Opinions Requested - 2010 Elite Extra Edition Set

bcubs · Jul 3, 2013

Looking for some opinions on a selling situation. I have a complete set of 2010 Elite Extra Edition, both the regular red autos and the franchise futures autos. There could only be 35 of these potentially completed, since the Pamela Anderson auto is numbered to 35. I'm pretty proud of the accomplishment since so many of the autos are hard to find being numbered to 99 or 149, and I like possibly being the only person with such a set. Having said that, with so many of these cards up in value I'm thinking of breaking it up to sell and trying to pick them back up when they go on the downturn. My worry is though that at some point they might be really tough to find if they drop as they go into PC's. Any thoughts?

Sets don't hold value. That's just not the way the hobby is any longer.

You have the right idea idea. Sell high and buy low. If you like the chase I would do it. Just be ready for some of the cards being higher in price.

This really is the whole discussion. You already have the (difficult) set and doing it all over again will only get more difficult. You can make the money now, use it on something else, then rebuild the EEE at your leisure.

I don't see the point of rebuilding.
Either sell it all and move on to other things or keep it all.

Agreed.

Unless you really LOVE the set and absolutely have to sell because you're completely desperate for cash, you're not going to enjoy putting it together the second time around.
