which durant auto is better need help

[rum151man]

i have a chance to trade the 06-07 redemtion ud chronology auto /50 for a graded 9.5 with 10 auto spx super scripts
but not sure which will be better in the longrun?

for me its the spx and its not even remotely close...but thats just me because i hate stuff signed on letter like that because you can barely see the autograph and it just doesnt look good to be honest

SPX, hands down. I'd take a full on card auto any day over an auto that was squeezed onto a letter, especially since there's speculation that they'll bleed out in the future.

EDIT - I realize the auto is on a sticker, I meant the auto with space to be the full auto with the layout of the card, rather than compacted material.

I'll take the super script.

I agree it is nicer to have a full signature and not have it crammed on the letter......but I think I'll be in the minority and say I'd still rather have the chronology card. I like that it's #'d 50 and it is a more unique card.........I'd take that over a generic looking unnumbered insert set sticker auto. I'll also say I'm not a huge graded card collector - so to me that doesn't mean a whole lot.....and if anything it's a negative that it takes a 9.5 grade to simply match the value of the ungraded Chronology card and judging by completed auctions it looks like there are quite a few graded at that level.

I liked the Chronology better for the same reasons stated above. It's a much rarer card and that SPx is the least interesting rookie auto of Durant in my view. I see that one up for sale all the time, and it should grade well.

SPx.

I have a hard time looking at any signed letter card and not thinking it's incomplete without the rest of the cards to spell the entire name.

i could care less about the grade to, but for me if im going to buy an autographed card than i want a card with his actual autograph, not a scribble with a silver pen because theres no way to sign a signature

Like I said I agree with that.....just not a fan of the super scripts....so that being the case. I create option C. Sell the Chronology - and pick up a Hot Prospects or Ultimate RC auto. Those are "true rc's" that you can get around the same price or $20 more. Or if you really want the SPX - just buy it ungraded.....good chance you may get a 9 or 9.5 anyway and then you'd still have money to buy another lower-end auto like SP RE.
