help with unopened value

aloof1003

I need to find out what a 1975 unopened pack graded GAI 10 is worth. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Baseball Card Exchange has a 1975 GAI 9 cello pack for sale for $ 95.00. This is just one example, hope it begins to zero in on it for you.

Here's a question: does anyone know what the GAI grade actually means? Does a GAI 10 have more value than a GAI 9? Both are equally unopened, right? Are the folds "crisper" or "prettier" or something on a 10?

I would put my .02 cents in... but that wouldn't help. Thought a GAI 10 had to come out of a box?

In early advertisements for GAI, they said that the only way for a pack to get a GAI 10 was for them to physically remove it from an unopened box. Same thinking for grading an unopened box GAI 10--they'd have to remove it from an unopened case. I don't know if that's still their philosophy or not. It seems pretty narrow minded. If a pack is perfect, and they're convinced it hasn't been tampered with, then it should get a 10.
