So looks like it is up to NY for a huge increase, hobby-wise.
I think the longer and louder the negotiations go, the more press Tex gets, and the more his cards go up.coltsfan23 said:Topnotchsy said:Ehhh, I'll believe it when he signs elsewhere.

I sure hope so!! The Red Sox keep saying that they will base it off of the econ and this and that, but I'm hoping it's not true.
I'm curious to see just how long negotiations can take for Tex.
Last auction got $77, but before that one that started at $100 got a bid, so who knows where it will head. Of course if he gets to Boston or NY and gets hot, his name could be all over the place.cgilmo said:my selling point for the spx is $110
Would be a nice holiday gift to hobbiests if he would up in NY or Boston.Bosox3 said:negotiations will only go on for a few more days.
Tex has said from day 1 that He wants to know where he's going by Christmas.

That is sweet! Move it once he goes to NY!
I love being right (Not that this was something incredibly brilliant, but it definitely was a money-maker for those who caught on and bought at the end of last season, and after the season.Topnotchsy said:Last season at this time, with the rumors swirling about Johan Santana, prices on his cards jumped significantly. This season we have not seem similar jumps during the time before a deal was struck, but in the cases of Sabathia and Burnett, huge increases have been realized after the signing. With the Yanks in the running for Tex (along with Boston) how what effects will we see on the RC Auto's of a young star who will finally (likely) be in the spotlight?
Personally I see some increases before any deal, and if he comes to NY or Boston, it could be big.

Just checked for myself, and prices on some cards have gone up in the last couple days. They are still all selling really strong.coltsfan23 said:Woot! I have 2 Tex autos; the SPX and a dual Reflections! I just got internet after a week, so I hope I'm not late!
I know I should be mad as a Red Sox fan, but as an investor first, it's awesome!

Yep. I hope mine sell well.
