Value on 2004 Sweet Spot Ichiro Auto -Purchased-

Shi Guy · Jan 19, 2011

Sorry to clutter up the boards with a "asking for value post" but I'm having a hard time finding the SV for this particular card. There are a couple listed on ebay; one for $600 BIN/OBO and one from the 2002 set listed at $650 BIN/OBO. I wasn't able to find any in the recently completed list. I have an opportunity to pick this card up and would really appreciate the help. Thanks guys!

Can you show me the link? Or is the card blue bordered?

i think you r looking at the 03 sweet spot?

for the 04 sweet spot, his last certified auto, those have ended between 225-300+ in the last year or so.

it's available to me through a private party so I don't have a link, but it looks like the one in this auction:

I believe Mill Creek or something like that had him under contract for a while.I am not sure if they still do.

They've got a ton of signed Ichiro items, and I don't see him on their post 2004 list of past signers, so it sounds like he hasn't been out in quite awhile.

So it sounds like, for the $160 that this is available to me for, I should jump on it?

One exactly like that went unsold for $250 for a while, then finally sold. $600 is way too much.

Definitely! You are getting a bargain as long as the conditions of the card is in great shape...

Shi Guy · Jan 19, 2011

Re: Value on 2004 Sweet Spot Ichiro Auto

The only noticeable problem I could find with the card was the silver on the lower right had flaked off a bit, much like the one seen in the auction. From what I've been told this is a common issue with '04 Sweet Spot.

Re: Value on 2004 Sweet Spot Ichiro Auto

Probably Ichiro's most common auto, but still rare. I haven't watched them in a while, but a year-or-so ago they sold consistently for around $200.

Buy that bad boy and put the scan up right here!

madbull34 · Jan 19, 2011

Re: Value on 2004 Sweet Spot Ichiro Auto

They go for around $200 ~ $300 depending on condition. I'd jump all over it for $160. My copy cost $224.

Re: Value on 2004 Sweet Spot Ichiro Auto

I hit the shop and pulled the trigger. $175 after tax.

For some reason my scanner is blurring the auto a bit. I think it's just the plastic of the case it's in.

Zan · Jan 19, 2011

Love the card, even with the chipping. Good price

I pulled about 3 of those back a few years when I was ripping Sweet Spot.. I was selling them $250 to $300..

Alot of those had chiping issues.. there are some that are numbered low to /45 if I remember..

Solid pickup..

tonsofcommons · Jan 19, 2011

I had the opportunity to pick up a box of 04 Sweet Spot at wal mart back in 05 and passed.

A guy I know bought it and pulled the red/blue stitching one /25. I was sick!

madbull34 · Jan 19, 2011

Glad you picked it up. Great price too.

Halonut · Jan 19, 2011

nice p/u...btw, the flaw is not chipping, it is more oxidation. i have a few from 2004 sweet spot which didn't have it when i purchased them but it built up over time.
