Both my RAZOR guys have had hardly anything on eBay recently, and nothing rare at all. Both are very big-name guys, too.

What's going on? Has this stuff really dried up this quickly, or is it simply an anomaly with my two players?

I've noticed it as well, I think it really is drying up.

I hear you. I was planning on buying about 10x more than I have bought so far.

Fortunately, I managed an Auto /25 of my guy.

I hear you there, not much of the stuff has shown up, are people holding cases or is this what happens when a product really is just that limited.

I don’t think it’s drying up, but rather many people who would’ve busted it may not have after seeing less than a tremendous return on ripping + flipping case proceeds. Also, some people are probably holding until before/during spring training to sell as they'll likely get more $ then.

I wanted to open some packs today when I went into the shop, however, the owner said he didn't think he would be getting anymore in...

Quick Theory: A lot of the individuals that busted Razor (me included) likely understand that prices will rise as the players develop into better prospects and get closer to the bigs.

I haven't seen a ton of Wallace stuff.

My Razor busts are sleeved top loaded and I'm not looking at them for a while.

You guys make good points.

I guess I just figured it to be like Chrome where I could pick up 25-30 Autos no problem, and I'm sitting at like 5 without a lot of new stuff coming up.

Maybe my expectations were off.

I have a bunch I need to list but travel so much I just don't have time :cry:

The cards are very much drying up on the secondary market. I have seen a steady decline in my search results, which lumps 6 players together.

Before, I would get 100+ items total.

Now, I get less than 35 total.

Soon enough, the number will be below 20 and that is crazy to me. I am glad I stocked up on my players early...and cheaply!

I don't think the product is drying up, but rather not too many people are ripping it at this point. I am sure some are holding cases while others don't want anything to do with the product.

I have to agree with the thoery that many "ripper's" were not impressed with how the secondary stuff was selling & so they are holding for better days (I really loved snaggin' the base auto's at $.99 per on many of the mid-level guy's & when bought in lot's you could snag some of the upper-level guy's for under $3.00 ea.). Only time will truly tell how this turns out but there really is no way you coulda went wrong if you have been buying single's (if you looked for bargains they were definitely there)! On a different product (Upperdeck USA) with the On-Card Auto's of the top guy's, they have been drying up & a Pedro Alvarez just ended at $49.33+$3.50 s/h :shock:

And I guess those Tri-Star cut-out auto's did well too this P.Alvarez just sold for $101.00+ $3.65 s/h :shock: :o
