I set a max bid of $550 on a PSA 6 that ended a few days ago. I was winning until the last day, it sold for $1600.

Whoa

I thought I had this one in a PSA slab but I was wrong. I do, however have his '57 and '58 Topps card in a PSA slab, which I did not think I had based on my spreadsheet. 


I think I am going to look for this one in an SGC slab. I am actively shopping for a '59 Frank Robinson in an SGC slab because the black card looks great in the black slab.

Not sharp corners but dang might be a 4 or 5 for a card that old is nice. I honestly don’t remember getting it.

It's been a month since my last purchase, I'm itching to buy something before the new year.

Maybe the 1989 Fleer Bill Ripken Fuck Face error (any grade, any grader). Maybe the 1959 Topps Frank Robinson SGC 5-6.

I met Jim Bunning at the Green Diamond Gallery a long time ago and I really like the pink card in the black slab.

I have a friend who as been going crazy on some app/website where you bid on getting cards and they rip them live in front of you, I dont know which one.  He literally does it all hours of the day and night.  Then I have to hear the stories of the cards he gets over and over.  I hope he gets over this soon.  I dont think he is being profitable at this point.  Seems like has to bid at least 60$ per rip and then you end up with a shitty team.  So far he has got two really good cards tho.  A 1 of 1 bryce harper card that comes in some type of glass frame.  He also got a Cooper Flagg rookie card.  But his ROI has to be terrible.

Yeah same types going to Walmart and target and buying every box per truckload ….screw the kids lol. I’m sure the card companies are losing money on these guys and I’m sure they are living the dream.


I have no desire for a random autograph card of a guy that may or may not go in to be a star…..even the guys who just get in the HOF the cards aren’t doing more than holding their value. It’s gotta be the huge stars to even think about holding their value value but there are so many different types 1 of 1’s it takes a career of Judge/Ohtani/Soto to stay valuable for the long haul.


And the 28-33 year olds that go this are mostly jerks that know everything

Yep, I just buy single cards that appeal to me. Not really worried about long term value or anything.

Same


These guys trying to make a fortune and think they are but are spending wild numbers.


I don’t care for value either as I’m never selling the cards I will buy or have bought.

Been hunting for this one for a while. Put in a comfortable max bid and won for almost $20 less.
