Michael Jordan BGS 10 Rookie Hits $75,000!

[mikesilvia]

I always knew Michael Jordan was recession proof! :)



This 1986-87 Fleer Michael Jordan rookie is now over $75,000 with 69 bids. The auction still has over six days to run! According to the seller:

This Michael Jordan 1986-87 Fleer #57 card is Graded Beckett 10 Pristine. This is the First BGS Pristine 10 of Michael Jordan's famous Fleer Rookie card.

The question I would ask if I were the buyer is how many PSA 10 cards are there?

You can win 500 Card Cash by guessing the final ending price here.

I find it funny that this card is over $75K and yet he still is charging a shipping fee

I thought the same thing. Why not just make it free shipping? haha

How much do PSA 10 86F Jordans sell for?

And what is the sales record for a post-1980 card?

Actually I find it odd that he wouldn't have it set up a some sort of face to face transaction. I'd also think you'd want to have a bank help in transferring the funds or something. Anyone buying a card for $75k should be bale to fly out to pick the card up or vice versa... anyone selling a card for that much probably would be willing to deliver it.

I agree 100% because I doubt you will want to insure that card and go through the stress of waiting for it. You would have to do it registered mail as well and that would slow the delivery!

there was one of these last summer on ebay with a buy it now of $150,000...and somebody bought it with like 3 or 4 days remaining....i think that one was a PSA 10 though

Whatever this one sells for, it's going to sell for alot. This card is like the Holy Grail of all basketball cards in the modern era. I don't think I've even seen a BGS 10 Jordan RC listed on Ebay until now.

An insanely high price, but it's probably the best basketball card in the world. I read that there are only 2 BGS-10 Jordan RCs in existence, making it all the more rare!

According to Beckett.com's listing on the card, the card has been graded a pristine BGS 10 just once! Here are the other statistics:

9.5:...........94
9:..............395
8.5:............733
8:...............927
7.5:............589

That is a truly amazing card. The most important basketball card ever, and the one card graded a pristine 10. Wow!
