buuduh Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 If it would grade a 9.8 I'd keep it a blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Hog Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I am jealous. Would have loved to grab one but the silvers are pulling me away. In all honesty, I've made some stupid gambles on moderns so I'm going back to what I know for now. I wish I had the extra scratch but alas, whateves.

A-DONIS Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 What about a 9.8 yellow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefs1313 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I'm waiting for the prices to get down to where I believe they should be. $600 for a 9.8 SS, isn't where the value will be 5 months from now (no offense godofthunder) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Linguini Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 considering blue labels go from 350 - 450 - hickmans signature does not add $150 in value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-DONIS Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 So you mean to tell me that the entire RRP market will be 9.8s Be realistic here and quit tinkering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanfingh Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Who was it that was crying about Ebay auction prices of these RRPs being too high a couple of weeks ago? Someone remind me, I can't remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't most of them be 9.8 because everyone who gets one (with few exceptions), realizes the value? Unless there is a printing or shipping issue (Peter pnazerfaust) that I haven't heard of.

A-DONIS Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Believe it or not, the back of these were extremely dirty. If you look at the current sales on e-bay most are nowhere near 9.8s for the raw copies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katchoo Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Yup it seems like many of the RRPs have marks on the back cover ranging from minor to absolutely awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Linguini Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Look at the census. 10 9.8s 1 9.6 0 signature series. So one can assume that all of the on sites came back 9.8 except for 1 and that the census hasn't been updated for the new influx of RRPS that were fast tracked a few weeks ago. Only time will tell, when the census has been updated, if its a tough 9.8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katchoo Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Is there a way of knowing officially if they're allowing for some print defects on the back on the 9.8s? Cos I'll probably get mine done if they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cos I'll probably get mine done if they do. I think that my 9.8 had a few ink smudges on the back and it wasn't a problem. It may not hurt to post the book in the please grade me section and see what the boards think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was Godofthunder. Before he got his raw copy, submitted it, and received a 9.8. Amazing how his tune changes now. Or not really. You're welcome.
