My National Pick-Ups! with pictures

So of course I only collect Basketball Stuff. I didn't find too much but here is what I found. Thanks to JordanGretzky (Chris) for splitting an 89 Fleer Basketball Case along with finding me an him an 88 Fleer Basketball box. Probably the biggest surprise for me at the National was buying a 1992 Jordan Fleer All-Star Card in a BGS 9 for $ 30.00 and cracking and submitting to PSA and pulling a PSA 10!! (See Pictures Below) This is now a pop 3 and is a super tough card to find. The last only known sale according to VCP was in 2013 for $ 1,100.00. I think this card would possibly bring $ 2,000.00- $3,000.00. Shout out to Eric (Those Backpages), Kirk (MrMint) CPA Mike, Chris (JordanGretzky), Logan and Tyler, Thunderdan, Jim (Vintagefun), Mike (Mknez), Matt Miller, Bobby (Bporter), Nathan (80scollector), Evan (Ergoism) and I am sure I am missing someone. Had a wonderful time can't wait till next year.

    1992 Fleer inserts are the BEST! Congratulations on that Jordan. It's fantastic!

    1988 Fleer Basketball is also hot now. I bought 1 pack at the BBCE Booth for $30 on Saturday. Pulled a Miller RC, Salley RC, and Jordan all-star in the pack. All were OC left to right, but still proof that BBCE sells quality un-searched products.

    Thanks for sharing!

    Congrats again on scoring the MJ 10...sweet card. I like the 1961 wrapper too...displays really well. And by the picture, it looks like you still had $1 left in your pocket. Looking forward to catching up with you again soon Dustin.

    Wow, that Jordan sub makes for a very successful National. Nice unopened haul. No vintage singles this year? Cool seeing a hoops update. Thanks for sharing.

    Great job on the crossover. Nice eye.

    Thanks! No I bought two last year so decided the price has gotten too high for me at least. No It did not see any hoops cases. Those are tough to find for some reason.
