I'll never understand why these ALWAYS skyrocket (last year's didn't but they REALLY sucked). Even if you busted a case, you are still going to get hosed....even if you hit a $1000 card. Hard to imagine if you hit a $1000 card that the rest of the case (assuming no other big hits) is going to...
Sometimes I do know what i'm talking about. LOL.
I figured "a great price" as far as picking it up was sub 1K (I think there was too much risk on the flip at anything over that).
Honestly, if the piece didn't have the autograph on it, it would be about an $800 piece. The numbering and the...
Why are they hyping this up 6 months in advance? So much can, and does change. Obviously Chrome is a pretty steady product, but why get people hyped up for a release thats 6+ months away?
It's two fold. There's the gotta have it now crowd AND the college collectors. As soon as the draft is over, people scramble to find cards of the next IT player or their franchise QB. They don't necessarily want to wait 2-3 more months for those players to have their first NFL licensed/uni cards.
Its just one of the dangers of the job. I have sold tons of cases of Bowman Chrome autos and NEVER had this happen once though. Must just be bad luck. I just always put that the card is in NRMT or better condition. When people complain I ask them if they can verify the card is worse than...
Wait wait wait, you're going to get the card back before you refund him.....right?
You do realize that eBay can't force you to eat the $45 without you getting your card back right?
With Sam, I am glad he got drafted and is getting his shot. Especially with the "home town" team. About as accepting of an atmosphere that he could have hoped for.
I was more concerned that his sexuality was going to cost him his SHOT, not a spot on the team. If he's a legit locker room...
I am biased about Ricardo Allen being a Purdue fan, but he's a great fit for the Falcons as a nickle corner. Even though he's small, he's quick and super physical. He tackles his ass off and will be great on slot guys. He ended up playing MLB for us last year so his lack of pass defense #s...
Also, is it Ironic that a Carr sits atop the best QBs available with the Texans picking? I think so.
Will this one turn out to be at least serviceable, unlike his brother?
That would help a lot of things. Doubt it happens though. most likely it will be the enemy colored fastlands or enemy colored "comes into play untapped if you already control a this or this" land
Both of these have been super underrated in eternal formats.
I don't think the Bortles pick was a reach. Best QB in the draft. His game is so complete. He's a great passer and might even be better on his feet than Manziel.
Right. In a different year, its all fine and well...but this year they actually have to get better through the draft. No reason to trade up to 1 and get rid of your 1st, 2nd and more and potentially a 10-20th pick next year when you have just as dire needs that can be more than adequately...
The Cowboys do need an outside rusher with Ware bolting for the Broncs. Sam's definitely not a down lineman in the NFL, but Anthony Spencer on the other side of him there in Dallas has a very similar pedigree as him....all first team in his conference with great tackle numbers who was...
