Opening Bowman Jumbo, Minding my own busness, and then this... Value?

Great pull! I hate to say it but if I did pull one of these I would have signed it asap.

Well that was pretty disappointing. With close to 600 views and over 80 watchers, my contract only went for $410. That's $80+ cheaper than the first one sold for. Oh well, glad I hit it though. Without it I would have gotten killed on my breaks. Atleast now I'm in the black.

Sweet pull no matter what. 1,000 seems like the right price.

In all honesty, you would have been much better off waiting and doing a 5 day+ auction. One day isn't enough time to get the proper exposure.

I would guess that trumps being picked as a Bowman Scout?

I ran it for 3 days. The first one was sold on a 1 day auction and sold for $490+. If 600 views and 80+ watchers isn't enough exposure then I must be doing something wrong.

Yeah but many of those watchers were probably people from here just curious what it sells for. I was one. 7 day auction definitely wouldn't have hurt.

Nah. I get to be pictured on an autographed card, plus I get to make suggestions for future checklists to the Bowman team. Neener.

I don't think it would have helped, though. Anything from 2013 Bowman is getting PLENTY of exposure, especially higher priced items. I'm not at all surprised by the end price, Topps hurt the value by decreasing your odds and decreasing the prize. All you were guaranteed was a ball autographed by an unnamed prospect

@cgilmo should buy it.

Gilmore? On a baseball diamond?? REALLY
