    Honestly, a part of me would rather have the lesser of the 2. That bubble above his hand really takes it away from me. That was all my eye could focus on. Also, if you find the last Ruth but only in an SGC slab, pick it up and cross it over. Easy way to complete the collection at a much lesser cost.

  • @5starcollectibles103
    @5starcollectibles103 2 года назад +2

    I personally like the 15K Ruth. Overall eye appeal was nicer. On vintage lower to mid grade cards I would rather have even wear on all four corners than have three nice corners and one creased corner. The creased corner just pops out. Also the 17k Ruth looked like it had some kind of bubble right in the middle that was a bit distracting. Just my opinion. Nice card though

    When I went to the nationals last year they gave me a floor plan of all the table numbers listed in the exact layout of the overall setup which I thought was great. This would essentially be my floor map. I used a pen to mark my path along the route that I walked to systematically walk through it vs randomly walk around. If there was a card of interest, I circled the booth table number on the sheet and the name of the card on the back of the sheet. It took me a good 2 full days to cover the entire area.

    Don’t get this rational. Upselling grades cause they “look more like another grade” if that’s the case, I’m selling all my PSA 9’s as 10’s from now on. How can we have consistency in the market if this is how we’re setting prices? Also what’s the point of even grading?

    Was it a good idea to tell the dealer you are trying to complete a set instead of just telling the dealer you want that Ruth card & no back story ?

    Geoff, I really enjoyed this video the most from your channel. It captured the pure fun of the National. The end segment with your son Reaves and his friend really resonated with me. I remember being a tad older than Reaves when I attended the 1991 National in Anaheim, and had the same fun and chemistry with a friend as displayed by Reaves and his friend. (I think you and I may be around the same age.) Seeing that end scene brought immediate flashbacks to the 1991 show and moments with my friend with whom I have not seen in years.
    I was worried that you would miss out on the Babe Ruth card when you came back for it. One of the worst feelings at a convention is when you come back for something later and it gets swooped on by another collector. Glad you got #3 of the four Ruths. Hope you get #4 in your next video. Thank you for posting this video. Great content.
