87-88 basketball box

[jasoneggert]

I have a full box of 1987-88 fleer basketball (second year)

Just wondering if you think it is a good idea to sell it on ebay, or some other place? I have found a dealer online who say they pay $900 for the box, but do not see any recent sales on ebay, so it is hard to say what I should be looking to get for it.

Thanks, Jason

900 would probably be about right... that is what Dave and Adams would buy it for... you might get a little more on the bay or whatever but then after fees and the headache that could follow i think it would be better to go to DA

yeah man, go for the flat, it'll be easier that way.

Hey Jason, This is pretty weird... You grow up in Minnesota? I see from your public profile you live in Seattle WA... Reason Im asking is I went to High-School with a Jason Eggert... Youll have to get back to me on this...

[jasoneggert]

Nope, not me. I have lived in the Seattle area all my life.

Well, I sold it on eBay. Got $800 for my box. I contacted Dave and Adams about it and they said they wuld give me $800 for it (even though their website says they would give $900) But they were not very trusting. I told them that I had opened a box years ago and got 6 Jordans in the box. They said that was impossible and would not want this box if it were from the same person. There are almost 4 of every card in each box, plus I got 2 stickers. Maybe they thought I meant 6 of the regular cards. Whatever. I guess you have to be a little cautious buying old wax. $800 is fine with me.
