48 HR TRADE: Sweet 1971 Topps Nolan Ryan!

[NattyBoo]

What you see is what you get! Question is, what will I get!?!​

If I get 10 offers, it's gone to one of you. Wide open to offers, as always. Start it off with a pile of tube socks if you want... build up to DVDs, Games, Cards, first-born, whatever! Have fun, fight nice!

Half-eaten apple, coupon for 50 cents off Golden Grahams, 74 bread twist ties... no one wants to open?

Pile of tube socks it is:boogie:

 

[NattyBoo]

Please specify the number, whether they are pairs, if they are striped, hole-free, washed, etc. (Picture accompaniment would also be a plus!)

 

[NattyBoo]

To answer multiple PMs at once: There are NO CREASES, only minor wear in multiple places, some flocking on the very edges of the corners, but very nice coloring and centering. I'd say it's better than set filler material. There are a heck of a lot worse out there... If the only thing separating you from a 71 Nolan Ryan in VG+ condition is beating out a pile of tube socks, you have to ask yourself- Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

I'd say it's a 4.5 grade.

I think the grade would be lower then this, if PSA a 2, if bvg probably even less, the surface and edges would not allow that card to be over a 2.

I'll play along though and offer a 100 pack of team bags.

Here's a 3 grade if your interested in comparing.

 

[NattyBoo]

The creasing, paper loss, and color on that one all seem worse to me. Socks still in the lead...

 

[NattyBoo]

I see what you are saying, but this pitiful 5 makes me think mine can't possibly be a 2 or 3

[NattyBoo]

Of the 2 offers, the tube socks have it so far!

I say get it BVG graded, if it is 4 or higher, i'll reimburse your S&H + grading fee and buy you a brand new bag of socks with you keeping the card. If it is sub 4 i get the card for my 100 team bags.

Do you really trust your grade? If you do you got nothing to lose. :drink:

 

[NattyBoo]

I have no clue whay anyone gets sub 8's graded unless you're just wanting something authenticated... unless maybe it's a 33 Goudey Ruth or DiMaggio or a T-206 or a 1909 American Caramel

 

[NattyBoo]

This one may be headed for...

my sock drawer!

 

[redbird8]

20 toploaders

A third offer! BTW, what point are the TL's? are they new? what brand? are they standard or vintage size? are they ROOKIE or plain? gold script or white (if rookie)? are they PVC-free? rigid or semi-rigid?
