The sports card market is absolutely booming right now. I sold off enough of my other stuff to buy this. There are only 10 of them. It is indescribably beautiful.

No intent to sell besides possibly the Downtown posted above.
I'd hold off getting anything graded by SGC. PSA recently bought out SGC so who knows what happens there. If PSA gets rid of the SGC brand completely I'm not sure how well future value holds up on SGC slabs.
If you want an alternate to PSA grading probably CGC, which used to be CSG is the way to go IMO. CGC just recently acquired JSA as well so they are expanding in the market. And with CGC partnering with Topps and Fanatics I can't help but think they are making a real run at market share. Who knows what the grading landscape will be in a decade. [Reply]

He offered me 95$, so I think I'm going to take it but I wanted to make sure I wasn't buying junk.
It's a 1/3 and gem mint so it's very enticing. [Reply]

I barely keep up with the current market, not sure where the Leaf brand ranks these days
But the signature sells it IMO, I'd throw $95 at a well graded card... yeah its a gamble, but this kids potential in this offense makes it a safe bet [Reply]

You're good dude. I knew I was exposing it by posting it here. I just wanted to make sure you knew you were an asshole if you actually did lol. [Reply]
