I'm trying to figure out whether or not grading low end cards is worthwhile. By low end, I'm referring to ~$10 chrome autos or color parallel non autos. I ask because I have several Raimel Tapia autos I never found time to clean till around now. I don't think grading can be had for less than...
Now that 2013 is over, feel free to share your best and worst investments for the year. How you define which investments to include is up to you.
Best:
My best investment for 2013 was Kris Bryant. I expected him to have a very big college season. However, it seems that few realize how epic...
So after reading Bob Loblaw's thread on taxes a while ago:

Pretty much all of us here have experience buying and selling prospect singles. So I'd like to get some opinions as to where you struggle and would like to get better in prospecting.
My biggest challenge is buying cards of lower tiered players for an upcoming draft [USAs]. I recently bought...
I'm frustrated so I simply want to vent. But this makes no sense at all to me. I got offers of ~100 for it and simply ignored them because I found them insulting. Subscribing to a store for reduced auction FVFs before the fee increase has been a poor decision for me thus far...
Looks like all FVFs will now be a staggering 10%. How much longer will we let this last? Here's the email:

I just noticed that the college baseball season begins today. While the 2013 Draft may be considered weak, there is still plenty of talent and cards to keep an eye on in the college ranks. Here is my list of those players and cards:
1. Mark Appel RHP Stanford
Appel may have the best pure...
These cards have been very difficult to buy. With Panini owning the USA license, nobody is busting the product! :mad: I don't believe I've seen 10% of the print run for any card numbered 25 and up on ebay. This means that I've had on average of 2 chances to buy any given player's Red auto /25...
In regards to all the Austin Meadows talk lately, here is the MLB Network segment on the 2013 MLB Draft for those who want to see it. Surprisingly, Meadows isn't one of the three players featured, but is mentioned as potentially the top high school prospect towards the end...
So after buying Leaf Metal and Valiant singles last year, I decided that this year I would ignore both sets. I have built a sizable BDP stash and as the cards have dried up, I picked up a Valiant Orange auto off Beckett for just under ebay price with combined shipping. Or so I thought. The...
Just thought I'd throw this on here:

Where it really gets interesting is the back. There's an unsigned version of this card and the back looks...
I have this Rosario available. Subgrades are all 9 or better. Looking for other Bowman Chrome top prospects and would consider trading for high end 90s inserts or HOF GU (no Topps for HOF GU). Can trade for more than one card. Would also sell for $225 dlvd. Pm is best. Thanks.
Please be sure to PM as I will likely not see posts. I will likely not get back until late night tomorrow. Prices are dlvd.
Fernandez Chrome (no scan but very clean) $20
Tyler austin elite /811 $22
Matt Olson Blues /99 $20 each
MIKE ZUNINO!!!
About time the guy got some love. I don't know what more anyone can want from a guy who hits for both average and power and plays excellent defense at the game's most demanding position.
He also happens to have only one card. I can't help but to wonder if this is the reason he...
Here's a list of stuff I'm looking to move. Prices are generally a tad below ebay if data is available. Feel free to ask for scans and prices or make offers.

These card have steadily climbed, and approximately doubled, over the past week. However, this is one spike that really bewilders me. Not including today, he's hitting .368 w/ no extra base hits, 2 walks, 1 so, and 2 sbs in 5 games. Projected top hitter in the draft, maybe?
I've been contemplating whether opening an ebay store is worthwhile to increase my profits, mainly in selling prospect cards. I easily meet the requirements to be a top rated seller and most of these sales are using free listings auction style. I'm reluctant to list items using bin/bo for 50...
And this time, I got ripped off as well... for six bucks!!! :evil:
