I see Atlanta is rubbing the Mantle pull in my face! I bought soo many Legends boxes from there and my last group was so bad I emailed to ask where he got them from, he said he just now got a new batch from Razor and it must have been in that damn bunch!!!

Hey, didn't mean to rub it in by posting the Mantle. I've been buying quite a bit of these boxes from a couple of good sources because it sells pretty well on my site. I guess it's been sitting in a warehouse somewhere out there. Makes me wonder about how long it's been sitting in mine. Either way, what a great card.

Thanks,
Josh

Good deal. I appreciate all the business. Just wanted to make sure you weren't upset. Hopefully you'll pull the next big thing. Maybe the Strasburg out of Rookie Retro perhaps.

Thanks,
Josh

That's my thinking...why sell my Lebron BGS 9 now when no one is talking about basketball when I can get double what they are selling for now (or more) once the season starts and the hype train begins...

If you are buying this product to possibly pay off your debts...you're in the wrong business. Buy this product because it's a hobby to you and you like to pull nice slabbed cards...at least that's what my mindset is on this.

I was shaking my head over this too. Even football is too early. Summer is just not a great time to list. Have to wait till the weather turns and they're indoors more.

I disagree on football, there are a lot of guys like Aaron Rodgers right now selling for all time highs! Guys who have huge expectations for this season are selling really big right now and you could make an argument they aren't going to go higher, even with great seasons.

It's the height of prospecting season for football.

Here's the question: When's the best time to sell the retired slabs that are coming out of this product -- the Rices, Montanas, Jordans, etc?

I completely agree, lots of hype around football players right now and no actual performance yet - so no risk of disappointing play.

That's a good question on vintage, my thought has always been that prices are pretty stable on those cards and don't fluctuate much with the different seasons but I certainly could be wrong.

Now is most def the time to be SELLING football. Spring is over. The days of me picking up Flacco RC Slabs for less then $2 each are long gone. Now, for a little while longer anyway, is the time to buy Hoops Slabs. But that window is just about closed as well.

when is a good time to buy HOF FB Slabs? May/June imo, and into the really hot time period. just long enough after the draft and before training camp has people thinking about FB again.

the one thing working against this theory is that there arent always a TON of what one may be looking for listed during that time period.

Thanks for the insight on the HOF slabs...there certainly are more listed now!

Jordan Lyles Prismatic auto #4/6 - $45.68

http://cgi.ebay.com/JORDAN-LYLES-2008-R ... 19bf28f870


Talk about adding some value to your RRR break!
I was the third highest bidder on this card and I was sure I was over-bidding due to the beer and adrenaline from my fantasy football draft last night. Alas, I'll wait for the next one.

Can someone tell me what these proof cards are? Sorry for the stupid question, but it says it is a signature and I don't see one. ::facepalm::

For what it is worth the BGS 9's - [phil:1f5v60mr]230517273147[/phil:1f5v60mr] weren't selling for much more than what they are selling for now last season. So speculation that a card like this, or other basketball cards will double once the season comes around is just silly.

Last year and this year are TOTALLY different as far as Lebron, D-Wade, Bosh cards are concerned. The spotlight is on them more than any other year...they're going to get major media coverage throughout the season...I have hope! :D


The media coverage has been there for Lebron the whole way along...his cards have already achieved unheard of prices. I do agree that him/Dwade/Boshs cards could be looked at differently than others.

However, I think the myth I was trying to dispel in general is that once b-ball season comes around lots of these cards will see nice spikes in price. Not necessarily true at all.


Oh, that I agree 100%.

Not all cards...just sleeper ones that people are looking over now in favor of football and baseball cards. Those have the potential to grow.

they do yes...but in those cases, you'd be way better off to just buy them from eBay as singles rather than break these packs.

Back to the Retro thoughts for a minute - i haven't seen a prismatic of Smoak, Posey, Alvarez, Wieters or Hicks show up on ebay yet.[/quote:1f5v60mr]

I have an Alvarez. I haven't listed yet though.
