Bowman Chrome +++++
 

Up to $900 per case! Congrats to anyone who locked in early.

A&G about to jump also

I have 10 cases comming - if this stuff goes much higher I will be forced to sell without ripping!!

What did it start at?

Starting to think the same thing as well which would be tough since I have been looking forward to this all summer and planned to take time off from work to rip.

We should start to see some breaks on other boards by Friday. If we see the star autos are SPd or the #d inserts have horrible odds I will definiately not be busting.

chris' low point was $725 up to $900 now.

Thanks Phil!

currently up to $960!!!

Well if you bought in at the low you made a 30% return in 1 month. I have had better luck investing in cards this month than I have in the stock market.

Well, my opinion continues to waver...

2 weeks ago: hold
1 week ago: hold/rip
yesterday: rip em all
today: flip em all

hmmm...

Blowout might be selling it @ $960, but that doesn't mean everyone else is. i saw a couple of 6 box cases listed for $370ish.

i don't think you could move them now for more than $825. i hope that everyone can, but be a little realistic about the price fluctuation. i'll bet by the beginning of next week, 12 box cases are down around the $850 mark.

I agree that eBay takes time to catch up, but those prices have jumped as well. All of the 12 box cases are listed in the neighborhood of at least 900 now.

I wonder what is driving the push up. Hopefully Chris knows something we all don't.

It's common sense that when a price fluctuates it will take a little bit of time for the market to adjust, so obviously not everyone is going to be at this price the same day of the change. With the historical strength of bowman chrome and the content of this years rookie crop I'd say this price is very realistic.

maybe yesterday. it took a huge jump today.

you could get $850-875 right now. dealers are buying up everything $825 or less.

if you are talking about chris' listed price i'll take that bet. i think it will never be below $900 again. it might jump over $1000 and fall back to $900, but i think there's too much demand pressure to go below 900.

I was checking the Bowman Chrome thread on the MOJO site. Someone mentioned they found a site with chrome at $66 a box. I went to the site and it had 50 boxes available. I had to answer a phone call, I was away for maybe 5 mins. I go back to site and they were sold out.

I am amazed at how hot this product is. I have 7 cases that I was so looking forward to busting. How do I not flip now?

It would save me so much time to flip, but those cases will be calling out to me.

mfarmer, that same site had 114 boxes about 45 min ago...

Even if you do flip them on Ebay, you'll get killed with Ebay fees and paypal fees....with the amount of people that are thinking about flipping them now, I feel a ton better about breaking my cases.

I don't think they do now. At least....the site I checked didn't.

unfortunately a few people on this board changing their minds about ripping won't change a thing on ebay. it will still get shredded at record pace.

I can't wait. I will have 3 of my cases this Friday.....
































Ok, So I wished it was this Friday

[QUOTE=Crash1207;1937]I don't think they do now. At least....the site I checked didn't.[/QUOTE]

I imagine it is the same site.

Great point Solt. I hope everyone decides to hold or flip their sealed cases which will help maintain prices for those still busting.

Fewer auctions should drive up prices of the singles wich will also help keep the case prices high so for once everyone wins!

I'm a little worried about the print runs, potential that the stud autos like Joba get SPd and half the autos end up being redemption cards.

These prices are getting retarded - I had all the prospect auctions ready in Turbo Lister but now I am just going to sell my cases sealed. It's up to $960 now and with the Joba hype I am hoping for $1000 per case so I can get out with a 35% profit, I doubt I will be able to get that busting the cases.

Don't be so sure you couldn't get $1000 per case if you bust. The hype not only pushes the case price up, it will also push the prices for individual cards/lots up as well. People will want to acquire their players right out of the gate, but if they see the prices on the cases going up, the value of the product inside the cases goes up as well, therefore they will pay more for individual cards.
