Mid-300 for a plentiful, garden variety card from the junk wax era is still hard for me to comprehend.
About three years ago I did a Criagslist buy of about 300 wax boxes at around a buck apiece, and somewhere around 30 of those were basketball.. Fleer, Hoops, UD, Skybox. 1990 and 1991 issues. I busted them all and so I have a ton of Jordan cards that went from pack into sleeve.
Maybe its time to do a bulk PSA submission. I could sure use the money to fill in other holes in my collection.
