Forget bots,


These artists have their own dedicated project2020 web stores. How do we even confirm or know if these artists are playing favorites, indulging in nepotism, or engaged in bad practices by notifying close ones or buddies of launches dates of their artist proofs and 1/1, on their websites, only to have these same buddies sell them on 3rd party marketplaces for large returns?

Most are SOLD OUT. I have emailed Several with no response.

The print runs on these will be sky high and from here on out, you wont see the crazy price increases. Just my opinion, but Id guess print runs this week of 55k for the Griffey and 40k for the Ryan.

What if Fucci did a "send your card to me and I'll autograph it for free, just pay $19.95 or so for sticker, return bubble mailer, and shipping" deal. AND every auto he drew on a face.

He. Would. Blow. Up.

I am not going to lie, I didn’t open this thread until today. This is crazy. The two cards that are up today don’t really appeal to me, but I had to purchase a Trout by Baller. That card is gorgeous.

Have you seen his other work? I’m surprised Topps would want to work with him

I think today's releases PR will be highest because most people are home doing nothing. I still think there's money to be made specifically because there are still people in this thread who either think todays cards are "boring" or the PR will be too high to make any profit. That's not to say their opinion is invalid, but if there's that many people who aren't buying, there's going to be money to be made. Just look at the Jeter that was released 2 days ago. I told myself I would buy the next Jeter, but because I didn't like the artwork, I opted not to. They're selling for $100 two days later.

There's no way they exceed 100k I don't think.

The best thing about a card going up after you sell it is the elimination of buyer's remorse.

I want people who buy things from me to be PSYCHED about the deal.

It's also INSANE that cards that haven't even shipped from Topps are up 2,000%. The choice between money and morality is basically the defining choice of the human condition.

The best decision that I made in all of this was that when I was worried that a seller of my first secondary market card was going to cancel after it tripled overnight from $25 to $75, I bought another at $75.

After Paypal fee and shipping, I net 260 or so. What kind of dirty scumbag won't honor that?

Personally, I hope the card SKYROCKETS for the guy that bought it from me. I have another, and I'd rather share the joy and be able to live with myself, but even if I didn't, be a man (or woman) of your word, and honor the damned deal.
Sellers that cancel pre-sales not only steal from you, they also use your funds (interest free) for the 1-2 months between the sale and when Topps ships. Talk about leverage!!

This page is getting more traction than the BST, so this will be the only time I'll say it.

If you have a Chang Robinson, I will trade a Beck Ripken straight up for it. Both are sitting at $400. I will honor any PM agreement sent today.

I'm saying this because I believe the Beck Ripken will surpass the Chang Robinson.

I recognize this ebay name. He canceled on me last week. Here's a funny exchange:



So I gave him 10 days to pay and he did not and then I had no choice but to cancel the sale. Turned around and sold it for $600. To be clear, he was supposed to buy that card from me and told me he could not pay. The same card he's scamming you over. I think he was trying to pump the price of the card.

I really doubt these artists are the scamming kind. They are into art and getting art into people's homes.

Someone has 9 Trout Ermsy LOT on eBay For $25K which got scooped up.
I believe the seller initially had it listed at 10k, 15k and eventually 25k. The price went up as others sold. I was watching it at 10k when I was willing to pay $450 a card.

Great sale.
