More mama_bear** discussion...

[cmnkb8]

Boxes of 2010 Bowman Chrome at my cost was $22.50 per box.
All right smartallecks, how do you propose that a baseball card store can stay open besides mine paying the prices you are quoting leaving no room for product that is not sold and having to pay for it any way and keeping the high interest and selling items affordable to make a profit and stay in business with the costs of running and keeping a shop open?
I would love to hear your theories on this.

This guy obviously created a account just to stir people up. This crap is really starting to pile up in here.

It does make for a "lively" discussion though

Then show a invoice of your Topps direct sheet of what you paid. You can say anything you want so that the truth does not come out. And if boxes of Bowman Chrome sold for $51 then why are dealers selling it for around $38 now? Has it already gone down in value? That quick?
I am actually having fun.
No dealer will print and show their Topps direct invoice because I have ruffled some feathers in telling the true prices I pay.
Believe whoever you want. However ask the others for proof. I will bet they will have an excuse as to why they can not come up with a Topps direct invoice for Bowman Sterling just to keep the racket going in their favor.
HA!

You must have no clue about this industry if you don't know why Bowman Chrome is selling for $38 now.

He has people waiting for the UPS guy so he doesn't really follow what happens after release.

I say we just ban the *******. He's just not anywhere near speaking the truth. If you know ANYTHING about the industry you know he's full of ****.

Ban him for trolling. All this was meant to do was to take the heat off of mama_bear

 

[baseballcardseller]

Well a customer told me that Atlanta Sportscards or Blowout Sportscards are selling boxes of Bowman Chrome for around $38. I do not know if that is true or not? So maybe I spoke out of turn.

With "baseballcardseller" and his posts, I can't help but think of this...

Well I do not know who mama bear is. So if I am helping her that is not my point. A customer told me this was about how much did a real price of Bowman Sterling sell for direct. I came on and put on what it cost me. If that is a reason to ban me then so be it. I think I have freedom of speech unless I use obscenities or vulgar things.
Only people I could think of who might want me banned are other direct dealers. For obvious reasons.
I am not here to make any trouble. I promise you that.

 

[All In Cards]

You really dont know why Bowman Chrome is selling so cheap? Also what wax do you have in your store ifyou never replace stuff after you sell out?

You aren't here with any real information either.

So you're either doing one of the following:
1. - Speaking with zero knowledge of any of it an simply making numbers up
2. - Lying simply to get a rise out of people
3. - Acquiring stolen product
4. - Completely crazy and delusional

I've chosen three of the four above.

Ok I have an idea. Are you at your shop or at home right now?

hockeyplayer I watched that video and it made me laugh. I have some customers who look like that guy. I wish I was as young and could move like him. But I bet I had more fun in the 1960s then he has. I did like the music sort of. It is not Elvis or Willie or Johnny but it was a funny sketch.
Oh and you left off a few things from your questionairre:
E None of the above and is he real
Which is the correct answer.
Is that music what card collectors here listen to? I like the humor but would never get any thing pierced or my hair cut that way.
Any way. I do not want to take away from mama bears discussion so I will let you digest this.
Please keep an open mind especially if no one dares to put a copy of a Topps direct invoice on here backing up my cost.
In America you are innocent until proven guilty and no one can prove me guilty. I promise you that.

 

[baseballcardseller]

I am home above my shop.

Then why did you post in here in the first place?

I am home above my shop.

What boxes do you currently have in stock? With prices please.

 

[baseballcardseller]

I think I said a few times before that a customer told me about this thread and that the question was asked how much was Bowman Sterling. He gave me a copy of a page and asked me to respond. And I have.
Is it just me or are some people here hard of hearing? I have never heard of hard of reading so I wonder.

 

[CollectorsCorner]

I have been selling Topps products for over 40 years now and what I wrote is the honest truth. I could care less if you believe it or not. Just a customer told me about this thread and I thought I would come on and tell you how much a box cost me directly from Topps.
Thanks for reading and enjoy your card collecting!

WOW, so boxes directly from Topps cost you $90 per, yet stores are selling them for $260-$300 per box. If this is true, I would NEVER feel bad for my LCS again. Gilmo, can you comfirm this?

Apparently there are a number of things you've never heard of. A few of them:

(1) Profit
(2) Bowman Chrome
(3) Bowman Sterling
(4) Topps
