It will all depend on whether you can afford a graded one or not.

Re: on which card, I wouldn't know because there's many Jordan auto's out there. You've just got to decide on which one you like best and again, money will be an issue for some.

i can afford 1.what a your opinions.

If its from a manufacturer release after I think 1998 (??) you should be fine with it being authentic. Is that all you are worried about ? Or just condition ?

Better question - why would you want a graded one ?

 

[Mr Kevin Garnett]

Graded ones will usually command a premium esp the gold labels. You can get BGS graded MJ autos 8/9's for about the same price as a raw one.

I would personally get a raw auto but if you are unsure of it's authenticity it's better to go with a graded one.

 

[granthill2006]

personally get a raw auto

why kg, and i don't care about authenticity. but rather which is better graded or ungraded in someone's opinion

 

[graham]

You would get a graded one if you want it to be guaranteed in a certain condition. The graded holders also are great for protecting the cards for future. Alternatively, get a raw one and a screw down or magnetic one touch case. Same deal

 

[Mr Kevin Garnett]

i don't care about authenticity.

Depends. I'd rather have a raw one than a BGS 7.5.

But like you said if money isnt a problem then definitely a graded one. Graded one's also have a better re-sale value (Mint/Gem-mint ones)

Also slabbed cards look better.

if i get it graded but hill, can i still possible to take card out in the future.

 

[Mr Kevin Garnett]

Bgs holders: Hard to take the card out.
Psa: Easy.

But why would you what to purchase a graded card and then take it out??

 

[granthill2006]

in the future take it out maybe, also kg will you rather have a jordan auto that is 8.5 or raw.

Taking it out would be a bad idea imo #-o

Go graded if money is no issue - 10 PRISTINE only

 

[granthill2006]

i can only afford a 8.5 probably or should i go raw

 

[Mr Kevin Garnett]

also kg will you rather have a jordan auto that is 8.5 or raw.

I'd take the 8.5

Why? because MOST raw cards will recieve a 8.5/9 grading anyway.
A 9.5 would be nice but it's unlikely.

 

[Hennessy]

Mate, are you buying the card for us or for yourself?

Spend whatever you can afford. Graded or Raw, they're all good, trust me!

i'm not too concerned about authenticity, but which is the better method to do.

 

[rayallen40]

anyone have any opinions, i also want a graded jordan.

 

[graham]

i'm not too concerned about authenticity, but which is the better method to do.

Ill send you one if you arent concerned about authenticity - $250

WTF ?? I mean, whats the point in getting a Jordan auto if its not real ????

This is a pretty stupid post all round, it really is a personal preference thing. Either you want it graded or you dont. Simple.

 

[justdabestcards]

i can only afford a 8.5 probably or should i go raw

I would go RAW

 

[granthill2006]

how come and how much will it cost to grade a card through beckett in oz dollars.
