He's waaaay too high, I can see from the scan its no better than a PSA 8. I'd be a bidder but not in that neighborhood.

I wouldn't say way too high, his highest offer right now that he is considering is pretty damn high IMO.

I think this is the most over-rated and over-priced card in basketball, but to each his own.

You are right KMD. It looks like the front of the card has pretty good centering but the back is off. There also appears to be a refractor print line across his knees. It is an awesome card no matter what but maybe a few hundred less than the asking price.

Yeah I'm a PSA 10 snob I guess.

Sold for $1800 buy it now! Unbelievable, I would rather 18 Kobe Autos!! Takes all kinds, takes all kinds!! Thanks for the PM's guys.

wow, that buyer has some interesting feedback - one for being a deadbeat bidder and it also looks like he bought 3 $2000+ steam rooms from one seller recently as well.

Hmmm. Kobe RC or steam room...

Not sure what your comment was meant to mean......

Not to mention, you read the post and then looked up the auction on Ebay and researched the buyers feedback. Hmmmm, too much time on your hands?!

Well, I personally think the guy may be running some "Rub and Tug" or "Jack Shack" deals, but hey, you gotta love America, right?

Just my opinion.....NOT my auction, I am donedealpalebay on ebay, and yes, check my feedback, only 98.8 since the change......

Hugs!
