Saying goodbye to my Orr today

[Tomi]

Off to Goldin Auctions and will be in their February auction. Tough call to make but needs to be done. Moving things around and I'm very satisfied with the decision. I have more Orr stuff that I won't get rid of but the way the market is now I think the time is right. Good luck if anyone here is bidding on it. Thanks for looking.

I always wondered why the English version says Defence.

Hell of a card to part with.

Good luck with the sale. Someone is going land a great card.

Beautiful card. Great centering, fairly recently graded... so many good qualities.

I just picked up a 6 from REA's last auction and it arrived Monday. I'll enjoy mine for awhile.

GLWS, I'll certainly be following it.

That's a real nice sports car you have for sale!

[clarke442]

WOW!

I haven't seen that card for awhile

Hopefully I can win the Lottery before February

Good Luck

Every once in a while, one sees a card one can only dream of, and this is one of those cards for me.

Good luck with your sale, Tomi.

[Throttlesteer]

The nerve of you to bring that lowly trash in here. Time to up your game.

J/k. Helluva card! Good luck.

Beautiful card Tomi. I'm sure you'll be thrilled with the profit. My guess is the buyer will enjoy a nice profit in another 10 years or so also. Good luck.

That is one beautiful card! I can only imagine what astronomical price it will bring. Any guesses?

Heritage has a 7 & 8 in their current auction....be a good test to see its worth.
The 8 is already at 42K, and it just started...27 days left.
Says estimate 75K +
I am glad to pick one up recently sgc1.5

It's going to hit 6 figures, I'd wager.

WOW ! what a beauty !!!

I'm not a hockey fan and probably only have a hand full of hockey cards but what a beauty!

[Tomi]

Thanks for all the kind words guys. I still can't understand how it didn't grade higher. Every collector and dealer I showed it to agree. Just can't justify spending thousands to review it for a higher grade and getting shut out. You can make more if it bumps higher but if it doesn't then it's no different than flushing the money down the toilet. I think it will do better then the one in Heritage right now which has a soft corner. The term buy the card and not the holder should apply to this auction. Fingers crossed.

There are 8's in 10 holders and vice versa. Years ago I cracked a PSA 8 and resubmitted it and it came back a PSA 10. The money that is exchanged in the difference between a 9 and 10 can be huge, but the difference in the card can be nothing. Same with 8's and 10's sometimes.

You can check out my Orr panel on the PSA registry. I have scans of all the panels up.
