Harper Bowman Autograph Sales, One Month After Release

I've been keeping track of his sales for the past month, both base and parallel, as they ended on eBay.

Not included are graded versions.

I only kept track of redemptions in Blue parallels, not the base.

Enjoy.

How should I know? I just report the sales.

Guessing you were the winner.

Moral of the story? WAIT.

Haha at the random buys that were 2.5 times what the going rate was..

The guy that sold that $240 card was scamming members out of $$$

All the high end cards he was selling were won at the $240 price range.. So he wouldn't have to get Signature Confirmation and probably shipped empty packages that showed they were delivered..

There was a thread about that seller..

Nah, I'm the furthest thing from a prospecter you can imagine. My interest in Harper is limited to trading any one his cards I pull for stuff I actually care about. Don't use ebay anyways so even if I was gonna go nuts over this kid I'd have to find a different way to do it.

Didn't realize they had dropped so much.

This was mine:
$749.00 5/23/2011

Very happy considering the sales that surrounded it. Mine did have a plus auto though, hope the guy that bought it got a 9.5/10 auto out of it.

thanks for sharing JP. Good work and research...

Hmmmm...should we all start buying now since prices are low? DONT TOUCH THE NEXT HARPER BOWMAN AUTO :mrgreen: ITS MINE!!

I would hate to have the card serial #d to 32. Looks like that guy took a $600 loss from a non paying bidder or someone that schilled his own auction. I'm assuming it was the same seller.

Very cool.

Just goes to show that unless something is extremely low #d or a 1/1, just wait and the prices will plummet.

Thats pretty amazing that in less than a month the card goes from selling in the $7-800's all the way down to the $300's.

If you ever pull a "hot card" at or near release date get that thing on Ebay fast. I guess it make sense though, the people who really wanted the card bought it pretty much right away, so every Harper that sold near release you were basically losing one serious bidder for the card.

I would also imagine that auto quality had a lot to do with the bidding as well, especially early on with the people that "couldn't live without the card" and had to get it right away.


Would be interesting to compare this list with what the Strasburgs did last year in the first month.

Time to start ripping bowman! LOL

also,
Depends if the winners keep buying once they win the card, or they are satisfied with one and are out of the next bidding war...

Do we think prices will keep plummeting for the foreseeable future? I would think supply would be getting lower at this point, which would keep the price relatively stable.

4/5 reds but only 63/250 blue?

Two things that I wonder about....

When Bowman Chrome releases, what do you think it will do to the price of the Bowman autos?

Also, when Bowman Chrome Autos are live what will they start out at and what will they settle in at?

I think the same will happen to the Bowman autos that happened to the Strasburg Bowman autos. But this time Harper's Chromes will come out stronger due to Strasburg being on the shelf when Chrome hit. I see the Harper being a $800-900 impulse first on ebay sorta thing then settling down in the $450-575 range (got that idea from JP) . Will be a strong card. But what do I know, I'm just a case worker...
