Description
Features San Francisco Giants shortstop Jose Uribe in a classic fielding crouch. This card features the iconic 1990 Fleer 'ribbon' design with a yellow border and red Fleer '90 logo in the top left corner.
Key Features
This card gained notoriety in the mid-2010s due to 'meme' listings on eBay where sellers listed it for thousands of dollars as a joke or money-laundering attempt. There are no actual rare errors on the standard card; it is a common base card from the 'Junk Wax' era.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. This card is from a mass-produced era with millions of copies; it is virtually never counterfeited because the cost to produce a fake exceeds the card's value.
Flaws to Note
Significant centering issues (occurs frequently in this set). The bottom border is noticeably thinner than the top. White borders on the reverse are susceptible to minor aging/toning.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Best sold as part of a bulk Giants team set or a complete 1990 Fleer set on eBay or Mercari. Not worth the individual shipping costs to sell solo.
Selling Tips
Do not be fooled by high listing prices for this card online; those are 'trick' listings. To maximize value, include it in a lot with other 1990s stars. Use standard envelope shipping ($0.60-$1.00) if selling individually to keep costs lower than the card value.
