Lebron BGS 9.5 Contemporary Rookie Out for some looks

[tylermckinzie]

Topps Contemporary Lebron James Rookie, BGS 9.5 Gem Mint! Anyone who has seen these cards knows how the surfaces usually have refractor lines, or the edges aren't in the best shape.... this one is gem! The person who traded it to me said there were only 5 graded BGS 9.5 when he picked it up, but I have no way to verify since I am not a member of Beckett (anyone who could check to see if that number is higher would be awesome!).

There are only six closed auctions on regular ungraded Lebron rookies from this set, they aren't easy to come by, let alone with this grade. The $300 bv was close to what I traded for it at (gave a little more with multiple cards), but have passed on an offer of $150 cash. Would also think about a trade for a Kobe or Lebron auto on this one, can also add some $ towards an MJ. Gonna take something nice for this one.

Thanks!
Tyler

man..that is a nice card Tyler..you should have taken the 150.00 for it...

I have a permanent offer for $125 if I ever want it, so I would rather shop around and see if I can't get something I want and risk losing a whole $25 than move it the same day and regret it :-) It's a hobby for me!

Thanks,
