    Nice looking card. Hard to tell value since you can't really grade the card from those pictures.

    You mean to tell me that Jordan doesnt autograph at shows or anything else? 1000 dollar card plus 500 dollar max to pay for the auto if at a show, I would assume.

    Based soley on This, I'd say that's a pretty good price if all is authentic (but buying it raw might not be the best idea!).

    Seller doesn't have any negs/neutrals concerning authenticity of anything he's previously sold.

    I wouldn't expect this card to be around long.

    JMHO,

    One day I'd like to have one of those!
  • that's one sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet looking card - I would not risk it without a PSA Holder... The seller is for sure leaving money on the table with out it being authenticated.

    << <i>where is Navarro? >>




    I gave $1525.00 for mine pictured below. If I needed one and wanted to buy the one from the ebay auction, I would probably offer up to $2500.00 for it, but no more than that. It looks much better than mine, but I would want the card itself authenticated (not the sig, as the sig is definitely good) Jordan is very tough to get unless you have a kid that you can send to his kids' flight school camps (which are priced very reasonably at around $700.00 if I remember correctly) and at the camps, he signs an autograph for everyone which is UDA authenticated on the spot. I do hope the seller gets the crazy price they are asking for though!

    To answer your question though: Worth it? That's only a question that you'll be able to answer for yourself as I've found to be so true recently. Too many variables involved. What will you have to sacrifice to get it if anything? Is it throw away money for you or a significant deal? Buying it for resale, or to keep forever? Is it worth it more to you to potentially overpay according to the market, and let it go, or is it something that would bother you if you let it go and you never found another so striking?

    I occasionally will overpay according to other people's opinions like recently when I spent over $5,000 on an autographed Mantle rookie, but if the purchase makes you happy and you can swing it, go for it!!!

    The card IS 100% authentic as it's very easy to spot these plus the seller has great pics showing great detail...

    The card was signed at Jordan's flight school and he has the certificate of authenticity from upper deck with matching serial #'s on the certificate and the card.. I would have no problem buying this card..

    In fact I would feel safer buying this than a copy slabbed by PSA/DNA , JSA , and of course GAI
