Beckett's break of 09 BDP

[Superfractor]

I've gone through the list twice: I can't find Rex Brothers. I CAN'T FIND REX BROTHERS.

He isn't in it, or you'd have competition for his Super.

Hm? Was he ever intended to be in it? I could of sworn, or maybe...? Either way, it's a minimal loss (or delusional loss). The majors for me, were always Tim and Tyler.

W/07 bcdp cases being <$400 now, it’s getting mighty tempting to rip them in bulk again. Sometimes, redirecting $ normally reserved for BC/BCDP, elite, sterling, etc. is the better choice.

The last 9 months or so have been extremely busy, I have started to miss the hobby lately. I gave some thought recently to cracking cases of '07 BCDP myself because of the declining cost but my real fear is hitting a streak of "green" parallels across multiple cases.

I agree it is tempting.

Heyward - sells as good as ever
Bumgarner - still sells pretty well
Laporta - prices way down
Moose - prices way down
Price - prices way down
Taylor - sells nicely
Freeman - sells ok
Longoria FG Chromes - sell ok
Joba Chromes - way way down
Lincecum - sells nicely

There are just too many of the base autos that are now $1-$3 cards...I'm not sure how a massive rip at current prices would go but sure would be interested in the results!

I think 10-20 cases with a 15-20% Bing discount might pan out rather nicely. Plus, I would be tempted to hold the Price and Laporta cards because there is little down-side risk compared to their upside potential. It only takes one good game from Price and then you have a window to earn a nice profit.

If you can get the 15-20% then it may very well work out for you.

Totally agreed on Price and Laporta too.

I'd certainly rip that at current prices rather than 2009 BDP!

I’ve not encountered many green cases in 07 bcdp + when I did, the autos/parallels made up for it- ex., 1 green case had a beau mills red ref au which more than paid for the case + another green case had a brent lillibridge superfractor which paid for over 50% of the case. even w/the down market of 09, I still did very well busting 07 bcdp cases + I've still got some very nice parallels left.

For now, I’m waiting to see if bing’s going to go back up (25-30% please), but I don’t see much downside/risk to ripping 10-20 cases of 07 bcdp @ say $300 or </case.

 

[ballerskrip]

I have been pondering ripping a large amount of 2007 bcdp also. My main concern is the lack of $$$ that chrome lots have been bringing in. If the autos sucks, which they do, and the chrome lots outside 5-6 are selling for nothing, then where is the return going to be?

Again, I have tried to convince myself to jump on it, but haven't been able to justify it as of yet.

I found the key to profiting is timing (NOT when say BCDP/ee/sterling JUST come out + NOT @ christmas, but rather when there’s a “lull” in new stuff) + listing the bulk of it @ 1x…that seems to draw in more bidders who will bid on even “cheap lots”. Granted, you’re not going to get rich off of say a 20 ct lot of Reynaldo Navarro or Robinzon Diaz, but if you’ve got all the chrome lots (green + white) up @ the right time, you may find bidders are more interested than you’d think.

I threw up what I considered “junk lots” (think non-chromes or chromes of lesser tier prospects) + found bidding wars started occurring. Maybe it was b/c there was a “lull”, maybe it was b/c 08 bcdp didn’t have a huge loaded cl, maybe it was b/c the economy was better, maybe it was b/c I didn’t have any real competition, or maybe it was b/c buyers were looking beyond heyward etc. + wanted to get “their guys” cheaply. Maybe it was just random bidding wars. Even stuff I considered “junk” (stuff that didn’t sell the 1st time around, not some huge prospect, etc.) went for decent amounts. I’ll be listing some more 07 bdp “junk” (bulk non chrome lots/bulk gold lots) soon + will see how they do.

The only real downside to 07 bcdp is it takes a buttload of time to sort + list, unless you use stock photos for everything, but then buyers may whine b/c you didn’t show them that 1 chrome was off-centered. It just seems that 07 bcdp @ $300 or </case (combo ebay bucks, bing, ebay coupons, bigcrumbs, etc.) is a good price to make decent $ @.

Another Ynoa?

Wow. I have 2 incoming, that kinda hurts.

Yay for Robert Stock though.

The 2007 DPP product has quite possibly the worst autograph checklist since 2002 DPP. That said, base chrome sell for practically nothing anymore. I go with 2009, though I like EEE a bit more.

If we're talking about horrible auto checklists, 2006 is up there as well. After Kershaw and Longoria...it gets ugly really quick...Steve Evarts, Brad Furnish, Matt Long, Steven Englund (I think I still own a BGS 10), Ronny Bourquin, Michael Felix...oy vey.
