Thank You Andrew Luck & Leaf .... My Haul.....

[Russ S.]

Ok, here's how I made out with the Andrew Luck Leaf Prismatic Error "fiasco".
I was lucky enough to land 2 of the errors, and 2 base.

Sold off the 2 errors and 1 base.
I got lucky with 2 great buyers who paid immediately.

Here's what I ended up with after investment & sale fees were calculated.

Matt Harvey 2011 In The Game Grand Slam Auto 1/1
Francisco Lindor 2011 Elite Red Auto /25
Zach Britton 2011 Topps Finest Orange Ref. Auto Redemption /99
Mychal Givens 2011 Bowman Sterling Canary Diamond Auto 1/1
Mychal Givens 2011 Bowman Sterling Purple Ref. Auto /10
Mychal Givens 2011 Bowman Sterling Gold Ref. Auto /50
Cal Ripken 1999 Fleer Brilliants Gold /99
Cal Ripken 2000 Spx Radiance /100
And still have $100

(All cards have shipped and are en route, and I'll update the thread as they arrive)

What is the back story with the Luck Leaf cards? I tend to not follow football cards, so I have no idea what you are talking about.

They weren't autos Matt, not sure where you saw that?

They were the Leaf Prismatic Errors.

Good job Russ!

I'll be posting the same thing eventually. My investment was $74.95 for 5 of those Andrew Luck Prismatic error cards. When all is said and done, I should turn that $74.95 into $1000+ (already collected $525 for 2 weekend sales with $222.50 more coming tonight for a completed Friday auction). Pretty good 10-15 day flip if ya ask me

 

[A_Pharis]

Now THAT'S flipping. Nice, sir.

 

[mwheeler27]

Well done, gentlemen.
