Complete b.s. (not from you) but this whole project.

I was not able to cart them. As soon as they came up I added to the cart
and checked out. They were gone already. I had to screens up and got it
right away.

I'm confident to see we had no chance from the start.

Artist autos are the new AP's.

If artists advertise times for their drops, bots will have them in seconds.

If anyone wants to help curb that, do not buy artist autos from people on eBay who are clearly not card collectors. At this point, I'd be willing to bet that maybe 10 of the 150 Shore Autos today went to card people.

Agreed. Unless it is the old auto's I won't play.

Lol,

Well I guess I am one of the bad guys then for currently selling an Efdot Auto of Nolan Ryan on eBay that I bought on his site about 2 weeks ago... FYI, they were available for at least a week.... So, if you were too slow to get one within a week then sorry bout it...

But this comment is ignorant.

I vastly underestimated this. Was planning to grab one of the /75 autos from Keith and it went from Coming Soon to Sold Out.

Fine, I'll take just my 2 regular Griffeys from Topps and be happy about it!

All good!

Simmer down big guy I'm talking about from here on out.

Efdot's autos 2 weeks ago were not very sought after.

Sheesh, so sensitive.

Not sensitive, you just should not be telling people how to spend their money.

Everyone should consider who reads this stuff, maybe you should play your cards closer to your chest.

The link to the Shore autos was posted last night. Not saying the bots weren't already sitting on them, but you guys make it so easy for anyone to pounce on something you might want for yourself.

I'm guessing most who got one, didn't want the auto for themselves. They want the Sally card that comes with it. At $200/$350/$500 it can't lose. The Shore auto is a plus. I might as well burn it down because I probably won't get one for myself after what I just witnessed on Keiths page. The artists should charge more. $200 for an auto Griffey and an artist card is 1000x better than trying for an AP. The bots and too many eyes are on the Artist pages. The artists page don't have anything protecting them from bots. Those are the new money makers here. Good luck.

My Brett + Gibson Autographed Cards Drop May 31st 11AM ET / US

To access it early, it will be password protected for 10 minutes prior to the drop. Will reveal the password on my YouTube LIVE stream at 10:45AM ET May 31st - http://youtube.com/tysonbeckdesign

Prices will reflect the value of the card currently. The lowest tier will be value + small amount ontop.

Look forward to seeing everyone Sunday Morning.

Buying artist autographed versions manually is probably impossible now. For the Shore Mariano Rivera autographs, I was able to put in 2 orders for blue and 1 for gold and still had time to spare. Things have changed. On the flip side, the base cards have been generating higher ROI's, so it's not the end of the world, but the collector in me really wanted that blue Griffey! Time to move on!

Exactly why I started the Patreon group. always coming up with new strategies to keep bots out.

FYI I don't mind the resellers. Yall are the reason this is working so well. I'm continuing to raise my autp prices to match the market value.

A LOT. Wait until Houdini starts getting his shipments in too. This thing is going to grow even more.
