Card Shops have to love the kinda buzz that Ultimate is bringing though. Even if they dont have it in stock when people show up to buy maybe they settle for something else.

Ultimate is not bringing in people at least for us. We have a large regular customer base. Mostly football but a good core of Baseball collectors. Topps 2010 will/did bring in more people then Ultimate will. I would say at least 85% of the "high end" product never makes it out to the cases and shelves. It's already spoken for my our regular customers.

Josh look out he is not talking about a monitor that is 24 inches :D And I think he is over-exaggerating anyway :D

Good morning guys. Another bittersweet Sunday. Twelve hour day of work tomorrow so it's hard to enjoy Sundays TOO much!

Morning guys. How are you all doing? Got my cards from the break yesterday too. Didn't know I got an auto and a Hot Glove insert so those were both a pleasant surprise.

Will post some Wake cards in a bit after I upload to my bucket.

As of last Friday our LCS had two boxes of Ultimate left at $100 per. While I was loitering there, no one bought any, so no clue as to pulls.

Did see someone buy one pack of Tribute and pull a Mike Schmidt bat /79. He was kinda disappointed after spending almost $60 on it.

Few packs of Signature Stars were opened and only thing pulled was a USA jersey of someone.

There is a box of Topps Sterling sitting there at $300, but no interest so far.

I usually get up earlyish.

Thanks, I like the sig. Wish the scan of Rod was a little clearer. Maybe will have to futz with it to see if it can be sharper.

morning folks.

George I agree with your decision to sell the case. no reason to open it if you can sell it for $1,500.

going to the Pens Red Wings game at 12:30. it should be a great game.

this beauty came in the mail yesterday...

That is a nice patch there!

Looked at the LCS and they don't have any of your guys in the showcases. Will let you know if they do.
