But while we're at it, a cult? If he had so much of a cult following, then why weren't these cards selling for "$15,000"(the Reds that is), and 250K for the green, in 2007? Why all of a sudden did they become "HOT"? Shilling! That's how. So if you weigh a "cult following" with fake sales and hype, then I guess that's a cult. I still don't think all these people want these cards. lol if there are any 90's collectors even left! I'm the only surviving members of collectors from back then, and I knew many many people, from early days in school, to card shops and shows, adults and kids my age from back then, and I'm the only one left. So this crazy cult somewhere that you love referring to, for SPORTSCARDS........ There is no cult. It was fake sales, people pumping these cards and the prices, and passing them as the best thing since the wheel, and sliced bread. Then got Beckett involved to report the "record sales" in the magazines, and BAM........ Fake prices are now cataloged in the "price book" that's been bogus for years!!! It's a waste of chopping down trees.

So yeah, there is no secret cult of Jordan CARD collectors. Believe me. Fake hype, and fake prices. Nothing more. Oh sorry... actually there is more. FAKE counterfeit cards now! Smh

Wait, so are you saying Jordan does not have a huge collector base? I'm a bit confused as to what you're saying here.

It's almost as if you're acting like Jordan is Jerry Stackhouse or something. To say he hasn't and continues to be one of the top sought after person in the collecting world is ridiculous. That's like saying Mickey Mantle has no cult following and his prices have nothing to do with him being one of the most popular players in baseball history.


Additionally, I'm not sure how short your memory was/is...but the Jordan PMG was listed as one of the top 5 Jordan cards in existence every month in the pages of Beckett even back in the late 90's. Along with his 97-98 UD AS Jersey auto. The green pmg jordan never sold for under 2k if it surfaced back then, unless the person who owned it was absolutely clueless as to what they had. And yes, back then I was a HUGE sucker for his UD Sign of the Times gold autos and Inkredible autos (both of which had BECKETT BOOK VALUES of $2.5k+ out the gate). Which is the reason why I was never able to own one back then lol.
