Default A great Kevin Garnett card I found at the flea market today.

Looks pretty clean to me too. I will likely send off to PSA in the morning as they have only graded 4 copies with no 10's.

Great find! These came with a shiny film that you had to peel off, very condition sensitive. Let us know what it grades.

Did you slip the guy an extra $200 because he didn't know what he had? I've been told that's what you have to do if a seller makes a mistake.

You will have to keep track of the sellers locations. Might get lucky again.

I got the grade for the card today and it came back a 7. I'm a bit disappointed and think it is undergraded, but I won't complain too much since I got the card so cheap.

Such a shame. I'd almost BGS that if the surface is clean.

2 of 91 cards graded by BGS across the entire set graded a 7. 72/91 graded BGS 8.5 or higher.
