Its Official, the New Fleer E-X Basketball is a Hit!
The June Version of Beckett Basketball Monthly Lists 2006/2007 Fleer E-X as the Biggest Player in June
Carlsbad, CA (June 4, 2007) It seems that collectors and dealers alike are very happy with the return of Fleer E-X Basketball this year. This brand has been a staple in the basketball market in years prior and this years set is earning the brand significant accolades.
In the June publication of Beckett Basketball Monthly, Fleer E-X topped the charts as the number 1 biggest player in the basketball card market this month. The publication stated, E-X announced its return with authority. Especially popular are the on-card autographs, the Essential Credentials parallels and the Jambalaya insert that features greats such as Michael Jordan and Bill Russell.
Fleer E-X also owned Becketts Hot List for singles in June with three of the top four cards from the set. The regular Michael Jordan card #4 checks in at number four on the list. The Tyrus Thomas Autograph Rookie card numbered to 199 is listed as number three. While the number one basketball card for the month according to the Beckett Hot List is the Brandon Roy Autograph Rookie card numbered to 199.
For collectors who have not added those must have cards to their sets, they better hurry. According to most retailers it will not be as easy to find for much longer. Cecil Laborde of Jasons Cards in Baton Rouge, LA, We completely sold through our allotment. The demand was much higher than we thought. Ive re-ordered Fleer E-X several times now through distributors to keep up with requests we continue to receive.
