Default what should I expect to pay?? (experts please help)

Posted By: pete

Ok, I have a rare opportunity to purchase 2 1914 Cracker Jack Joe Jacksons, 1 SGC 50/4 and a PSA 4. Since they are for my collection (and not to re-sell, at this time) what should I offer to pay for each of these cards? Should I pay more for one or the other because of the grading company? The only difference I can see is the SGC 50/4 has better corners and a little better centering. The seller wants me to make an offer first before hearing his asking price. What do you guys (and gals) think??

Thanks for any help!

I am not a card guy as all here know, but it sounds like the seller is gonna take your offer and shop the heck out of it and jerk you around.
When a seller has an asking price, but wants you to make an offer, that is what usually happens.
If he has the cards graded then he is no out of the hobby amateur. He is jerking you around.

I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.

it's a tough card and a great player....5k would be more than a steal. A psa 3 one recently sold on ebay for $6,100.

According to the SGC Population figures, there is no SGC 50 1914 CJ Joe Jackson. Either the card was graded in the last several days (at the National) or the seller is pulling your leg. Do you have an image of the card?

there is on '14 cj jax in the current mastro auction. 8k for a '15 is reasonable now, so dan's 10k isn't so bad. i'd try to get it more down to 8.5-9k.

the 1914's are much tougher and should bring 1500-3000 per grade more then the 15's and it really depends on how lucky you are .

The 1914's are most likely on alot of peoples want lists, so....expect to pay more fot it.

I agree that the most you would like to be at is Quan's mark and it isnt out of the question, but a psa 4 or sgc 50 is a really nice grade for the 14 issue.

I you get it for 5k and want to make a quick 2k ,Im ready.

Dan
