I'm no PSA expert (in fact, I basically don't believe in graded cards) but that is one sweet Reggie. I'm betting a PSA 9 NQ.

Agreed on the grade!! Why not get it graded, why leave money on the table if you ever wanted to sell it??

handyman · May 28, 2007 9:49PM

I am, Im sending it today. I just got it yesterday.
I think its one of the Nicest centered with sharp corners 1969 jackson I have ever seen.

julen23 · May 28, 2007 9:53PM

w/o telling us teh actual price, did you pay psa 8 equivalent or higher?

truly nice card also.

julen

ps: i would also suggest using the highest priced grading service available, you don't want some bulk graders touching this card!

handyman · May 28, 2007 9:55PM

WAY WAY LOVER THAN AN 8.

handyman · May 28, 2007 10:01PM

It looks like a 9 but I think they will slash it to an 8. 1 of the 4 corners has a tiny chip and on the back the corners are mint. Im hoping for a 9 grade. But the lowest I am expecting is a HIGH end PSA 8. What do you think a high end 8 that centered would sell for on ebay? Im moving to Sweden in 3 months so I need cash.

perkdog · May 28, 2007 10:35PM

Lets get a 9!

ebayaddict · May 28, 2007 11:10PM

8......maybe 7, hope not for you.

mkg809 · May 28, 2007 11:14PM

send it to me and I'll send you my PSA 8!
Very nice. I paid around $350 for mine, but the seller had an error in the listing title and most people didn't see the auction I am sure.
If it's an 8 I bet you will get close to $500 for it. If it's a 9, the sky is the limit.

handyman · May 28, 2007 11:16PM

a 7!!?? Have you seen the 7's that sold on ebay last week. 70-30 centering with clear wear. I dont think this has a slight chance at a 7.
Thanks for the info though

handyman · May 28, 2007 11:17PM

I picked this one up for 310.00

mkg809 · May 28, 2007 11:18PM

Very good buy in my opinion.

mkg809 · May 28, 2007 11:18PM

Looks alot better than my 8.

This card looks awesome I would be more worried about it being a fake then the grade as an 8 is a lock. I would say maybe even 600 based on how this one looks. If you get a 9 then you should consign it to a majore auction house.

handyman · May 29, 2007 2:52AM

Its not a fake. I know how to tell if it was.
I have several 9's that look like this one as well.
Im hoping for a 9. It will be at psa 3pm tomorrow.
Fingers crossed

packman · May 29, 2007 3:10AM

It looks like a solid 8. However, it is difficult to tell by a scan. Nonetheless, after you get the card back from PSA, please send me a PM. I would be more then happy to double your money. Let me know.

CDsNuts · May 29, 2007 3:12AM

Top or bottom edge could be trimmed. If not, should be a high end 8.

Lee

handyman · May 29, 2007 3:12AM

Thanks Ill let everyone know what it grades. But I dont think Ill sell it if its only 600.00. I was hoping for more like 700.00. Which is what Ill put it on ebay for. I just havent seen a PSA as nice as this one if thats what it grades.
Thanks guys.

handyman · May 29, 2007 3:13AM

No the bottom is def. not trimmed it measures perfect and its not a mis cut. Its a gem. Also i paid 310 for it bc I pulled it out of a pack that I bought 4 years ago.

CDsNuts · May 29, 2007 3:18AM

Not sure I understand- you pulled this exact card from a pack 4 years ago, then sold it, and just bought it back?

Lee

Morgoth · May 29, 2007 3:23AM

You can always hope the baseball RC registry starts to heat up. Kurtz Kardz had one with similar centering to your card and was asking $600 at the last chicago sun times show.

packman · May 29, 2007 3:23AM

If it comes back an 8, then send me a PM. $700 is not out of line for that card.

I think he bought a pack 4 years ago for $310 and amazingly just now opened it?

CDsNuts · May 29, 2007 3:29AM

That makes more sense. Sometimes I don't understand things.

Lee

handyman · May 29, 2007 3:32AM

It was fun. I left the wrapper in MINT condition. I think Ill include it or keep it for myself. I kept the wrapper from a 1970 BB pack I busted that I pulled a Pete Rose that graded a 10. Memory sake.

handyman · May 29, 2007 3:34AM

Yea, I bought the pack 4 years ago. And I opened it over this weekend. Its hard to keep a unopened pack collection. I build it up and either sell them or bust them.

Estil · May 29, 2007 6:40AM

Mmmmmm!! Bubble gum!! Gimmie, gimmie, gimmie!!! *grabs gum and chews it*

Ooooooooooh, why do I have such a tummy-ache all of a sudden??? Oooooooooohhhhhhhhh...

WOW, sweet pull from the 69 pack.... congrats....

What else did you pull??? scans????

handyman · May 29, 2007 7:27AM

I sent in the commons as well. The only thing I have is the insert but it has a gum stain. Would yall like to see it?

Goot · May 29, 2007 7:29AM

Of course!

SoFLPhillyFan · May 29, 2007 7:33AM

8 on the card.

No grade on the gum. Evidence of chewing.

Good luck!

Goot · May 29, 2007 7:47AM

How do you wait to open them? I buy some Bowman heritage or 2007 topps and I open them either in the shop or the parking lot. lol.

handyman · May 29, 2007 4:58PM

Not that bad, Mint but ST. Is it worth anything?

frankhardy · May 30, 2007 12:21AM

It is really hard to tell the difference between and 8 and a 9 from a scan. However, I do believe you can tell the difference between a 7 and an 8 most of the time. I think the Jackson is most definitely a high end 8 with a shot at a 9.

I got a kick out of the lower right corner of the wrapper - "a real autographed photo in each pack". OK - send it to PSA/DNA then. They should authenticate that "real autograph".

originalisbest · May 30, 2007 12:30AM

What a terrific pull from that pack! Even just to get a Jackson rookie, but with more typical centering would've been awesome. Good luck on the grade of your gem.

Guess the grade of this Jackson Rookie
