First off hello and welcome. The real question is are you an AP fan or are you trying to flip it? The card is hot no doubt. IMO backs are flash in the pan types. Everyone is looking for the next Emmitt or Payton. My advice strike while the iron is hot if your looking for top dollar. If you collect AP then stash it away for another day.

sportster2827 · 02-05-2010, 11:46 PM

Sell it now. If it were from 2007, then you could sit on it.

achilles01987 · 02-06-2010, 10:05 AM

Since it's 09 I'd sell it.

dustin9900 · 02-06-2010, 10:10 AM

ok throw the beckett away, then go from there. You will not get 175 for that card unfortunately....however a decent 100 125 maybe and be happy. Ebay is an unfortunate better price guide than beckett, because it's what people are actually paying not what beckett dreams we should get for anything. but yeah flip it on get another decent box and have fun. Unless you collect AP of course..

willisguy52 · 02-06-2010, 06:44 PM

Last one sold on ebay for only $104.00 take away ebay fees your only getting $90 for an AP auto... HOLD ONTO IT!

Just my advice...

Great looking card. I have two of the same ones but they are of the Red Ref Autos /5

If you can trade it for one a nice Montana or a Rice I would. You can always get another AP auto.

Give you an example the bulk of a deal I made was comprised of an AP Rookie Auto (R&S). I was getting a Johnny Unitas UD Pros/Prospects GU/Auto out of it. Not too many U autos come floating along.

marino5084 · 02-06-2010, 10:42 PM

I have a SportKings Montana Silver on card auto.

willisguy52 · 02-06-2010, 10:43 PM

That's why I'm thinking trade.I mean it is still ap.do you think noone will trade for a rice or montana?ian the u auto must be nice.nevered pulled one and I bust a lot of wax lol

DavidShep88 · 02-06-2010, 11:03 PM

I think you could get something sweet out of that... Just make sure you dont just settle for the first one that comes along... I have done that before and kicked myself for it.

willisguy52 · 02-06-2010, 11:11 PM

Lol no I won't do that I already have autos of all my stars so if I don't like the offer ill keep it.like I said its a ap auto I hold it for awhile if need be
