I feel what we are seeing right now is that bidding is getting more aggressive since it's no doubt that card is projected to be the next million dollar card in many peoples eyes. Everyone who REALLY wants one is making sure to put in their highest bids before we actually see that number. I am thinking that we may even see it hit 1,000,000 quicker than what it took to get to the first 500K when it truly took off and never looked back (meaning under a year at this rate).

Did I say you said it would hit a million in my thread? No - I said people in the thread made that statement and above is the post. You keep crying again in this thread and still wrong - you almost had me didn’t you ![]() That PSA 8 prediction at $48k is going the wrong direction, but don’t worry pumpers. It Just means if you are patient you can get it near the floor our buddy said it was going to at around $10k. Last 4-5 sales have seen the 8’s drop from $28-31k to under $20k - trend line is down to $15k range. Might be in the $10-12k range in a week or two so some bargains will possibly be out there. ![]() Last edited by Slvnumber2; 02-14-2021 at 11:52 PM. |

You are aware that not every 8 is the same.... correct? Some are quite OC and those will sell for less. Let's see where a couple nice ones end before we start to decide that PSA 8s are trash. |

you conveniently left out the three OTHER sales on 2/14/2021 $ 18,100 $ 17,701 $ 19,600 of course, that wouldn't have fit your "trend line 15k range" NARRATIVE as far as your 10k to 12k range in a week or two, ive come to 2 conclusions: #1) your actually an "anti-pumper" hoping to knock the card down and panic people , so you, yourself have buying opportunities #2) you're just a jacka$$ ![]() |

lets all put this guy aside and move on, he is like a 4 year old, the more attention you give him the more he thrives... just ignore and we can all continue to have logical conversations.....with out fake or inaccurate assumptions where we have to debunk everything...

Soooo. . . . how about the aesthetics of the #57 on its own merits? Great photo, but a couple things:
1) Fleer skimped on the color dyes. Even the "boldest color" 57s aren't true red like on the Star issues. I want the deep red colors I associate with my memory of the '93 Finals (e.g. the photo on his '93 Ultra #30 - https://www.google.com/search?q=jordan+1993+ultra+30 ![]() 2) Lots of variations that don't seem to affect prices as long as they're in the right grading company holder. ![]() Anyway, I don't get how anyone could lay down #500K for a PSA 10 where the "red" in the border looks orange compared to the red in the grading flip, unless they were price-speculating. I couldn't stand to look at it, as a collector. (Other unacceptably orange issues: 88F #17, and the 88 Starting Lineup which is otherwise a great photo. Also the 89 Hoops looks nice photo and color-wise, but . . . "junk era".) |

Amazing how friendly this group is if you join the echo chamber and pump all things Jordan. If you actually read my posts do I knock him? No - I say as a fan and collector he is GOAT and rightly so. His cards should be worth more than anyone’s, and I agree that his rookie should be about a $500k card. I don’t agree that it should go from $37k a year ago to $150k/$220k and then $700k+ in less than 14 months. Anything that rises that quickly has some help and not in a good way, and if you don’t like me pointing it out tough. It is happening on the baseball side right now with the 1980 Henderson rookie with shill bidding, retracted bids, and people trying to cash in on the card. The market overall is on fire right now and some Mantle cards last night went for 2x their last sale and that never happens with Mantle cards. That will make me quite a bit of money since most of my cards are Mantle’s, but I also think that it won’t be a good thing for the hobby. Cards going up is a bad thing? Not at all. Cards going up due to fake sales, shill bidding, and manipulation is bad for the hobby - does nit matter if it is Jordan or Mantle. Have a nice evening gents and carry on. |

the issue I have with your posts, is you often play "loose and fast" with the facts. example #1) you kept saying people were "pumping this card up to 1 million" thereby hurting newbies who get in at the top, before a drop. the post you use to "prove" your point was by foo3112. what did he actually say ??? (paraphrasing) "bidding is getting aggressive b/c its projected to be the next million dollar card in many peoples eyes" "we may even see 1 million quicker than what people might even think IN UNDER ONE YEAR" how on God's earth is this "pumping" and leading naïve buyers to "overpay" ?? example #2) you are constantly banging the drum that psa 10's have DROPPED 20%. run, panic...they're falling off a cliff. when, um , you yourself stated two buyers may have "overpaid" at $732. for jordans that weren't even the "finest copies" ?? isn't it also true, stated differently, mj rookies are up over 200% !!! 200k-600k in a 45 day span ??? its the old adage: one see the glass as half full, one sees it as half empty, and both are right. and, fyi, my modest collection of mantles saw the HUGE continued bump in pwcc auction ended feb. 14th (valentines day, lol). im ecstatic. I prefer to believe that the cnn exposure/wall street money influx is here, and its changing the hobby in front of our very eyes. |
