Panini (Portugal) - Futebol 2002-2003 (02) - 306 - Cristiano Ronaldo - $65,000

396 stickers

The sticker on the left sold last week for $65,000. The sticker on the right is currently listed at $49,999.99. The first sticker scores 10's on Centering, Edges and Corners. The only way that this sticker has achieved those scores is because it has been trimmed. The white border is far too narrow, which is proof that the sticker has been trimmed, and should make it worthless. The sticker on the right has not been trimmed and this is how an untrimmed sticker should look.
At least Beckett has graded it as a 2002-2003 sticker, whereas PSA has labelled it as a 2002 issue.

306.  Cristiano Ronaldo (Sporting Lisbon)

  1. Shows how much these supposed "experts" know about their own subject. These people are ruining this hobby and encouraging the manufacturers to produce more "desirable" rubbish instead of concentrating on the core product.

    2. Obviously a trimmed sticker. I reported the seller. I guess the grading from Beckett is fake as well. Seen more of them on Ebay

  2. Too many people are just buying the grade and not the card/sticker.
