Mark,
Are you talking to me? If so, good to hear from you. Sure, you can shoot me a PM, I don't know how to do "instant message". To do PM, just go to your user settings and enable your PM's, and to send me one just hit the thing that looks like a lock in one of my posts upper right..

Dr. Mike, please teach him about beads as well. He may not be "educated."
This is my favorite set of all time, and I have to say that I am truly jealous. Very nice pick up!!
Back in the late 90s, before everyone started getting every card in the set graded, I bought several raw sets (mostly w/o the MJ) and did what this guy did; putting the perfect set together. In 1999, I started getting them graded (it was $8/card back then!!). Most came back 9s with a couple of 10s and a few 8s thrown in.
I sold off the 10s for BIG money, and the 9s are still in my set today.
Well I ended up sending The Jordan rc to BGS since they have 2 day service level going on for 15.00 a card and I wanted to get it back asap There's not a Huge difference in VCP for PSA/BGS either so I figured this will work for me..
Anyhow got the grade Back today and it got a BGS 9 will post a scan when I get it back Friday..
I have a nice sized lot of the set going to PSA for the December special will also update when the results are in!
I was thinking it would get stronger subgrades compared to other 86 fleers I've sent them. but maybe they are tougher on the Jordan rc? anyhow I'm happy it got the overall grade it deserved.
Sent in a small batch of 30 from the set on the Dec. special here's the grades they got..

well played... so what is the best card? I know some 9's are better than 10's in the set, but I only know the rough values of 8's (I slummed it with the set I guess). Perhaps the 'nique?
Looking for rare Randy Moss rookies and autos, as well as '97 PMG Red Football cards for my set.
Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
<< <i>Yeah that's about the best raw set I've ever seen. A centered Johnny Moore is unheard of; the last 10 sold for $5k. A centered checklist without print marks is also tough, as are Nique, Worthy, Kareem and Lucas. Just looking at the scans you're probably looking at about 85-90% PSA 9s, 8-10% PSA 10s and maybe 5% PSA 8s if that. >>
Ding Ding Ding!
Lee hit the nail on the head - Great set and great prognostication.
Holy Cow!...unreal man...i knew it was to good to be true buying up a 100 count lot of 1986 topps goodens thinking id get rich off it. bought tons of cards in the right year..wrong sport.
Ding Ding Ding! Lee hit the nail on the head - Great set and great prognostication.
I wish I could say it was skill but I went through a few years of mostly buying raw, grading and flipping 86-87 Fleer, so I'm looking through the eyes of someone who's graded thousands of these things. Just like every set, it's knowing what PSA looks for and what they will allow for certain grades. Like I said originally, this is pretty much the best raw set I've every seen and dizz hit the motherload with it.
<< <i>Why would he send just the Jordan to BGS? To fetch more money I guess but that seems odd. >>
I didn't have a PSA membership and I wanted the Jordan graded before I did anything else with the set.. BGS had a 2 day special for 15.00 a card so I figured why not?
I thought Dizzle was always a CDsNuts alt, didn't know they were two different jokers... are these cards hitting the 'Bay or are you trying to sell privately first? PM sent...

Congrats!! Can't wait to see it in the slab.
For the subgrades it got 9-9-9-8.5
