Which Cobb would you buy ?

I am already commited to one of these. Obviously one is GAI and the other is PSA.

Both are very nice...the top one has better colors but the bottom one has better corners.

BigtimeBowmanfan

Agreed, but 2 grades ? 3 vs 5

I'm not crazy about either. The PSA one doesn't have real good color and the GAI one doesn't have a real crisp image. If I were looking for a decent VG to EX Cobb, I'd hold out for one that has all the qualities for which I'm looking.

I agree with yawie. I also thought the top one was nicer.

was cleaner imo

Both are nice. I like the color and centering on the 3 though. Can I sneak in a scan of mine?? NO?? Well here it is anyways...I have 3 daughters and they could care less, so I gotta show it every chance I get..Thanks for asking to see it. LOL

I definitely prefer the GAI 3 one. The centering is better and that's a big plus for me.

I agree, I like the GAI one better.

Better color, better corners, just like calleocho said.

I like to put things side by side and make a decision.

Honestly, I can't make a decision since IMO, the GAI one was color adjusted or something - it just doesn't have the "pastel" color look it should have - the PSA does.

Sometimes, when a lot of $ is involved, I would rather see in person.

Unfortunatley the cards are in az i'm in jersey. So i don't really have a choice. I am buying the 3.5. But i still have to wonder about the difference in grade's as i also believe the 3.5 looks better or at the very least not 1.5 less. Also the 5 sold for about double of the gai one.

Mike i have dealt with the seller before on other hof T cards and he has alway's been extremely honest so i doubt the colors were altered at all.

But i guess it could be the scannner.

I didn't mean to say "altered" in a sense to deceive necessarily - I just meant the way the guy sets his scanner.

If you get the time, please scan the GAI when you get it.

thanx

Good choice Scott. I wouldve chosen the same 1, and the $ difference doesnt hurt either. Nice pick up.
