CMIZE wants to know what SMR is for those 2 cards as one of the many tools to value cards..


Whats also funny is that when a card goes crazy..its like the once 'crazy' BIN price thats been sitting there is the only thing stopping the bidding...there is another psa 7 1951 Bowman Mays listed for 29k...im sure a day ago, that guy would of taken 25k.......if the BIN was for 35k...maybe the bidding on the one that sold today goes to 30k is my point...

im guessing that BIN one for 29k will be sold very soon

That Ryan 5 doesn't make any sense. Hard to imagine two people mis-typed their snipes but you never know.

The Mays has been over due. It's been under-rated for a while in my opinion.

Idk what the SMR is but your right on with your assessment. When things really started to pick up . I noticed all the low grade mays rookie were bought up on eBay.

For a crazy ask how about the SGC 6 51 Mantle up for 45k. I didn't bother to check VCP but I'm pretty sure that's 3 times the average as well, if not 3 times the all time high.

Edit: VCP AVG: 7157.25

I don't think that price is that crazy at all. That SGC 6 is a pretty great example of that card, and in a grade that does not surface too often. Better than average centering with very sharp registration. I follow Mantle prices and the 7s are now $100,000 cards. A 6 for less than half the 7s seems reasonable.

That seems unlikely. Two 8s sold recently in the 150-160 range and historically there is a big jump from 7 to 8. About 3x. That would put a 7 in the 50-60 range. Unless you're aware of some private sales I haven't heard about.

And even if you're right, that's for PSA, not SGC. In November last year an SGC 6 Mantle went for 7.7k. A PSA 6 Mantle closed a few days ago for 24k, I believe in a PWCC auction. 45k for an SGC seems like a stretch, even with the nice centering. That would be a 500% increase in 6 months.

Looks like 6s came down a touch. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1951-Bowman-...p2047675.l2557 Not sure the winner of the SGC 6 is feeling the price he paid was too reasonable, now. Can you say MARKET CORRECTION?

If 45K is not a crazy price than what does that make this one? https://sports.ha.com/itm/baseball-c...links-12202013
