Damn. I guess you are of the impression that we are at the floor for a lot of these cards?

T206 will have a problem if there's no season, I wonder if they'll even cut the number of releases if there's no rookies or minor league players for later releases.

Yeah? So you think it’s not made to order, but has a defined limit? I ordered with the hope of it having a limit and selling out before the clock expires, but this is my first time with a product like that

Same here, I bought some early cards that I missed that have really grown on me. Didn't spend 5k but these cards are awesome. No regerts.

If you lost 50% and then bought another at today’s prices, average your cost back down to 75% of original purchase price, you’d also reduce the number of cards in circulation which would have an added effect of driving prices up.

Also research "throwing good money after bad".

I grit my teeth reading some of the economic theories promulgated on this board

This is a buyers market! I would buy low PR and the first released ones now while they are cheap (cards 1-50)

Don C Ripkens are selling for above MSRP. Lowest BIN is 25ish. Does this mean that cards with a 40k+ print run still have legs? Is the sky in fact not falling?

If you wanted to cash out, last weekend was a good time to do that.

If you want to collect the whole set, this weekend is a good time to do that.

What a difference a week makes.

I sold one of my "Topps Project" cards weeks ago to buy my 20-pack.

Just my opinion that it would have sold out if it wasn't for "Topps Project."

Should be a halfway-decent pull.

Crazy market. Saw a Chang/Rivera go for $600 on a obo and then it disappears from the sold listings.

I dont see how grabbing #10-50 at say May 16th levels is throwing good money at bad.

Even if the flip game moves on the love for the set will continue to grow. Seems like smart money to me

What are these custom superfractors I’m now seeing??

I enjoy a lot of the posts this afternoon with excitement about the cards themselves, favorite artists/cards, showing off collections, etc.... and especially news from the artists themselves.

It’s a much welcome change from all the financial prognostication about % increases and print runs, pumping up profits on Money Bear and fanny packs, and general greed and nastiness. That stuff takes some of the fun out of this, at least for me. Remember that if your prospects for future profit depend on attracting more collectors who want to build the sets or artists/players they want, that kind of garbage can be very off-putting and isn’t in your or anyone’s interests. Inclusivity of others and appreciation of the product makes it all much more appealing.

Just ask me since it was my BST you saw them in. I made them for myself and to send to the artists.

I’ve also sent one free as a surprise to a buyer here.

So if you take out the high and low, the avg print run is about 7900, up 400% since launch

[JRX]

A guy just listed 10 henderson blakes at the same time, do people not even know how to properly sell stuff, you just undercut all your auctions.

Nice! Seems like the undercutting has paused for a little. If people just had a little patience with their listings, there’s no need for drastic undercutting. It will sell... just wait your turn.
