Sports Illustrated Blog # 139 on Our Way to 200 – SI Jordan’s are a Definite BUY.
Welcome to my Sports Illustrated/TIME magazine blog – Your collector’s guide to the latest hobby updates and insight into what’s trending now. I think it’s important to establish an update on the status of the Jordan SI CGC grading populations. The reason to keep things in real time is to insure you have the most updated information possible when making buying/selling decisions. Jordan SI’s are some of the most coveted mags in the hobby, but they are also some of the most volatile with regard to price. Below I have included a spreadsheet (See my Facebook page for spreadsheet) which illustrates the year and SI volume number, the title, the CGC census to date and the grade/POP of the next grade and POP. Use this spreadsheet for reference but remember that it changes daily and without notice. Given the historical patterns of collectibles buyers, anything Jordan will increase, especially the highest graded items. But the good news is, Jordan stuff is still reasonably priced even though it is in the highest demand. I am a big Jordan endorser and recommend a BUY on all reasonably priced issues – SI, SPORT and definitely Street & Smith, because in my opinion, they are still way undervalued. This is one of those hobby events that makes a whole lot of sense, in my opinion. Thanks for your continued support in making our hobby the next big event. I hope you are enjoying the reads on the history of SI, SPORT, and BASEBALL magazines as well as an insight into relevant magazine collecting. Great collecting to you in our second century of blogs and best fortunes with Sports Illustrated/SPORT/BASEBALL magazines.
