I wish it was on-card autos though!
I think I will crack it out of the slab...to me the slab actually takes away from the card on non-vintage and non-rookie cards in most cases.

on-card wouldn't matter as much if they hadn't put that awful Griffey sticker on there... ::facepalm::

skrip

I agree, card would present much better in something other than that slab.

Agreed, but the price seemed right...hoping to flip Christmas time (and if i can't make a benny on it, then I will be forced to keep it for awhile...I don't like any stickers in my PC.

Even if they had used the same 3 kinds of stickers and all 3 in blue ink, I'd have been happy with that. Cant deny what a sweet card it is though.

There, that looks a little better!

Slab simply provides the best protection.

Is that seriously a $500 card?

Not to me it isn't, but I am hoping it is to others...especially come Christmas time.

this sold for $755

Nice, a Fine 9 (all 9 subs)!

Edit - Why the hell would you crack a Mint card if you aren't re-subbing for a bump. Fishing for buyers who think they could get a Gem?

you may not want to base your "sale prices" from the seller apmcards...everyone of his cards sell for way beyond the normal amount

If you want to flip, why would you ever crack slab? A 9 for Exquisite is like a chrome 9.5.

1. i didn't crack it..yet...that's called cropping.
2. like i said in previous message, to me only vintage,dna, and rookies belong in slabs. (maybe a few exceptions)
3. to your question, NO. I would guess a very small minority grade modern non-rookie autos...what percentage of your modern autos do you have graded?

Well, if you think so, maybe I won't. You probably have more experience at that, than me. To me, it just doesn't look as presentable...The only thing I have graded are vintage and rookies...i don't like my modern non-rookies graded...but if you really think it will sell for more in a slab, then maybe i won't crack it...I will think about it.

I agree, but this is ultimate, not exquisite

It's your card, so you can certainly do what you want with it. I wouldn't crack it personally. It's Mint.

the next thing to do is remove those bastard stickers and have the card signed properly

now THAT would be a $500 card!

But, it would be an altered IP auto, worth more to a few and less to many.
