What about a 1/2???

RobE

which one you have?Tell me team and player.
Some sell and others you can't give away regardless of the pop.

Also,there are so many 10s out there now that it's drastically reduced the price of many 9s.

About 6 to 8 each.
There is a Pirate Team collector that's out there on the registry who might be interested in the Ott.

Wow Rob, barely grading fees for 9's. When I was grading 1980's semi heavily, I was getting about $12-$15 per common 9. Common 10's I was getting $35-$50. It's a tough market nowadays for people to grade cards. I don't submit anything like I used to. The only thing worth grading heavily anymore is 1971 and back and those are too tough to find nice. The only left to grade heavily in baseball is 1984 and later commons but at currents levels, those aren't profitable. As soon as enough collector's work on those sets to make them profitable, DSL, JT, and 4 sharp corners will drop about 500,000 graded cards on the market and they will be worthless in 6 months. It's a cycle.

Well,I wouldn't say everything is worthless.There are still cards out there like the #1 #6 the Gossage and other Yankees that Yield some interesting numbers.

I think it's down to 11 cards that don't exist in 9,as well.

The other thing I think is that with the recent explosion of 10s out there that the standard has loosened by compairison to when you were one of the heavy duty 80T submitters.Roger has come up with some very nice results as of late.And,there are some really cool 10s he has up of both commons and stars right now.

WinPitcher

that tells me that if you like the 80's set now is a great time to buy

I stand corrected.........$7.875

Rob is correct - I have been building my 80 set for a while now, and the prices to buy have never been better. However, as a seller, when I sell my doubles (from cards I submitted myself), the results are sad. I bought common 10's for $40-$50 almost a year ago or so, and now - they often sell for no more than $20-$25.

I even grabbed a nice PSA 9 of the tough card #1 for a mere $45 this week. Last one I saw broke the $80 mark.

There's still plenty of money post-71 in football. The surface has barely been scratched in modern and semi-modern football set building.

That is true, Joe.

On the subject of 80's PSA 10's - look at this one. Is this PSA 10 centering? I think not. (And, the seller is in dreamland with his full SMR BIN).

Not a card I would give a 10, but the centering looks fine.

Hard to judge a very bad scan.All squashed with a possible stain on the glass?Some look like hell in ebay scans.Then you open the mailbox, to a package with a nice card your actually happy with.Ahhh Life is full of surprises.

The centering could possibly be compairable to the 600 inside the retired set.The retired card scan is a little bright, but if you saw it in person it has it's bling bling thing going on that everyone who eyeballed it seemed to like for a 10 of a cool card.
