as for the op it's a $50-$70 card. non ud griffey signed rookies don't get that big a price...kinda like greg maddux the supply more than meets the demand. if the regular issues like topps/fleer/donruss get $75-$90 then these star cards is a tier below that.

Well Its seems that I might have paid a bit more for it then, but I thought the card was in great condition and thought the auto was nice too. I didnt want to go the 1989 UD route, everyone has that card it seems.

Even though its a checklist card, I like it

So why in the world is this listed for this amount:

I'm sorry if my post had any ill-will, but you are correct, the example you picked up is amazing.

In regards to your question, ppl chase the slab grade and not the card. Your card I would believe would garage that well (I would believe based off corners, edges, centering but not survive that we can see). Plus, it's a rookie era auto!!! So what if you pay a few bucks more. I would trade in my Mantle signed rookie for a Mantle signed rookie in awful shape for a rookie era sig on it, not a card show sig.
