The Bird is the word, no doubt. But I didn't expect this!

So much for my $15 snipe.

    I agree LD, but I've picked up about half a dozen 10's for under $10 each.

    There's a 1981 Donruss PSA 10 of the Bird going on right now too. The Donruss is a pop 3, the Topps a pop 1.

    yeah, if I only could have looked past the 80's craze of only tightly protecting your superstar and rookie cards, I could have potentially made a fortune on high grade commons, lol! Still though, I do have them all stored in heavy cardboard boxes, so it would be worthwhile to go through them, especially on the tough years like 81 topps, 85 donruss, etc. I still find it a bit crazy that 1980-present commons would go for this much, even in a 10. I can totally see it on stuff from like 75 back, cuz "protection" wasn't as big of a deal back then.
