the current dip is sneakerbois cashing out.

I'm telling you, people hate money.

This was sold yesterday for $5,000:

And today this was listed for $1900 BIN:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/TOPPS-PROJE...p2047675.l2557

Just 3 minutes of homework could have earned you, I don't know...two, three, or maybe even four thousand more dollars.

Failed attempt at cornering the market? Sorry that backfired on you.

Maybe the truest thing you'll read on the boards all day. Im calling it the Ignorance Arbitrage. Basic common sense and deductive reasoning skills are worth 20% right off the bat it seems, sometimes more.

Yeah, I am done undercutting. I agree, people are cashing out, buyers market. Will hold.

None people build stories in their own heads all the time. I remember this one time when I was younger and my brother went to the store on his bicycle, but we lived 6 miles out of town and so..... and gary vee didnt say anything about it.

This isnt true. There’s no way this lasted more than half a second after it was listed. Vulturing all the IN HAND undercutting BIN is next to impossible

Blake said he would be on Gary V's Tea Time on Friday. That is confirmation in my book. Why would he just make that up?

Because in the future you will have substantial more buyers than sellers?

I see plenty of non "sneakerbois" out here cashing out.

So y'all want to blame "sneakerbois" for jumping the PR up this week, yet at the same time think they are also the ones cashing out on earlier releases?

And that is why I am holding on to my last four Trout "Baller" cards.

I am keeping one for my PC, and the other four to sell in the future.

This sounds more like rationalization of a rapidly depreciating asset.

Bone Thugs N Harmony, we ain't.

was literally just looking for a "1st of tha Month" gif...

[Soxfanguy]

So what I got for today is

PRs were higher than expected for Koufax/Williams
Everyone is freaking out and panic selling on eBay

I miss anything else?

Super Easy Hold Patience. Never a straight shot to the peak

Gary Vee saying nothing might be the best scenario if one is hoping for price increase.

Then the Gary Vee mention bump is arguably not priced in, and one can justify a higher ceiling.

However, if a core component to valuation is whether Gary Vee pimps the product, that speaks to the underlying product.

[BurnerNotify]

If Gary Vee stockpiled early cards (and the prevailing thought is he did) I have to imagine he’s going to say something positive about P2020 eventually.

You are indeed, a bored lawyer.

As a math teacher, your post makes me sad...

Wow, what does this make Trout worth, 25K?
