Topps Living Set - Page 234

monkeymcgee · 07-09-2018, 02:41 PM

My first mission has been accomplished -- the first 21 in PSA 10

I'm taking a break for a bit on the graded Living until I see how prices shake out, but I don't anticipate getting more than just individual cards I like.

Raw core set is still going strong

Looks great. I'm missing the Acuna and Ramiriez but following the same plan of waiting out the graded cards for a bit. Instead, I've been picking up more raw lower numbers

You're smarter than me--I was in a hurry to wrap this up and spent too much on this second group. Taylor and Pollock were the most challenging to land and then I ended up winning 2 auctions for each the same night

astrotrevor · 07-09-2018, 03:33 PM

It was probably the same night I “overpaid” on a few (Smith, Taylor ). So many were ending so quickly it was tough to see if you had won or not.

I say “overpaid” now, but who knows where these will be in a year. Fun to watch.

Congrats on the set so far. They look awesome graded.

scottagibson · 07-09-2018, 05:33 PM

Beautiful!! I just sent a huge lot off to PSA. Hoping I grab a few 10s from the early issued weeks.

ThoseBackPages · 07-09-2018, 05:37 PM

LOVE IT!

the rest in 10 will be less painful now!

Anyone sell to eagles1306 ... buought card’s as is (in the photo) and wants to return them because he doesn’t like them. I know I am helpless in this from an eBay standpoint but anyone else deal with this with living and this buyer?

Nope but what was it that you sold may be interested.

I’ll just list it again...if I get the same cards in return. Was 5 #1’s I had gotten back from Topps.

I know how meticulous you are so I assume they are perfect. I wouldn't hold my breath on getting the same cards back....if you do I will be stunned.

Not this time...if I was selling sight unseen yes you would get as perfect as I could provide...in this case at least one was not the best (clearly off centered) so I mentioned in the ad to look at the photos. His complaint was he couldn’t tell...I think he snatched them up quickly since they were below going rates and didn’t look at the photos. So I suppose I am to blame a bit for not stating, in the title 4 Aaron Judge #1’s one or more off centered. You do really have to look at these...before biding or buying.

Does this happen often?

I’ve had it happen once before...not that it’s rampant like “un received” Now cards in 2016, but whenever money is involved it happens. I don’t think it was the guys intention in this case, just think he regretted pulling the trigger before looking closer at the cards. I think if he had just said that before I shipped them, I would have just canceled the auction...instead he waits till he gets them and wants to put the cost of that mistake on me.

So, how many in here picked up one of these for a “cover card” for the set?

They’ll definitely look good in a PSA 10 slab. There will be a lot of value there.

Malsk · 07-10-2018, 06:26 PM

I figured it would print high. It was one everyone was waiting for. I am in for 20...

I thought the same thing. I will get a few graded and see what happens.
