Default Mile High Results

Which would you rather own: (1) a PSA 9 Cracker Jack Walter Johnson PLUS a PSA 8 o/c Cracker Jack Joe Jackson, or (2) a PSA 10 1970 Topps Reggie Jackson? According to the results of Mile High's auction, it's Reggie by a nose. Why? Why? Why?

The PSA 10 Rickey RC went for a mere 30K. Good buy.

I think you are joking , but didnt the prior psa 10 go for 20k or so..so a 5k potential profit in a year is serous stuff ? i not check the numbers so can be wrong

Maybe, but let's not pretend this has anything to do with a card. A flip is a commodity that happens to be attached to a card. A 10 grade is a meaningless category created to artificially generate value. So sure, in purely investment terms, flips have value. But they have very little to do with cards, as outside of that holder you couldn't pick that card out of a lineup of 9s.

One of my issues with these late night closing auctions is the proverbial one drink too many on a slow Friday (or Thursday) night. Feeling good . . . had a nice dinner . . . night is coming to a close . . and now there's something really fun going on. The carnival just showed up in town . . . Pour one more beer and settle in in front of the computer . . . .

Can you spell buyer's remorse . . .
