The constant underhand mudslinging and counter pumping twixt the 57 n' 101 camps is truly a sight to behold. Just pure, unbridled dandyness.

The funny thing is how I hear these YouTubers saying they're gonna hold out buying a Star until the PSA pop grows and prices stabilize
Yet they tout 86 Fleer which has a population the Star will never even remotely come close to Um....PSA 10 86 Fleer goes from 750-500k to 180k (and likely going lower in this worsening economic environment) within a 2 year span????? If that doesn't show price stabilization (and major pump and dump manipulation scheme ala PMGs) then I don't really know what does??? The high pop on 86 Fleer is what hurts it But both Star and Fleer are historically important cards Both of these cards will rise and fall in unison but the Fleers value will always be capped imo The pop is just too high on them Don't even mention the Panini modern insane pop count pump and dump scheme Modern is just pure trash man I digress but don't even waste your money Last edited by Starman101; 09-24-2022 at 12:49 AM. |

If the star 101 was such a great card and all these Jordan collectors had to have one, why didnt they buy them before? Why was it that PSA had to "authenticate" them as the true rookie to have validation with these so called Jordan guys? Wouldn't they have under ground thought that was "the" rc all along?
This reeks of manipulation at the highest end. The 101 will drop, then the 86 will pop. Its just a game with the same people making money.

Ton of Jordan collectors did think that. It was the Fleer that was being pumped because they were easier to obtain and push. When I grew up, the kid down the street that had a Jordan “rookie” had a Star. There is no doubt that PSA choice to grade has added hype around this card, but the main reason it was held down was a lot of bad information surrounding the provenance of these cards, which the choice by PSA has lifted to some degree (even though it didn’t change the facts).

I wouldn’t blame this on Jordan guys. Jordan guys already had the card(s) or the one they liked over the other. This is all PSA bs hype now that they are grading. Just people wanting to legitimize them to make more $. No new information has come out.
As to this which is the real RC argument? Why does it have to be 1? What’s the real Brady or Griffey or Kobe or Lebron rookie? There isn’t 1? |

Agree with this for sure. The choices aren’t mutually exclusive. Own both if you can! I had a choice to buy a star 8.5 or a Fleer 9 a few years ago and I chose the star because that was always the rookie to me. That said, I still want a Fleer someday. Both good cards that belong in any Jordan collector. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

86 Fleer MJ PSA 10 just did 174k. What is the floor on these? Correction on these higher pop high-premiumed cards is pretty nasty but anyone with more than two functioning brain cells could see the correction coming from a mile away.

I remember in the 90s during the last bubble there was a general perception or "collective wisdom" that all Star Jordans were fakes, but even 86 fleer Jordans were sketchy then--everyone had their magnifying glass to check the print dots. Basically it was a scared market among general collectors. Even today there is so much misinformation about Star (including on BO) that it feels risky to mess with them, and PSA adding the perception of legitimacy naturally would boost value. I own a lot of Star cards (no Jordans) but I still wouldn't buy a raw Jordan. Right now I wouldn't buy a graded Jordan, either. Believe it or not, legit raw 101s are still turning up.

But how many other PSA insiders knew this information in time to buy up Star cards before the announcement? Part of the reason cards have seen so much growth is because it's unregulated so the big fish can manipulate and take advantage of insider info to their heart's content.

With that said, those who knew that PSA (whether employees or friends of employees) would grade such cards definitely started loading up on them prior to the announcement. |

Glad more and more people are seeing through the B.S.
Time for me to call you jealous haters and conspiracy theorists and make a reference about how you're just mad because you're not making money pillaging the hobby like I am and then make a post on IG and close it with #thehobby
