Confused to say the least. Was hoping to do much better than this image
First - the real heartbreaker is that not one of these made it into a 10 slab. I have over 60 psa 10's from this set...at least 2 of these are better than/equal to half of those. Will likely be cracking and resubbing someday.

image

Next up...identical cards, one gets a 9 and one a 10...confusing to say the least.

image

And two examples of cards that look no different (if not better) than other 10's I have.

image

I have others (ie 3 regular Jordans all identical, and got two 9's and an 8)...but the scans above sum it well. Little consistency, and more harshness than I would have assumed from all the other 10's I have. Ugh.
Looking for rare Randy Moss rookies and autos, as well as '97 PMG Red Football cards for my set.

    Sorry you didn't get what you were expecting! image I love the cards. And yes, the Dell Curry's look identical!!! The only card from this set I own is the John Salley....it was the first basketball card I ever bought in fact!

    Of course the Jordan rookie didnt make it into a 10...that would be a $3,000 card then......did you submit it under for $50+ grading fees and insure it for $3,000??? Or did you submit under a $4.50 special?

    No Jordan rookies here - 3rd year cards where the regular issue sells between $200 and $275, and the AS for $250+ from what I've seen. And of course its under the $4.50 special...won't be resubbing under that...sadly.

    I think they got the Ewing's right, Everytime I see a PSA 10 with a bunch of print dots I shake my head..
    I can't really vouch for the rest as the scans are not the best.. I'm assuming the ewings have even more printing flaws then what shows up in these scans...

    The PSA 9 Curry has a couple of scratches (one next to his left shoulder, and the other between the team name and his position) that the PSA 10 doesn't have.

    The Curry - what you see on the 9 is the scanner (ie the thing above his left his left shoulder, line to the right of the 's' in Cavaliers).
    As for the Ewing, I'm torn. I will have to check them again, but they certainly have sharp eye appeal - more than the regular Jordan psa 10 I have. The dots are small blown up, so I probably glanced right over them since they would have been that much smaller in-hand. I will have to review the others (9's and 10's alike) to see if that print-dots where a consistent deal breaker/maker.

    mint 9 is nothing to be ashamed off....

    PSA is very stringent and a PSA 9 means they found just 1 minor flaw.......close to a 10 but just not there.....
