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.

Holy moly. What a find!

What'd you pay?!

It was in a lot with 19 other low end cards for $30. I didn't look it up and am primarily a baseball/football buyer and thought it would be maybe $100-$200. I didn't realize it could be potentially $1000+ card until I got time to look it up later.

A flea market?

*firm handshake with style and strength*

MFaulkCollector · 08-03-2023, 04:50 PM

I'd pee all over the place if I saw that for a few bucks.......... Garnett is my favorite 90's BBall guy..... congrats

Incredible. Congratulations and kudos to you for spotting it too.

Well done

kingofsnake · 08-03-2023, 10:53 PM

Wow $30 - you robbed that fool.

Wow well done OP

Raise the roof -- ah, yes, the 90s.

mjordandagoat · 08-05-2023, 06:01 PM

Nothing like a garage/flea market find of a grail piece like that, beautiful card!

messier2 · 08-05-2023, 08:37 PM

And this is why you go to flea markets and thrift stores!

Mattsurewood · 08-06-2023, 04:57 AM

Great find, congrats!!

Arianny_Fan · 08-06-2023, 04:09 PM

Anything is possibllllllle!

dengbang · 08-06-2023, 05:30 PM

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

thenightman · 08-06-2023, 08:16 PM

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.

MOONBASE1 · 08-08-2023, 03:37 AM

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

maconithappen · 08-08-2023, 08:23 AM

WOW! This is one of his grails as well. Congratulations!!

ragingbull · 08-09-2023, 03:04 PM

oh wow!

justrun7 · 08-21-2023, 05:35 PM

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.
