I just won this
2010 Bowman Chrome Stephen Strasburg Gold Refractor Auto Autograph Rookie 25/50 | eBay

Last one
2010 Bowman Chrome Stephen Strasburg Gold ref auto /50 | eBay

Last one BGS 9.5/10 got almost $900. I may grade and flip

Fandruw25 · Sep 19, 2011

Good luck, obviously you won it at auction so it may go lower...grade and if it doesn't meet min (of 9.5 I assume) will you tell potential bidders or list as mint?

mredsox89 · Sep 19, 2011

The last one went for $539

Hard to have a steal when its titled correctly and up at auction. Got roughly the going rate

Good luck grading though

Wow didn't even notice. Thanks for that. Looks like not a steal after all. But i saw in your sig youre interested in USA cards. I have a few nice ones. if interested Please pm me

Yeah, just because one has gone higher in the past doesn't make it the going rate. Steals usually require poor titles or mistaken BINs... looks like the prices just took a dip. Maybe it'll go back up for you.

I'm hoping.. I thought it was a steal until I saw Mredsox's post. But he's doing real good after his injury so they should go up

At least you got some good eBay bucks with the purchase.

Is that a crease or fold in the center of the top boarder or is it the penny sleeve?I wouldn't bother with grading.It look to OC.Hopefully it is just the scan.For that money I personally would have bought the Bowman Auto.

PS not trying to sound like a downer.Just giving my 2 cents which aren't worth ****

It's the penny sleeve. I asked the seller about the surface and edges and corners. This purchase was just kind of impulse lol. But it may not be THAT off center to grade. This one still got 9.5

Tough grade that card. GL Mike

ThoseBackPages · Sep 20, 2011

always have to wonder why a card that old is not graded.

at least you can return it if it doesnt meet your expectations

Messier2 · Sep 20, 2011

I find it hilarious (almost comical) of people posting "steal" threads only to not do their research and pay the close to or the going rate for a card and calling it a "steal"!

Mike, you're a good guy but c'mon it would have been a steal if you got it for $200...not over $500 going into the off-season! :benson:

Well, hope you enjoy the card and it grades well!

Also, PEOPLE if you have a REAL STEAL, PLEASE don't post it until you have the card in-hand...really...it's not hard to wait a bit. I know you're excited and ready to share it with the world but control yourself!

There are people who don't care for grading. I know many myself and even though I grade once in a while it is for protection not for gem cards. To me it's a waste of money and space to grade non rookies where some want their whole collection graded. Different strokes for different folks.

for this kind of card and selling on eBay, graded is always you best bet against chargeback

The "people who dont care for grading" and who deal in volatile cards like this are fools for
leaving money on the table, unless of course, they know there is something wrong with the card,
and it wouldnt grade well.

True but not all "pack fresh cards" will grade high enough to be worth the time and money. I have sold hundreds of modern cards with no issues, well except one that was lost at his job. :benson:

i totally agree with this. BUT then the seller of such cards has to say just that in the listing as protection for themselves when it comes to buyers crying to eBay, wanting their money back.

Why do people even buy pitchers with a history of arm trouble...its ways too risky.
