Good afternoon, everybody! Are we ready to look at some more basketball cards today? How about the 61' Fleers? For those of you who aren't aware, the 61' Fleer set is regarded as the greatest vintage basketball set of all-time. It is loaded with stars, and most importantly, it has the rookies of Wilt Chamberlain, Jerry West and Oscar Robertson. Let's begin!
1961 Fleer Oscar Robertson:
PSA 7 - August price peaked at $16,000 USD.
Now going for under $8,000 USD.
1961 Fleer Wilt Chamberlain:
PSA 7 - August price peaked at $24,999 USD.
Last one sold for $15,300 USD.
1961 Fleer Jerry West:
PSA 7 - August price peaked at $12,600 USD.
Last one sold for $8,500 USD.
I also want to point out that MOST of these cards were sold privately (Paypal direct). In other words, during the month of August, somebody could have sold TWO PSA 7 Oscar Robertson rookies for around $40,000 USD. And of course, money sent this way is sometimes done using the Family & Friends method. And you know what that means, right? NO RETURNS!
Bert shouldn't have listened too much to Gary Vee!
