A Man-valentine just for you:

Any reason to grade a rare card, I mean, is the premium really worth the risk of letting the BGS man-paws ****** the thing? Especially when I have no intentions of moving it any time in the next century?

my inner paris says... that's hot!

I'm 99% positive Incline Investments was the one arguing that selling Longoria during the playoffs was the wrong time to be selling. Looks like he was right.

[quote="Russ S.":1g53b8bt]Wish we could revive that post from the playoffs when someone SWORE that the investment level on Longo was over.
He'd be eating his words. Pretty sure these are even higher than then.

No need to, I remember that, I just can't remember the poster, maybe someone else will! But I distinctly remember reading it since I had a Longo chrome at the time.

Actually, I argued this point as well. And there was another thread that showed what Longoria Chromes were selling for during the playoffs, and what they were selling for during the offseason. Longoria Chromes dropped nearly in half. Nobody was telling cardtreasury to sell and NOT buy back. They were telling him to sell during the playoffs while they were high, then buy back during the offseason. If everyone had done that, they would be making double what they are making now.[/quote:1g53b8bt]

Yeah, no one saying "Sell" at that time (& then buy back later) should be "eating crow", as this was the CORRECT thing to do (because they did just as predicted by those stating: "sell now, buy back in the offseason")! As BBcardkid mentioned, those "holding" longoria could have made $$, bought back in, & now resell for ton's o' profit!!! Too bad I didn't buy into Longo! :?

It was me that said sell at $200 and rebuy in the offseason. Whoever I was arguing with said hold hold hold. These were available for $120 or so in the offseason so clearly that was still the right call.[/quote:coa0ze01]

T'was me, and I cannot find the thread where Wes came in and said "VINDICATED!" Bummer. I didn't respond to that bcause I knew time was all I needed. I didn't anticipate not being able to drum it back up.

Who cares anyway? I don't.

You still don't get it. Holding instead of selling at $200 during the playoffs made no sense. The prices came down under $140 in the offseason. The best plan, as I've said all along, was to sell at $200, rebuy during offseason if you were a believer. Still "VINDICATED!" if you want to put it that way.

 

[Incline Investments]

It was Mike (card-treasury), myself, and maybe a couple others backing Longoria.

 

[Rickzcards]

Wish I held onto the base auto and xfractor that I had. Sold the base for a little over $100 and the xfractor for $210 and change. That's the risk you take with prospects.

Agreed. That's nearly always the best plan. Every baseball card sees drops in the offseason for the most part. This should be the advice for any hot player in the WS. Their cards will come down even if they actually have the talent to stay hot the next season.

On a related note.....what's the approximate print run on the base chromes? If it's anything around 5,000 I cant really see them sustaining a price over $300 for the long haul. I think people think back to the Pujols chrome auto when comparing new guys' chrome autos. When in reality there were only 500 Pujols autos. So say a Pujols goes for around $2,000 with 500 copies of the card. So if there are 4 times as many base Longorias they should be sustainable around $200 if he is on the same level as Pujols. If he's better than toss it all out the window. :lol:

Sometimes your posts are laughable. Apparently you have selective memory, but luckily I do not. Your stance was they would drop in the near future. I stated in my post that I don't recommend taking your day trading stance of buying-selling-buying-selling that same cards. You will lose in the long run doing that. Those were my words, stated, in the thread. Your a mod now, so find the post. I said Longo would sell for more this year, and to hold rather than sell at last year's prices. I was 100% correct.

100%, not 99.9%. 100%, as I am about you losing your shirt if you continue to day trade anything in the long run.

If the Rays would have won the World Series and Longo did not go cold in those games, that card never would have dropped, so even in your day trade mode, you got lucky.

I knew Longo would be a monster this season, and I knew his cards would sell for more this season that last, and that is exactly what I stated in that thread.

Exact-a-mundo, my friend.

Try to find it. You're not VINDICATED to me. I knew this season Longo would sell for more than when you were claiming he was at his peak. And he is.

100%, my man.

Uhhh......you're both vindicated. Each way actually worked out. It just comes down to how risky you want to be. Two different styles, which in this case both work.

What's so hard to understand?

What I advocated:
Initial buy $100
Sell at $200
Rebuy at $120-130
Sell at $250
+220

What you advocated:
Initial buy at $100
Hold at $200
Hold at $120-130
Sell at $250
+150

Pretty simple to me... 100%? What a joke. I "KNEW" his cards would drop in the offseason the same way you "KNEW" he would do well this year. 99.9% of baseball cards went down in value during the offseason. That's how it works. I did not get "lucky."

 

[bballcardkid]

Day trading allowed me to get my Justin Upton 06 BC Blue Refractor Auto for pratically -$80.00. Basically, I have the card and $80.00. It works for me.

i sold my psa 10 x longo for like 200. lol! one time i asked jp to hold or sell, he said hoooooold....didn't listen...

dave

Maybe I should send all my nicely centered Xfractors that have Xfractor lines to PSA so they can gem mint! That Xfractor line at the bottom would never be gem mint through bgs... Food for thought!

james, sometimes i think psa is the way to go when i see end prices on these bowman chrome cards. i have seen quite a few psa 10's outselling bgs 9.5's
