Won’t be under $300 for long!

This sounds like a coping mechanism in case the cards you're about to sell 10x again weeks after they're gone.

Not sure why 30k is hard to believe when mwheeler showed his stash of 525k worth of cards. 30k is 1/15 of what he has.

Cost of living must be cheap in your hood if you can retire off of 18k X2 and 29.5K with 2 remaining sets. Kudos to you sir!

I've been looking at the $50ish cards trying to figure our which is poised to make a run to $75. The Mays by Sophia Chang and Ichiro by King Saladeen look like good candidates.

Quick question for everyone....I have (10) of the #39 Matt Taylor Jeters i bought for $14 each with the 10% discount....

They went from 30-40 to 90-100 within a week and only 82 on the bay at the moment....

Good time to unload or hold for a bit longer?

I think the answer is all of them. Most of the cards between 65-84 have hopped $20 in the last 24 hours.

My method has been only buying the cards I actually like & would like to keep in my collection. I’ve also only been buying the 2 packs. So if I like one of the two for the day I’m buying. I really tried to like the Don C Frank Thomas, but just couldn’t do it. I have a stack of those gold cards from the 90s and they just do nothing for me. I’m hoping I don’t regret it later & end up loving every other one of his releases & come up one card short of his set.

Why not unload 2 to cover cost and then play the market with the rest?

How about that Maitan kid? He was pretty hot and then...
