    Spend the shipping $$ to and from a slab company, not to mention the grading fees and you'll just be tossing the $$ out. No one will grade it and just the Post Office will make $$. You might as well go give the $30 or so to a homeless shelter or food pantry and feel good about doing something for others.

    I'll give you 2.50 for it shipped to me in a PWE

    I will then immediately burn it.

  • Hey 80's collector:

    That is a great card! I think it could easily get sold for $1,000., monopoly money I mean. Good luck!

    If you send it to PSA, I really don't think it will get graded. They'll probably think its a prank.

  • Haha you guys are crazy, seriously though I think it'll look great in a bgs slab, you guys think they'll authenticate it? They have to right?

    image How did you get my watch? I told that guy at the pawn shop I'd be back for it next week after I scored on some cardboard.

    Don't throw it in the trash. The next time you need to lay some serious cable, pull this bad boy out for a nice clean wipe. Just mind the zig zags.

    << <i>Unfortunately cards are opposite to coins when it comes to factory/mint errors like the OP's card. Now if that card was a coin. It would bring in insane money.

    The only examples card errors are worth more then the corrected versions are for example the Blackless cards in the 1982 Topps baseball set. Or the Horny C3-PO in the 1977 Star Wars set. Just 2 examples. There are many more.

    When a card comes miss cut or damaged from the factory they are considered worthless (unlike with coins) by the card collecting community (except for barfvader). The opposites of card vs coins in this area has always intrigued me. >>

    Wow so sorry to offend you. I was only trying to explain to you why majority on here was saying what they were saying. It was never my intention to put you or your card down.

    I have no idea why you would take my post so personal and for the record I never said you should throw the card in the trash. You said that.

    Next time you ask a question and I know the answer. You can bank on me not helping you. Especially when you have that kind of attitude...

    LOL, did he really get to you?

    I have one that is similar to yours 80scollector, how much would you pay for it?

    drewsef you need to learn how to quote ppl correctly.

    LOL

    and no he didn't "get" to me...
  • drewsefdrewsef Posts: 1,894 ✭✭
    oops, don't know how that happened


    Just in case 80s collector missed it, how much are you paying for such errors? I have one that is more dramatic than yours, also an A&G mini that I would be willing to sale.

    I would have to see the card before I make an offer. Also, I'm not offended by what anyone has said about this card in this thread. The reason I beleive my card could have value is because it is distinct and was pulled right out of the package that way. It's a great card to have. Does anyone else think this card is sweet?
  • this is by far the most stupid thread ive saw on here image

    Super rare card, I can't believe that it made it into packs. Did you call Topps for confirmation that it's authentic?
  • Some of you are letting me down, oh well pics when it comes back from grading!! Give it like 2-4 weeks?
