The other thing I won't do (and I am a broken record on this but here goes) is rely on condition rarity for long term value. The odds of PSA finding more 10s and 9s of modern mainstream cards among the millions submitted every year are a lot better than the odds of suddenly finding more of the items like those I've scanned. I know, because I am chasing the damned things. That makes modern cards an inherently riskier bet. I actually like the prospects of the Star true RCs better than most modern precisely because the print runs were a tiny fraction of the mainstream cards. I know, demand factors into it, but that would indicate lack of undervaluation.
The above notwithstanding certain marquee cards that are readily available but that have lives of their own as cornerstones of a collection: 1986 Fleer Jordan, 1979 Topps Magic-Bird, 1969 Topps Alcindor, 1961 Fleer Chamberlain, 1957 Topps Russell, 1948 Bowman Mikan. There's probably a LeBron that qualifies but I don't know enough about that era's issues to state which it is.
