Poll: Would You Make This Trade For a Ruth RC?

[Orioles1954]

I think the Ruth card is pretty bland and it depicts him as a member of the Red Sox. Don't forget that the 1986-87 Fleer Michael Jordan card has mega potential too. It could be argued that he has more of a global appeal than Ruth. I would consign the cards, buy the Ruth outright and have some more $$$ to spend.

Can you counter offer at this juncture? I think I would either pull the Koufax or see if the guy will kick in a couple of cards with the Ruth.

I dunno. I think at some point the Jordan Fleer card is going to collapse (or at least decline) in value because of how many of them are out there. PSA alone is showing over 13,000 on the population report and 160 PSA "10" cards. There are also undoubtedly lots of Fleer Jordan cards that have yet to be graded, considering it is only a 25-year-old card.

any decision on your trade?

Trade value is about even with what you are giving up
for the ruth rookie. The question is is it more fun to own all your cards or to own just one card the ruth rookie?

[Jdoggs]

Are you leaning towards making the trade or not?

I'm curious to see if he pulled the trigger.

Seeing and considering all the different viewpoints has been great. I've developed a plan accordingly, and will report back soon to share how it went.
