I have wanted to scan this card with the black background for a while and decided to pull the case off the wall tonight and made some fresh scans. It was a great thrill to read this thread and it is amazing I acquired this card over 3 years ago. The pop has remained constant the entire time. It was such a thrill to rip this out of the package. It puts a smile on my face just thinking about it.
This card looks like it must have spent some time on the floor at a wrestling show. The Hogan that looked similar sold for $15 so you have to think this seller was thrilled to see a $25 offer for this card come in.
Andre is now a Pop 3. It has been over 3 and a half years since another one hit the pop report. It will be interesting to see if it was a cross over of the recent BGS 9.5 that looked nice or a fresh raw copy.
I check every day and saw there was only one new card graded in the total and that usually means a bigger card from the set and the first row said three and I had to do a triple take.
Monster card...most likely the recent BGS sale that was a 9.5. It looked great.

It definitely wasn't crossed over. Hopefully the Andre PSA 9 will come to EBAY through PWCC in the coming months. I would love to see where the market on the card is.
I remember when we were impressed when the one Andre PSA hit $2104 and now this one is at $3150 with much time to go. Great news for high grade cards and for wrestling cards........

There are 52 watchers on the card. I honestly have no clue where it will end. If I had to guess I see two major snipes colliding at the end at a very high price. This is going to be a very tough card for someone to win.

This is a new record for a wrestling card. A year or so ago I was having some dialogue with a dealer who has been active in grading this set and he estimated a PSA 9 would bring $3,500 to $4,500. I liked his answer but there wasn't any activity to go with it.
In my daily pop report check I saw the 9 column uptick by one so you know it’s a good card. I said I bet that’s an Andre to myself. It was. Pop 4 now and must be a stunner.
It will be interesting to see if his collectibles get a boost from the upcoming HBO special. I just hope the SJW’s don’t watch some of the shoot interviews with guys like Bad News Allen and make a big deal out of it.
They already got WWE to remove The Faulous Moolah from a women’s battle royal.
I put in some early bids on this card but it is going to go much higher than where my bids are I think. This Andre is going to do very well because it is a very nice 8. There have only been two PSA 8's come into the pop report in the last few years so little ability for new collectors to grab a strong PSA copy. It will be interesting to see how this card finishes.
There are 74 watchers on this Andre and just yesterday it was at 35. I wonder if there is some website that is featuring cards because a similar thing happened recently with a Hogan that was auctioned off. It had over 100 watchers and that is a lot for a wrestling card. This is a great copy so I suspect it has a shot to break a $1,000 but time will tell.
this has been amazing to watch....great price for a PSA 8 from the 1980s

There was a strong price for an Andre the Giant PSA 7 the other night too. Andre cards are picking up right now. :-)

This Andre PSA 3 just sold for $195. This card is taking off just like so many others.
A PSA 3 from the 1980's going for almost $200 is pretty crazy! wow!

This is a very nice card and got the PWCC High End designation. Looking forward to this auction.

Man the Andre card has been getting some action of late in these mid grade copies.
Nice to see.

Up to 116 watchers with four hours to go and up to $1,159.
No telling where this finishes. Very curious to see obviously.
