Gotta admit, I'm disappointed with the resale value of some of these cards on ebay. For a super premium golf product, I see a LOT of $0.99 - $2.00 autos. If you don't hit one of the big names, you're screwed... Makes me nervous to open my boxes tomorrow.

I have a card on ebay right now (the one in my sig) that currently has well over 100 watchers. I have rarely heard of auctions with more watchers than that so I was interested how many watchers was the most you have ever had on an eBay auction that you listed?

It's really exciting, and I definitely feel like paying the extra $20 for featured listing (where the card shows up at the top of the search and purple) was worth it.

Most of the golfers had autographs in Metal... and some are in UD SP . That's why I sold my Arnold Palmer /25. Metal was a fun rip... just too many autographs for some of these golfers. Supply by far out numbers the demand.

Tell me about it.
I pulled a Goosen, Sorenstam, and & Betsy King. Relatively well known players, I'll be lucky to get $30 back. I really need to stay away from Leaf, terrible luck and the resale just isn't there.

I'll be ripping pro-wrestling just because they will all be PC cards. Other than that though, I agree. The resell value just isn't there.

I dont think this (reslae value) is a fair statement.
I am willing to wager that 5 cases of Ultimate Golf gives a greater % return than 5 cases UD SPA Golf....
Open a box of SPA and post who your 3 autos are... ;-)

Now, on the luck front, that is outta my control.

This is somewhat true, although I think Norman and Dufner are exceptional values at current pricing... BG

Agreed that it is still a better value than UD. But then again, its freaking UD! Failure is expected from those ass clowns. Anyone who buys UD products these days is begging for kick to the ******.

Brian, you need to secure Bo Van Pelt. Most Top 10s on the tour this year and just won again this week. I think he's primed for a major in the next year. I'm pretty biased of course.

I would be nuts to buy one more box of either product.
In regards to the SPA, I pulled Lincicome, Curtis, and Oosthuisen (sp)
If I had to choose I would go with the SPA, just at the chance to hit one of the parade of stars autos or Tiger.

Golf increases of major winners are insane. When Webb Simpson won the US Open, his Leaf Metal Prismatic went from $4 to $50 in seconds.

Dam if some of these are going that cheap gonna have to pick up some.
Cards look great. Inscriptions, Golden Bear, Norman,. Some nice hits in it. I'd love a Great White auto at some point.
Doesn't someone in Tigers family have auto in it that is up supposed to be good.

You can get a Great White auto by requesting one through his website. They are pretty sweet

The cards are nice looking (nice design, on-card auto) but why do they need to be so thick? Thicker than normal stock is fine, but these things are like sweetspot autos. Does that add anything? They are a pain in the ass to store.
