A junk wax era baseball card worth $200,000?!? Comparing PSA 10 values of Derek Jeter rookie cards!

Спорт

Derek Jeter had more than a dozen rookie cards released in 1993, the heart of the junk wax era, and the SP from that year has an insanely low gem mint rate with PSA, and last sold for more than $200,000! What are the other Jeter rookies worth, and how frequently do they gem?

    JWH Love the production value of this video- especially the strategically placed visual aids- shades of Chris Sewall! Hats off to Score’s 2003 quality control efforts for producing all those tens. If only Jeter was as flamboyant and fiery as Jack Morris- right? Lol

    I never used to like him but what changed my mind was the mere fact that a couple people I used to know randomly ran into him back when he was still playing. They both said he was exceptionally nice to them. One person saw Jeter and A Rod at a bar. He just wanted to say hi and according to him both of them were super nice and engaged him in a conversation. Like those guys are not, that was still pretty descent of them.

    I remember a game. the Yankees had a guy on 1st. Jeter hit a ball on the ground - he was out, and the player on 1st went to 2nd. the next player up hit a long fly ball and the runner on 2nd scored - the Yankees won 1 to 0 - he was boring, but a winner. If Jeter had played in a small market, his greatness may not have been so widely heralted. The 1993 SP are really nice

    I have a pretty decent raw copy of the '93 SP Jeter. I think I bought it for $50 or so back in '98 or '99? I'm also one of the few people that probably thinks Jeter is UNDERRATED. He's the last truly great shortstop we've had! Played his entire 20 year career at short, not moving to 3rd, outfield, etc. 3,400 hits! 14x All Star/5 Gold Gloves! And Postseason? 158 Games / 200 hits / 20 HRs / .308 BA

    I recently purchased a 1993 Topps Baseball Series 1 & 2 complete set unopened for $150 Canadian. My question is why would the seller, knowing that Derek Jeter's Rookie card graded PSA 10 goes for about $350. I think there's a good chance it's in mint gem condition which is why I bought it. The set also come with 10 Topps Gold cards and the Jeter could be quite valuable if it's in there. Was this a good buy?

    As a whole, no! Can’t be compared to junk wax. 90s didn’t have serialized cards, autos, 1/1 and RPAs. I don’t know why people even compare. Not even close to the same. Not too mention all the different types of sets out there too collect. There is a limit to how many autos a player can sign. Yes they can sign a lot but not nearly as many as the cards they printed in the 90s. Buy autos, ssp, rpa, low serial numbers, rare inserts. They will always have a value. Base cards, they can 100% be compared to 90s cards. 90s cards are like todays base set cards. Junk wax.

    Jeter is very overrated as a player, and his cards are insanely overvalued. He was definitely an above average hitter, but not outstanding. 310 lifetime BA is good but not hall of fame worthy on its own. Defensively he was one of the worst shortstops to play in the last 30 years. Hall of fame worthy? Maybe, or maybe not. If you removed his popularity and the yankees from the equation it would have been close but no way he would have been a 1st ballot shoe in. Put him on the padres instead and with his stats he would have struggled to make it into the hof.
