FT: Cam Newton Contenders! TWO OF THEM!
Ok, so my Cam Newton Contenders finally came back from BGS... 8.5's w/ 10 Autos. A raw Cam Contenders is in the mid 300's... so what type of pricing should I put on them? Looking at some other previous Contenders from rookie QBs, a 8.5 on avg. is 20% more than a raw NM-MT+. I'm thinking maybe low 400s for these?
Anyways, both are up for trade...come strong though...WILL CHECK BUCKETS.
and finally the photos:

Um, the card is from 2011, I think it's reasonable to assume a card should be mint. I definitely don't think any premium is in order, let alone 20%. I mean, honestly, when they came back an 8.5, did you you Juno for joy at the grade or bristle a bit? If it doesn't pass the bristle test, its probably not a premium involved. I'd say book value. Nice cards, congrats.

RE: FT: Cam Newton Contenders! TWO OF THEM!
Thanks for the opinions all... just find it funny that two weeks ago someone was offering $450 in trade value on it (raw would = 8.5), and now that's it's officially graded 8.5 they are backing down to BV. Ha ha ha... oh well, still will see what I can get for it.
