Congrats! Was yours the second gem? What do you think it's worth?

[adavis3232]

They both showed up on pop report around the same time so not sure if mine was 1st or 2nd. I'm not really sure on the value.

Are you selling the psa 10? What were the subs?

[adavis3232]

Are you selling the psa 10? What were the subs?

No I'm hanging on to the PSA 10 for right now. The subs were centering 9.5, corners 9.5, surface 9.5, and edges 9.

Well here it is guys!!!!!!

nice card

Thanks!!!! I think it's pretty sweet.

Very nice card! Congrats.

Very nice! Did you send it to PSA in the BGS case? Surprised it crossed over when BGS gave it a sub of a 9. Awesome that it did though! Maybe I should send over some of my BGS 9.5s to see if I have any luck...

Yes I submitted it in the BGS holder. I had 3 other chrome refractors that I tried to cross of other players on this subject and none of them crossed. The other 3 cards were BGS 9.5s as well.

What is the card realistically worth?

[COMCMax]

What is the card realistically worth?

It's one of those cards you send to PWCC/Probstein. It's got a lot going for it. Tough to put a number on it.

Yeah if I ever decide to sell that would probably be the route I would take.

[Kards]

Are you thinking it's a $1,000 card? $2,000?

[Kards]

The other PSA 10 was just listed. This will be interesting....

Any guesses on how much this bad boy fetches?

The one on eBay looks to be the weaker version. O/C L/R. OP's version should bring a much higher price in my opinion. Easily 4 figures!

[seabass97166]

You need to buy my refractor auto now. Will look better as a set. :)

VERY NICE!!!

[thenwhatjk]

Did all the ones that didn't cross have 9 sub grades?

[adavis3232]

Did all the ones that didn't cross have 9 sub grades?

They other cards I sent that didn't cross were not Westbrook topps chrome refractors. The subs on the other 3 cards I sent in were 9.5 X 4 on the 1st card, 9.5 X 3 with 10 edges on the 2nd card, and 9.5 X 3 with 9 surface on the 3rd card.

Yeah I just looked at the one listed on Ebay and I don't think I would be biased in saying that mine presents much better. Centering is obviously the key attribute on this card. I can honestly say that I have not seen another one centered like mine is which is why from the moment I first saw it i just knew I had to have it!!!!

Send it to Prostein, but make sure not to let him know what your eBay username is so you can shill the $hit out of it and they can claim ignorance.

(disclaimer- just in case anyone didn't pick up on, I am being sarcastic. Shilling is a ridiculous practice that distorts the value of cards and hurts this hobby we love so much).

pretty sick. Wonder what that ones worth. BGS 9.5 sold week or so ago for 920 does psa 10 still get the big premium on an auto card?

[COMCMax]

You have the better of the 2 on the Pop report for sure. The centering on the one just listed isn't as good as yours. That's good for you :)!

The op had a 9 on edges before it crossed. I assume it has an edge flaw. I guess it's all about preference. Better centering or better edges. Regardless will be Interesting to see how the one one he bay does. Already over $400...

Centering carries a bit more weight than edges IMO. I think the OP's would bring 20-25% more because of it. Especially with this particular card. That 50/50 centering is rare in itself.

One way to find out!! Haha

[Kards]

Looks like the psa 10 is over $900 and ends tomorrow night. Any guesses how much this brings? Westbrook has had a great week which I am sure helps this card.

I'll guess $1800. I know adavis3232 will be watching.

[Doublexthebeast]

I'll guess $1800. I know adavis3232 will be watching.

I guessed around $1425. It will certainly bring a ton. adavis3232's centering would get his a slight bump over the one that is currently listed I think. Both cards are great because of how difficult they are to get in high grade.

[Kards]

This will be interesting! Get the pop corn ready. I am guessing over $2k considering how hot he is and the rarity of the card.

Yes sir you certainly nailed it!!!! That is certainly a strong price.

You should have bought it and cornered the market :flex:

The guy who won the "Pop 1" BGS 10 Black Label base chrome for $3k last week....relisted it for 15k. I'd rather have your PSA 10 centered refractor.
