Big thanks to [MENTION=12548]psj[/MENTION] for turning me on to this card, I had no idea it existed until he told me about it. Did some searching that night and came across this, for a very nice price. I'm not a fan of the GU memorabilia aspect of it but since it's his only Yankees auto, I had to add it!
Now here we really do have some ultra rare cards, the Alexander I don't recall ever seeing up for auction but the Goodman I do remember... And I remember it going for a pretty penny. Seeing how high it went made me think I would probably never own a copy... Until around Xmas time when I did a search for Yankees autos and came across these...
Seller had it with a BIN/OBO of $349 each. I'm like, that can't be right, I remember the Goodman /100 going for over $800. And the Alexander at /50, for the same price, no way!! I thought about it for probably less than a minute, had to act fast before the BIN was hit! Offered $250, hey, why not. Auto declined. $275, again, why not. Auto declined. Then offered $300. If he didn't accept that I more than likely would've hit the BIN... BUT, auto accepted!! I could not believe it! So I quickly offered $300 on the other one, auto accepted and I sat there in shock. Two huge adds for me for less than what one last sold for. I halfway didn't expect the seller to honor the sale, but he did.
He also had the Cashman for the same price. I skipped on that one because I just couldn't swing all 3 cards. I figure Cashman has other autos out there plus I didn't think it was worth that much. Boy was I wrong when I tried to bid on another copy today and it sold for $400!! A couple of days after I won the Goodman and Alexander I checked on his Cashman and he raised his price to $599! I made an offer of $300 on it today and guess what!! Auto decline... LOL.
Hahah, u #&#&$*#&, I still need that card!! Just kidding, I thunk/pray they'll make more Castro gu/auto cards of him as a yankee. Beautiful card Eddie
Wooow, huge pickups man!!!. The Cashman from this set just ended yesterday at like $130
