$100 k for a '54 Topps pack?
Granted, it's a rare pack. But is any pack worth $100 k? I'll save my $100 k for some Goudey packs...

Mark Murphy is not a grader fpr GAI.
The pack was fantastic.
Thanks H. Walker
Of course I realize that this pack would never be opened (at least 99.99% of me believes that) and the coin is derived from a 'unopened' collectable state, but it is interesting nonetheless.

But he used to be. He said he never graded his own packs and I believed him, but not all in the marketplace did.

What you say is true. Just so you know that pack was graded at the National, not while Mr. Murphy was grading for GAI.
I just don't want to see another great pack get dumped on like some have on other packs where the information was incorrect.

A question about the grading at the show. Does this mean that Paul was up to going to the show? I know that he has been bound to the chair for some time and has trouble getting around. I haven't seen him at a National in many many years. Or did someone else grade it?

and that kaline is an awesome pack , I don't care who graded it as long as mark approves of it and hopefully it was passed in front of paul wright. if it was graded by global without paul , the fact that it is owned by murphy is much more credible in my mind and probably the only way I would consider it

To my knowledge Mark Murphy is no longer grading packs for GAI and he hasn't been for over a year now. As for the pack $100K seems INSANE to me but then again i didn't tie up the money to purchase the pack he did so i guess he has the right to ask whatever he wants to for it. My guess is that when it does sell your looking at a $20K-$30K pack. It is an awesome pack.

Is the pack really worth this figure of $100K?, from a rarity standpoint I am sure that their is no other pack like this in exsistance, but looking at the Kaline rookie it probably would not get a 9 grade if busted and submitted, I am sure that the pack if bought would probably not be opened but would all the cards in this pack add up to this figure? I dont know much about Pack collecting but the price seems a bit steep. I talked to Mark about a year ago and asked him about a figure for a 52 pack and he told me they go for about 5-6 grand. Has the market changed since then? I would think a 52 pack would be more valuable than this.

or vice versa and it went to an unlucky soul for 9500-12500
a couple years ago.."ungraded" and i am certain it will
remain that way
