Probstien has another Silho listed. I'm considering making a run at it. There's a BGS 8 up at $2888 OBO. Curious as to where you guys think this falls. Kinda wondering to myself if i should just offer on the 8.

I agree. It really is.

Sorry if this has been discussed at length before, but looking at 2013 Rookie Autos, is there a general consensus on which is more preferred/desired of the two:

1) On-card "GA" Initials, or
2) Sticker "Full Name" Auto

I think On Card is always going to win out.

Personally, I only collect Brett Favre and the only way I will buy a sticker auto is if the card is his jersey number or it's graded a gem and anything that may be a steal to use as trade for other Favre on-card. TO ANSWER THE ORIGINAL question - the full name auto's will never exist again whether it be on-card, on a sticker or sweet spot style where a piece is added. Giannis will never sign in full, the GA and other forms of it is where it's at, only for Giannis and only because it's the full name

I couldn’t agree more here! His full auto will never be done again…no reason for him to. Any full autos moving forward will hold a premium. I have some, and won’t let them go. Even his International NT has GA on it and I won’t let that go either…nice big on card sig that just looks beautiful!

This is why I'm a huge fan of the Next Day autos....

One of his few that are both on card and full wage. (Gold Standard too)

[whiteboybill]

Even though they aren’t the full sig, these are two of my favorite Giannis RC autos.

Love Next Day Autos in general as well.

As is most of his fans. The Next Day are awesome, but way out of almost everyone's price range. To me, it's the ideal card, very early, full sig, looks sick now. Why didn't I fall in lose with that auto 6 years ago? haha

What are Giannis' full sig on-card RPAs?

-Gold Standard
-Timeless Treasures (kind of a cut auto, but definitely not a sticker)

Is that it?

Quite a few are full sigs actually, Prizm, Select, Certified, Intrigue, Crusade, Rising Tide, Prestige, Rated Rookie, Spectra, off the top of my head, i'm sure there's more. Seems like just the super high ends were GA's (Immac/NT/Flawless)

None of those are full sig on-card RPAs.

Neither is the next day Auto. I think he was just talking about full sig autos, not an RPA unless I'm mistaken.

Bingo was his name-o.

My bad missed the RPA part, there are variation RPA's in a lot of those products, but i guess they wouldn't be considered a True RPA like NT/Immac.

IMO...

On Card Full-Auto
On Card Initial Auto

(Grand Canyon sized gap, as I personally very rarely will buy anything not on card)

Sticker Full Auto (Though I do appreciate what was posted above about him more than likely never using this signature again, and potentially making it an exception to the standard 'sticker' rule).
Sticker Initial Auto
