Kevin Durant National Treasures Auto Value Question

[murrke03]

Pulled this in a box of Best of Basketball and am trying to put a sell value on it.

BGS Authentic Auto 9 and its /10.

thanks for the input

Where are you getting these grades from? I thought authentic holder, just slabs the card as legit.

What is it numbered? Also it's odd they didn't grade it which could hurt the value, usually that means the condition isn't very good?

[murrke03]

the auto grade is on the back. thats what i mean by grade 9.

the card is /10.

i am under the impression that leaf did a lot of just straight 'authentic' grading for their best of basketball cases. i dont know if it had anything to do with the actual grade the card would have received because it doesn't look like that had any problem putting bgs 8.5 and such so i don't necessarily think they were trying to 'hide' the condition and grades

[lennox.p]

all cards that leaf bought raw and sent to beckett for grading and get a grade under bgs 9 carry the blue authentic label.

so are all the cards that are graded under bgs 9 in the best of basketball product graded before they got to them for best of basketball?

theres a lot of them to believe that leaf went out and bought a lot of bgs 8.5 and below to insert into their boxes. no?


and just wondering where you heard that from?

[murrke03]

so any idea on value?

sorry 8.5 was the minimum for autographed cards, all under 8.5 have a blue label.

they buy a lot raw cards, mostly new stuff and send them to beckett for grading with the 8.5 minimum.

all the cards they buy graded will keep the grade like they were bought.

i sold them card/s and i saw what they bought. also saw a lot of breaks, you can see a clear line how they proceed.

here is a nice example
