Kevin Garnett Rookie Year PSA Graded chase

[skip20]

As the Portugese woudl say 'boa nota'!

 

[GarnettFan4Life]

These two are off to PSA end of this month to be crossed over

History says these are likely to come back as an 8 and a 5 but I’d rather a 9 and a 7 please

along with a few others

Under-rated parallel - electric court gold from the 90s.

Under rated and over priced imo atm hence I settled for a lower grade for now

I was going to say they are rather pricey!

What were the pack odds for electric gold? 1 per box?

Wonder what the actually print run for these are. 90s upper deck was so mass produced a print run of 2500 would still be very rare.

Yes - one per box but the set was 360 cards so the odds end up being huge for finding that one player you're after.

I looked at the PSA pop report and there's 47 Garnett graded and Jordan has a few different cards in the set - some are 40 or 60 graded total and one is 100.
Shaq has one that is a pop 4. So overall - seems like extremely rare as people would have graded them by now during the covid boom grading era when we had that backlog.

Exact pack odds were 1:35 for series one and 1:27 for series two FWIW.

pretty good overall
Private Issue was the most disappointing/cost reductive lol - I payed pretty good price for a CGC 9

...the real question is, whose grading do you trust more?

Cardboard Connection did a PSA to BGS crossover and there were noticeable upgrades across the board.

I guess it's all superfluous if it's all PC. I really do need to try harder to keep up with the whole BGS9.5 vs PSA9 and all of those shenanigans in terms of price points... Does the basic rule of thumb still apply, a 10 is basically double the price of a 9?

I think nearly all companies are inconsistent at the moment still. I’d trust the one who uses the least human subjective method. I still haven’t got a TAG graded card in hand yet - they may be at the forefront of the tech.

For the most part I’ve had downgrades or staying the same when going from PSA to BGS as they have been really harsh last couple years.

I’d expect CSG, CGC and other companies to be over grading still.

The PSA 10 is still 2-4 times a PSA but depends on the population- if there’s 100 9’s and 2 10’a you can obviously expect a massive premium.
