How this list was built. Ripbin tracks every Magic Johnson card in our catalog and this list is the 8 key cards ranked by our market data: the PSA 10 median asking price on eBay first, then raw, weighted by the number of listings seen. Raw, PSA 10, PSA 9 and BGS 9.5 figures are medians of current eBay asking prices for that exact card and parallel, refreshed daily; the charts are our monthly medians. Prices move — treat them as a guide, and check the exact card number and serial number before you pay a premium.
