazy for that card. Grading it was probably the best thing to do in that situation due to Bubba's popularity in the prospector world. Good luck! Glad to see you got a good grade on it.

Nice hit, Al - a Jed Bradley auto! Us Brewers fans have high hopes for him.

Oh wait - I see now - you also got a Bubba Starling canary auto. Well, that's pretty good too...

LOL!
Now, from this card I hope to get some extra cash to spend at Rangers FanFest in a couple weeks. Maybe Prince Fielder will be there if he has nothing else to do.

Oh, I thought Prince was waiting until the Brewers FanFest at the end of January to show up in person and make a big announcement. If not, Rangers would be my 2nd choice. Have fun at the Rangers Fest - say hi to Neftali and Elvis and Boomstick for me!
 
Thanks!
The bidders look to be respectable high dollar card buyers which makes me feel even better.
I also pulled his base auto in the same box and this week Topps sent me his Bowman Chrome redemption Auto that I pulled out of my 5 boxes of Draft. So, I still have some investment in him and hope he does well.
I don't believe that I've ever pulled 3 Autos of the same player in any 1 year. Nice that it's a good one.
 
Sorry the Starling didn't go for much more than it sold for. I was really hoping you would've gotten $2.5K+
 
He paid quickly, which I'm thankful for. And, I hope when he sells it that he gets $2,000. That means that my other cards will have some profit then too.
