  • handymanhandyman Posts: 5,396 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Yea, I was hoping I could get the 9. Its probably in the top 5 of all the PSA 8s out there of this card.
  • mkg809mkg809 Posts: 1,320 ✭✭
    I think I would try again, but be careful cracking!!!
  • handymanhandyman Posts: 5,396 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I may, I think Ill take it to PSA at a show and have them do it in person. What do yall think though?? Try again???? Or keep a very very high end 8??
  • handymanhandyman Posts: 5,396 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I may be interested in trading these cards. And if you didnt know I love Pete Rose cards. PM me if you have an offer. But Im going to have to ask over SMR bc this card is just too nice, and I think it should be a 9.
  • handymanhandyman Posts: 5,396 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Which looks better????

    how much are you looking for the Reggie?

    Where did you purchase these cards before they were graded?
  • packCollectorpackCollector Posts: 2,786 ✭✭✭
    tough to tell from a scan but the corners look like they have slight touches on them which would be apparrent under magnification and the determining factor from an 8 to a 9
  • handymanhandyman Posts: 5,396 ✭✭✭✭✭
    No I checked it out. There is one corner. The bottom left that has a tiny tiny chip, not wear. And Ive had 9s have it before. Very high end. Once I get it back Ill take photos of the corners.

    I just checked the SMR and dang there is a huge jump in price. I can't even imagine what a 10 would go for. Congrats and such a nice card!

    My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

    I'd like to see a close-up of the corners when you get the card back as I have interest in it.

    No problem. I think they will be here on wed so ill email more pics. I hate to sell it but I need money for a PSA 1963 rose
  • TNTonPMSTNTonPMS Posts: 2,279 ✭✭
    That is a sweet Reggie . . . I don't care what no-one says .
    Minor flaws . . . everyones got em . . .

    I guess that's why someone like me could never work at PSA doing grading .

    I'd grade with my heart for certain .

    When I was growing up I wanted to be Reggie .
    And we don't even have the same kinda hair .

    I'd slap a better grade than an 8 on it for sure .

  • TNTonPMSTNTonPMS Posts: 2,279 ✭✭
    It's just a little bend . . .
    It's Reggie man !
    Reggie to me back in the days was synonymous with the New York Yankees .

    Hell . . . . Baseball! What the heck am I talkin about ??
  • mkg809mkg809 Posts: 1,320 ✭✭
    Here is mine. Yours is much nicer.imageimage

    Truly a great card. 8 or 9 when it is that pack fresh does it really matter?

    That's one sweet card, handyman! And it took some stones to bust that 69 wax pack, too! Did the Jackson come out of that pack? Great pull!! I agree that it's right between an 8 and a 9, closer to a 9 than an 8, IMO.

    Handyman,
    I would be very interested in purchasing that Jackson from you.
    Please drop me an email at: robinson209@comcast.net to discuss further.
    Thanks!

    Handyman,
    I failed to mention that I have a nice 63 Rose Rookie PSA 8 that I might be willing to part with.
    Hope to hear from you. Kirk robinson209@comcast.net
  • handymanhandyman Posts: 5,396 ✭✭✭✭✭
    PM me about the offer.
    Thanks

    Handyman,

    I'd pay $ 1000 for your PSA 8 Jackson RC. Email me at machemehl@insight.rr.com if interested.

    Thanks,
    Mike

    handyman: that is one tremendous Jackson RC. Most have tilt and the lack of tilt on yours is what makes it so rare. Congrats!

    handyman,

    I remember the thread from when you first posted the Jackson... I thought it looked like a 9 ....

    I think I might give it another try...

    Sweet card either way...

    I would sell it on Ebay with a high starting price. I would be interested in it.
  • GonblottGonblott Posts: 1,951 ✭✭
    Yeah, I'd bid on the bay too.

    I own the 7th current finest Pete Rose registry set, and would be willing to bust it for a shot at that Jackson.

    Nicer then a 9 i sold Novella a few years ago.
  • sayheykid54sayheykid54 Posts: 779 ✭✭
    Maybe it's just my eye, but the card graded doesn't appear to have the same centering as the first posted picture. Is it a different card? It sure looks like it.
  • sayheykid54sayheykid54 Posts: 779 ✭✭
    My bad. I just noticed that It was posted by somebody else.

    My scanner looks a little dirty. But this is one sharp card.
  • onlyanumberonlyanumber Posts: 2,433
    I would definitely try a crack and resubmit. That could easily become a 9...
    Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

    Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12

  • handymanhandyman Posts: 5,396 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I was just thinking that. I should have sent them more cards. The group I sent it in with was only 3 cards and none of them were 1969s. I sent in a 1952 Bowman and a 1968 Topps card with it. All completely different cards. I always see to get grades that I feel the card should, when I send over 40 cards. But who knows. I love this card no matter what case its in.
