What Would You Rather Have?
|
Jackson
Cobb Malone |
I am not part of the PSA registry, so . . .
I would take the Jackson, and keep $3k in my pocket. P.S. How did that card get a 10 with that centering?? |
Cobb of course for me
|
None of the above.
|
The G-J Joe Jax because I like scarce ad-back cards.

Ty Cobb for me. Joe was great until he took the bribe.

Somewhere along the way, the flip became the commodity.
|
Is that a trick question?

For $26,395 dollars or so less, I would be willing to settle for this example,
Attachment 615885 especially because this is not Moses, but Jeff. I would be willing to spend $25,000+ more for a comparable condition 1986 Fleer Moses Malone, like the one shown below. Attachment 615888 Brian (I just disabled my Net54 PM) |
You can get '86 fleer psa 8s and 9s that look like 10s for $25,000+ less. I would have to be severely concussed to pick Malone.

Cobb. I love that pic of him.
BTW - at least one of those Cobb post cards has an advertisement back and is a 1912 - see post mark in the attached (Nov. 25, 1912, 9am) |
Jackson
Cobb …. a million other cards Malone |

Cobb for me |
Cobb for sure. And not even biased as a friend bought it :) and he is very happy to have won it!

Cobb
Jackson Malone. I will also say that if the Malone was Karl in a PSA 10 I'd have to seriously think about moving that higher in these rankings. For those who don't follow modern cards, the 86-7 Fleer Karl Malone is a true rookie cards from a very important main stream set. Rich |

The VCP average for a PSA 9 Jeff Malone is $181.09. That 10 flip is worth 146x more than a 9 flip. Oh and by the way, you can almost buy two PSA 9 Jordans for that price. |
Jackson
Cobb Malone, wouldn't pay $1 for |

Jackson, Cobb.

If I'm not paying, I would take the Jackson.

As to the question. Silly question :). 99.9% of this forum wouldn't take the new card. . |
Jackson
then Cobb That's all... Bill |
It all depends on what you collect. In this forum most would take the Jackson or the Cobb. On a PSA basketball forum most might take the '86 Malone. I don't really collect Cobb, Jackson ad backs, especially with scarlet letters, or men's basketball so I'll take a 4th choice--the cash.

Jackson
Cobb That order, that's it. |
Cobb.

Not everyone buys cards due to their love of the cards -- some buy for investment purposes only. I own Philip Morris stock, now known as Altria, after a name change. I don't smoke but I am all for solid investments, and the stock has done really well for me. The buyer of a Jeff Malone PSA 10 card may very well be in the same boat as I am with Altria. It's somewhat pukeworthy to me as I collect for love of the cards only, but maybe he's just buying what he sees as a potentially good investment? And he feels in his investment horizon the Malone will do better than the other two cards.
For the most part, that's the only way any sane person could rationalize spending that kind of money on the Malone card ahead of the Cobb or Jackson above. Unless he's a Registry guy and then it's sad, because who the hell wants to spend that much money on a common for their registry? Edited to add: I already own two of those Cobbs, so I'd take the Jackson first. Possibly. |
Sad that they’re not even buying a card… they are buying some random guy’s opinion on a given day.

I'd take the Cobb. I've always been a fan of that card although I've never owned one.
|
Between those three I'll just keep the $26k.
