Big eBay Wins
Recent eBay wins, and I’m pretty happy with this little haul. All three were under $20 total.
The Baker Mayfield is probably my favorite of the three. It’s a rookie card, numbered 12/75, and the design is just really sharp. Getting a numbered Baker rookie for what I paid felt like a pretty easy decision.
The Zack Greinke is an All Aces case hit, which was another reason I grabbed it. I’m a sucker for cards that look different from the standard stuff, and this one definitely has that going for it.
And then there’s the Michael Jordan. This one is the wild card. Depending on condition and the grade, I’ve seen potential values around $80 for a PSA 8, $150 for a PSA 9, and potentially $300 for a PSA 10. Obviously, that’s a BIG “if” on the 10, so now I’m staring at the card like a detective trying to decide whether it has a shot. 😂
If the condition checks out, I’m thinking all three are candidates for grading.
Which one would you have grabbed first? And would you grade them or leave them raw?

That MJ design is awesome! I’d probably sit on it and see how the PSA grading mess sorts itself out. I’m a fan of the All Aces set, and the Mayfield is a cool card, too.
Nice haul with some great potential!

Yeah, I’m leaning toward sitting on the MJ for now too. If the grading situation settles down and the card looks clean under closer inspection, I think it could be worth the gamble.
And honestly, getting all three for under $20 is what makes the haul so fun. Even if one of them doesn’t grade as well as I hope, I’m still into them at the price I paid.

It’s kinda how I collect MJ now. Is it a cool looking insert with high grade potential, then I grab it.

As a child of the 90s, I PC Jordan. I’ve got a fair amount of mid to mid-late (1990-1996 ish) cards. I’d be all over the Jordan of the three. All are pretty good pickups. If it were for my PC, the Jordan. For chance at a good grade and flip? Probably the Baker first.

Yeah, i’d have a hard time passing on that one too. There’s just something about those 90s Jordan cards that makes them fun to chase, especially when you grew up watching him.
I’m with you on the Baker for the grading gamble though. At the price I got all three, I figured it was worth taking the shot. Now I just need the cards to cooperate when I get them under the magnifying glass. 😂
