While you guys are shocked over Jordan's stickers...

[bigaust001]

I'm a bit shocked by this one. (http://www.ebay.com/itm/1986-Fleer-Sticker-Kareem-Abdul-Jabbar-1-PSA-10-GEM-MINT-PWCC-/351726632897?hash=item51e48a7fc1:g:cg0AAOSwt7pXLUCW)

Pop 11 and pulling this much...

[njdunkin1]

Maybe it's just me, but the centering seems wayyy off for a 10. At best looks like an 8.5 grade. Still, beautiful card :)

[UD40]

Speechless....

Seriously....

[imbluestreak23]

This is getting bananas

[6celtics33]

Somebody really wants to decorate their lunchbox pretty bad I guess

[BestRCs]

Man... that is crazy!...

I saw this one on the "people who viewed this viewed these.." bar and was stunned too..

Whats up with stickers these days?

[ND3]

Price manipulation most likely. Gotta wonder how much of this stuff for that goes for shocking prices actually gets paid for.

[SPauthentic84]

For the life of me, I will never understand why people spend so much on a card that there are literally hundreds of thousands of. I like graded cards as much as the next guy, but not for the difference in price based on what some overweight grader making $17 an hour says

[6celtics33]

Registry maniacs. No idea on the Kareem but that 88 Jordan is tough. Pop 11 between Beckett and psa combined.

[GC1980]

Kareem sticker is a VERY tough card in 10 and there has only been one up for sale in the past year. Before that one hadn't popped up on the open market since 2013. 86 fleer and the sticker set are very sought after with a ton of competition for the best on registry. It's likely a combo of pent up demand based off registry competition, egos and perhaps a little old school shilling thrown in for good measure. I don't think it's clear manipulation like the MJ.

PWCC Auctions eBay Broker (http://www.pwccauctions.com/item.php?item_no=87357)

Has to be price manipulation that's some crazy money.

[ninjacookies]

Registry maniacs indeed.

It's ludicrous and logic gets tossed out the window. Combine this with PWCC and guaranteed 'new all time highs!' things get comical.

You have to wonder there. The registry maniacs have been around for well over 2 decades. Where were they when the Kareem sold for 2k just 5 years prior?

Seems like holders are all in a frenzy to cash in now with all this vintage hype and some carefully placed secondary bids.

[coltsnsox07]

All I see is Scott Wedman, whom Larry Bird made fun of all the time for being a vegetarian...

[Kobe101]

What does registry maniacs mean?

I understand it has to do with psa but what are people trying to obtain that makes the prices go nuts

[6celtics33]

The highest gpa I guess. I don't quite get it either.

[tristan20]

Expect a flood of PSA junk hitting the market soon, they must be making the most out of all these fake sales

It's a who's johnson is bigger contest for vintage collectors.

Just a registry where guys get to show off their partially completed or completed graded sets. Nothing more.

^^^^^
THIS!!!

I just dont think this runup of PSA graded 86 Fleer is sustainable

Dont believe the hype

Thats why although I love 86 Fleer, I stay on the sidelines for now :flex:

Agree 100%

[Mongol]

Agreed, nothing but price manipulation. Over the past 3 weeks the Psa 10 Jordan fleer Rc shot up from 17-22k card to now 30k?

The fleer sticker 86 is butt ugly. I really don't understand the price hike on that either.

[alexcampos]

I'll never understand this but, I don't question it anymore.

[saraceno21]

The Jabbar sticker centered well is a tough card to find. This isn't like the Jordan sticker price fixing that there have been recent rumors of. This card is legit scarce in a PSA 10 slab.
