Rarely seen monster hits auction...

[pootshwan]

Anyone else watching this card? Can't remember the last time I saw one at auction. This is probably going to break some records and set all time highs

Pop 24

The toughest modern RC PSA10 there is with only 24 of them out there.

It worries me that it has been through Heritage Auctions twice and it's a recent reslab though.

 

[Mozzie22]

i guess edge damage will still get you a PSA 10 these days.

 

[finestkind]

And because it's a PWCC auction.

Doesn't look like a 10. Chipping on bottom of card, Fish eye under C in Ricky under blue border, White snow effect dots in A's banner, Off center back. Solid 9. Who ever got this graded you know PSA called them and said hey we'll give you a 10 if you pay up. Either that or there in the PSA club if you know what I mean.

 

[Dilferules]

It's over a hundred grand...using math, if a PSA 10 is worth $100,000 then my PSA 7 is worth $70,000!

haha

I was not aware of that. Interesting piece of information, I'm not sure what to make of it. Could thye have been trying to "set the market" and then go ahead with a real sale on ebay?

The market for a legit PSA10 is what is is. There are less than 25 of them. My concern is the amount of trimming associated with Heritage Auctions and cards that have passed through there.

Math checks out.

Preferential grading. I believe it.

there are 2 BGS 9.5 on eBay that look way better. This card. And this card. And you wont have to pay over 200 grand.

The difference in selling price between BGS 9.5's and PSA 10's amaze me.

 

[pootshwan]

$180,000+ what the heck?


Thoughts?

My first thought is that is more than I spent on my house.

Here is a little grading guide I made. On the left you see your score if you don't have buddies at the company, and on the right is a "less than gem" getting a 10 due to ulterior reasons.

This is so true and the gap continues to widen. Strange because it was the other way around for a few years but now it's completely swung back around.

The one on the right IS the one who actually graded it!

Ah, so that's what Hilary Swank has been up to lately.

Yeah the price difference is insane. I'm watching one of the 9.5 Hendersons and the seller just sent an offer of 36,000 to every watcher. That seems like a steal to me. Who ever bought the PSA 10 Henderson got ripped off.
