Default What would you rather have?

Posted By: Jeff J

For me its about the best condition card that was produced.

If I buy them in bulk and have them slabbed, I'd rather have a 9 (oc).

If I pay X for a 7 or 8 and only care about re-sale value I'd get the 7 or 8 then.

However the re-sale value should not be effected by the 9(oc). The same way (in reverse)that a players rookie card should not automatically be worth more than his second or third year unless there were production rarity involved. There was a time in the mid to late 70's that being a rookie card meant NOTHING more in value.

It's a shame it has gotten this way as I bet there are way more 9 OC's than you think out there that do NOT even get graded.
