Some of the Josh Johnson prices are going goofy. Some go for maddeningly cheap amounts and others have been going for stunning amounts. The only things I didn't list below are a six auto out of '06 Ultimate w/Hamels, Lester, Carmona, Papelbon & Weaver that didn't include "Josh Johnson" in the title ($104) and a '06 Ultimate Quad auto w/Adam Wainwright, Taylor Buchholz and Brian Bannister /25 that only had Adam Wainwright in the title ($22.50)

Here are a couple of the auctions that are absolutely nuts:

And one current auction, not mine, that rolls off tonight:

And here's some of the stuff I've gotten recently, which I think are at some solid prices:

To be fair, the ones you got for a good price were before his latest 3 starts in which he pitched "alright". I think the Topps Chrome prices that you say are "nuts" are actually decent. $15 for a "RC" autograph of one of the Top 5 pitchers in the game this season doesn't seem that crazy to me. You should be happy that your guy is getting some recognition! :D

I have done that..but not smoked. Every time I went to Brick Oven Pizza Co. I always ended up at WalMart buying MacGyver and Scooby Doo DVD's.

One night back in 05, I blacked out and bought every Topps Chrome and Bowman Sterling Jay Bruce Auto that was less than a $60 BIN. They were going for $30-40 at the time so I bought like 25 cards at way higher prices than current market. Ended up loving the $3k in profit when he debuted.

True, GA, but still. $35 for a Sweet Spot '06 /100, which, the only other time his stuff spiked like this was back in early '09, when he beat the Nats in the second game of the year and then outdueled Johan on a Sunday TBS game. Then his stuff went bonkers, but, it's seemingly a steady incline.

Plus, the '06 UD Future Stars auto was purchased a few days ago, when all this goofiness was in full effect :?

Oh, and I don't want too much recognition, because then I won't be able to afford him, or hoard anymore :cry:

I've noticed some odd James Shields and Rays sales also. Seems like auctions are going a bit random lately - sometimes up to double the regular prices. I did really well on a Garza auto last week. It sold for over double the going rate. Odd.

This is more than reasonable or is it because its being sold by beckett?

It's been up for more than a year at this price and not once has it sold ...[/quote:51csqqul]
I'm guessing you don't prospect? This is good and bad for you and your collection. Josh Johnson is getting some hobby love. Bad for you because if you keep buying prices will be going up but please don't whine about it lol!

I am a marlins fan myself and have been asking myself why and when he will get some hobby love. I am glad a fish other than a prospect is getting some love!

I knew at some point his stuff would start jumping. I just didn't think it'd go from a slight incline to the Himilaya's in a matter of weeks ...

And, I do prospect. Saw the same thing w/Vanegas prices before the draft. Now they've fallen back to early May levels.
