PSA 8

PSA 7

Other PSA 7

I've been trying to pick up one of these for a long time. Not really sure which one to go with........help me decide!

Both 7's look great but the centering on the 8 is very nice.

Please let me know your thoughts, money is not a factor for me right now.

If money is not a factor, I would go for the 8, the centering on it is awesome. Between the 7's, I like the "other 7" better.

If money is not a factor, I would hit the 8. The centering is much better than those two 7's and overall it looks like the cleanest card.

Whoa Mark. We almost said the same thing

Is this a rhetorical question? You didnt need us for this.

Those two PSA 7's ending within one minute of each other may hurt one or both of the sellers.

For the dollars that the 8 is going to bring, I would ask for a better scan with a black background. Maybe I'm fussy but I don't like the 2 bottom corners at all.

Sure has nice centering and none of the print spots they almost always have.

You know what they say, guys that waste too much time and money on 90s football cards think alike.

I may be wrong, but the PSA 8 image has been enhanced to make the black look darker and cleaner. This can be seen by looking closely around the lettering spelling out Jimmy Brown.





If its legit and the image is original, it may be one of the cleanest JB RCs I've seen with regard to the black. I just bought a PSA 6 (which I want to sell) and PSA 7 (which I'm keeping). I'm tempted on this, but I'll wait for one that's a little nicer on the corners. I don't like the two bottom corners, especially the lower right...

It also seems like jendell2000 is bidding on the Browns again. He ran the last batch of PSA 7s up from $550 to $800+ in a matter of months. Then he sold some off and took a short hiatus (while I got my PSA 7 at the "old" price). It will be interesting to see how these two cards close based upon the economic conditions everyone is clammoring about and to see if jendell2000 the high bidder again.

I don't imagine anyone that would bid on that card is suffering any current economic conditions (other then 401K loss or the like).

That would be like going to a Memory Lane auction and suggesting since they are doing fine $ wise, that those laid off in Michigan this month should relax.

I was referring to the two PSA 7s, not the PSA 8.

Jendell bought one of my PSA 7's for $525 and sold it two months later for $800......I guess it looked better two months later! Oh well! I have an SGC 4 up for $47 if interested! The PSA 8 should bring around $2,000.....

Ahmanfan

have a link to the sgc 4?

It's ok....Ive had better, but it is a decent 4....would probably get more money in a PSA holder with the same grade, but I just prefer the SGC holder with the white border 1958 cards....makes them pop out better.
