Star cards are gaining steam and will pass this 86 Fleer
Statistically, every ten wax packs had one Jordan rookie. So every one million wax packs had 100,000 Jordans, and none got thrown away by Mom! There's an immense supply of this card, as stated, but the demand is even more immense.
It's estimated that there's approximately 35k Jordans in existence
I bought two PSA 9’s for a little over $1000 10+ years ago. I had a chance to buy a PSA 10 for 7k back then but thought it was too much!! Bad move.
Great topic, hence what made me click on this video. I wish the video was longer though and much further analysis was done on population, pricing history and whether the current price is fair for the card. Also keep in mind this card has probably been cracked and regraded many times so the population count may be higher than reality. Will be waiting for part 2 😄
That picture’s silhouette of Jordan tomahawking would make a great replacement for a new NBA logo just saying
I saw a nicely centered PSA 6 on EBay for $6,000.00. I only collect PSA 8,9, or 10 for all cards but Jordan is an exception. Is a Jordan PSA 6 rookie worth it and will it hold its value years from now. Or are the PSA 9 and 10 so overvalued, once this prices come back to reality, the PSA 6,7,8 will also become more affordable?
PSA 4 or better and you should buy.
There are less Jordan Rookie Stickers then his Rookie . using 1988 - 1989 fleer which would be his 2nd year card you can pull on average 4 2nd year Jordan's compared to 3 2nd year Jordan stickers. what has disappeared is the set builder or collector .
In general set building has declined, but 1986-87 Fleer is an exception.

1st Thru 4th year fleer are all
hard to find centered white boarder cards are extremely tough to get graded.
Like the way you have Fleer Roockie card. Jordan's roockie year was 84-85. His true roockie card is a 1984 Star..which are harder to find and grade than his Fleer 86ml.
i believe star is considered to be an xrc rookie card
Theres a new generation of card collectors adding to the demand
I didn't buy it in the late 80s for $8 raw, not going to buy it now for $800000 psa 10. I'm an XRC or RC collector. Jordan's RC is 1984!!!!!!
The Star card co 5x7 #26 is the real Jordan rookie card.
Truth
I have all set Barcelona 92'
Star 101 is Jordan's real rookie. The only argument against it is the counterfeiting. And it says right in this video the Fleer is most counterfeited card. And the Star is much more rare as well.
@@ammocan2796 and btw I've spent a lot of time researching this lately because I'm an investor as my regular job and looking to put some money into alternative assets like cards. I've spent time looking at the real and fake Star 101s, it's very easy to tell the difference. I did a test on my friend (who just bought 3 101s) from 6 feet away and he could easily tell, no equipment needed. It's not even close.
@@ammocan2796 the thing about that theory is Beckett is currently the only one grading Star. They didn’t have to do that, because PSA was to lazy and stopped at some point. So why would they be grading it if they want the Fleer to dominate? But I think PSA might start grading Star again with the new management there. And that will be the catalyst for the 101 value to soar. The pop counts are like 200 Star compared to 10k Fleer on any given grade.
The Jordan Star RC card was counterfeited using the original Star printing plates making the counterfeit identical to the original. The Jordan Fleer RC was not counterfeited w the original Fleer printing plates & easy to distinguish the real from the counterfeit
@ammocan2796 I wasn't saying the 101 was reprinted by Star, I meant all expensive cards have counterfeits. And the Fleer has a lot more. Believe me you won't find anyone who knows more about the Star 101 than I do. I literally talk to Steve Taft fairly often haha
@@ericb4498 Where do you get this crap from? I bet you can't even find anyone outside of maybe a forum, but defiantly not any website even saying this. Completely 100% incorrect!
Supply and demand simply put.
Wilt Chamberlain is the greatest of all time.
i have a PSA 5
Grading , the scourge of the hobby.
PSA 10 350K now
If confirmed, 2 went over 700k now🤯🤣
@@manila_thrilla yup saw it today
The city threw away a box of my sports cards, they need to replace. I had this whole set from 1986 and star 84 sets!
@@josephercastor8026 The city???
What do you think brady cards are going to be like
I have that card how do I sell it
I'm just saying this vid has 4k views imagine if they would get 10k-30k some yugioh channels and magic the gathering 20 to 100k
$10,000 and up each psa or not
First off this isnt Michael Jordan's RC. It's his 3rd year card. His actual first card which is his actual RC is the 1984 Star Co. 5x7 Blue Border Court Kings. People need to STOP Pretending his 1986-87 Fleer #57 is his RC. It's pure Blasphemy in the Sports Card Hobby. Give Credit where Credit is Due.
The Star Court Kings 5 x 7 is Jordan's true XRC, being a subset card distributed prior to the base set. The Star 101, being the regular issue base set card, is his true RC. By contrast, the 1986 Fleer #57 is Jordan's overproduced 3rd year card. I agree with your assessment that it is pure blasphemy in the sports card hobby, and PSA is complicit with their refusal to grade some of the most historically significant basketball cards of all time!
Exactly right. It's Fleers roockie year 1986 not Jordan's. Been pissed about this for years. He played 82 games in 1984 and average 28.2 pts a game.
@@waltercopus1485 stfu, it's always been listed as his rookie card since 1990 when I read my first issue of Becket. Though we know his rookie card from '84 which is irrelevant. Just quit whining about it
The grading companies are buying this crap up to reel in the suckers
I have a card from Michael Jordan that may interest you upperdeck 1993-1994 season write if you are interested
I avoid all "rookie cards" (unless I collect them from a pack), I leave those for little men with small members, prices for cards like that are a joke, they are not valuable....a lesson some of you are going to learn the hard way, but good luck with that. Collect the cards you like, but rookie cards are a scam plaguing the hobby for decades, it's not worth it. Peace and Good Luck.
Thats it - hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people who want this card are wrong, and you're right. Get over yourself.
Overvaluated
Good video. But Jordan is NOT the GOAT. Stop believing the media hype
Nah, facts, not media. That guy was just ridiculous. I saw him play. Believe the hype.
@@rf4790 I did as well. Rule changes to benefit the triangle offense coupled with dilution of the league by expansion. The Jordan bulls benefitted by rising to prominence in the 90s'
because it is soooo overated! find the players which are so good today! why MJ??? he is a fake goat helped by NBA win by using the Refs
He dominated an era that had magic Johnson, Larry bird, isiah Thomas and the bad boy pistons the nba is way softer today, u could argue that the modern day teams benefit from the change of the game u speak of.
He must be blind ? Did he not watch this guy fly for 14 seasons because the planet sure did ! Smh
