Big Mac McGwire said:McGwire said his deal with Upper Deck to produce his first mainstream autographed cards for the years 02 and 03 was "A 1 time Deal". He knew the hobby wanted certified auto's of his. The auto's are now 7 and 6 years years old. The supply for the rare ones are all dried up. The ones with print runs of 350 and less are more abundant. Out of all the stars that are alive, not counting the deceased players mcgwires auto along with Koufax and Ichiro go for the most. A regular mac auto goes for 150 and up. Thats pretty high for the oversaturated autograph card market. If you think 150 is high, join me when the high end auto's surface and your forking out 4 to 5 and up. It gets ruff.
Proud to say I haven't hit the 5 mark yet. Only hit the 4+ mark 5 times on autos:
$400 - #'d/4
$425 - #'d/5
$425 - both graded 9 or 9.5 w/ 10 on the auto (hence the crappy scans - stupid holders) #'d/25
$460 - #'d/15
