First Prizms could probably be a thing, you have 2014 WC, 2016 Euro, 2018 WC and now 2019-20 EPL Prizm, especially if basketball and football collectors expand to soccer

IMO all the pack based products from 2014 Prizm WC will trend upwards including the early Select products. Select has always been Panini's go to for footie releases. I don't believe we'll ever see prices move downwards. This was evident with the recent footie releases of Chronicles & Finest.

Worse thing about, PSA and BGS have both graded fakes as the real thing.

I'm a Chinese. I can tell you the prizm/chrome cards are safe so far.

You being Chinese doesnt make you a master on whats being faked and what isnt just like me being Irish doesnt make me a master on anything come out of Ireland.

Fakes are part of the game. You can pretend otherwise but everyone will be stung with a fake at some stage.

2002 World Cup sealed box - $265.. A big surprise to me at least, since the x-factor of Messi and Ronaldo is not there.

Wow...I bet “soccer guy” is furious over these auction numbers.

With soccer cards growing, do you think PSA will ever do a quarterly special for soccer card bulk grading?

[bobbycass]

Its strange to me that PWCC can sell the exact same card as this

https://www.ebay.com/itm/2016-17-PAN...sAAOSwwiVfGfEB

For a little bit more but this guy still hasnt had anyone bid on his.

Hell no. They only offer specials on stuff nobody cares about. A year or two ago, perhaps...

that guy has 146 followers on ebay, PWCC has 21,363 - pure volume of traffic and more eyes on what they sell.

I've bought something for more money off of an account i'm familiar with over one I'm not.

Fair enough I suppose. People bidding on what they see not what they are particularly looking for?

People don't know what they want until you show it to them.

Finally getting some stuff back from PSA. Bought 11 complete sets of 2014 Prizm a few months back. I have a couple Messi that gem'd as well but don't have them in hand yet!

This was already posted in the Pele thread, but a confirmed sale of a PSA 8 1958 Alifabolaget 635 for $75000 occurred yesterday. This is a record price for a public sale of a soccer card. The original record was a sale of a PSA 9 1958 Alifabolaget 635 in November of 2018 for $57000.

The 1958 Alifabolaget 635 may well be considered the T206 Wagner of soccer. The 1958 Alifabolaget 635 is not only Pele’s World Cup rookie card, it is also over 60 years old and very hard to find in good condition. Moving forward, the 1958 Alifabolaget 635 is likely to retain its status as the most valuable card in soccer and remain a good barometer for the general health of the soccer hobby market.

It looks quality too. A lot of cards from around then were hand drawn or badly printed, but this Pele looks fantastic.

Agreed. Pete’s Alifabolaget 635 is his most visually appealing rookie card by a large margin.

Pete was a good chap. Shame his skills on the pitch just didn’t quite measure up to that of his alter ego, Pele.
