it will be interesting to see what SI collectors to be "high grade"

 

and how that perception will shift as more modern "high grade" gets slabbed

I'll have SI mags in my eBay store soon enough. Those prices I believe reflect, accurately, the difficulty it is to find magazines in high grade. Generally, magazines aren't even produced in the 9.4+ area. I would consider high grade for a magazine, 8.5+.

Pete Rose,Ted Williams, Jordan.

It would have been nice if one or two of the CGC'd books had been entered via the auction process. This could have provided insight on what premium collectors might put on for the CGC certification.

why 8.5?

 

look at comic mags like:

 

Creepy

Eerie

Savage Sword Of Conan

Rampaging Hulk

Vampirella

etc

 

High grade for these is 9.4 to 9.8 in general

 

Why would SI high grade be so much lower? Especially on the modern Jordan/Woods mags?

I may be the first sucker to overpay for a CGC graded Sports Illustrated,

but I'm willing to take the chance.

 

Here's the one I just bought:

Of all his auctions, I thought that was the best investment... but then again, what do I know? This SI grading stuff is still in the early stages.

 

But again... the only 9.8, 1st appearance of a very sought after athlete.. I say good purchase! (thumbs u

Lebron who?

 

 

 

 

 

If Lebron goes to the Knicks, demand for this issue will skyrocket

 

[UnboxingTreasures]

If anyone gets the following in 9.6 or higher, I would be interested in purchasing them:

 

2/15/1998

 

05/28/2008

 

02/18/1991

I wonder did CGC hire more staff or work with the same amount of people on this venture.

[jordanscott]

i'm very surprised there aren't any CGCed Playboys up yet.

I wonder if restored copies are going to start popping up soon

The big issue with SI will be "no label" vs "subscription label" copies, since CGC does not consider these labels a defect (just like arrival dates are not defects).

 

I expect "label" copies will be the outcasts, just like C-OW pages are looked down upon for bronze comics. I would think "no label" copies would sell for at least twice the price of their "label" counterparts.

Anyone have the 1976 Bruce Jenner cover SI after he won Olympic gold?

 

Hey, what do you all think of the "collectible" issues SI puts out, like for the Superbowl champ, or the NCAA Mens' Basketball champs, will any of those be worth a damn, or are they the "variant cover edition" analogy to comics?
