What am I missing or what gives? Is it worth losing money every transaction just for the cash back/airline miles on the Credit card? Or are sellers doing this to try to join Topps Platinum club?

Thanks for reading and hope everyone has a great weekend
i like paying $5 per card, and getting mint cards

Everyone one of my Ichiro cards were bad. The other 2 players weren’t far behind in condition. This was a bad week condition wise.

Only problem my 2 sets have is one Devers card has a print mark on the top border. That’s what I get for saying I can live with printing issues.

Looks like these are coming from 2 different locations in Florida.

Davie and Sunrise

Looks like they got the shipping issues worked out. Both locations using foam on top and bottom with rubber bands.

Sunrise seems to be going through a TON more supplies. I ordered 5 bundles for Ichiro and Henderson weeks. Sunrise sends each bundle in 5 seperate boxes. Davie sent all 5 bundles in 1 package. Both arrived in GREAT shape.

I'm starting with the first 12 (I need 4 more to complete), but I'd like to grow it beyond that--maybe the first 100 eventually. Have to see how the values of these hold up beyond the early weeks.

Quick question while i am here.....

I am not buying weekly cards anymore.. i am spending 100 a week...

I dont want to worry about damage and wait 27 days for my cards...

So i am selling out.... But i am going to take my 100 a week and buy a psa card each week...

Is it an awful time to start buying psa cards now??? with pops so low...

Or between condition issues and lower then normal product runs... Prices might not go down a lot

Harper for example first one is going to go for 150-200 i am sure... but 9000 cards i am sure we will see a psa 10 pop of 200-300-400 someday...

I don't follow pops enough.. is that still low..

Thanks for any insight ...

I'm really starting to wonder if these Living PSA 10 prices are real. I keep seeing Ohtani PSA 10s auction for more than $200. Yet there is one for $175 OBO and free shipping just sitting there with no buyers.

I shake my head at this kind of thing all the time. I will have cards listed for less buy it now then auction. I think people get caught up in the auction bidding.

I agree people get caught up in their auction. However, cards listed below these final prices may not have the same eye appeal.

"Pops" only increase in time. that goes for 99.9% of cards

buy what you are comfortable collecting. i wouldnt buy these for "investment"

That seller has a lot of quantity and only one pic. That’s why I didn’t pick one of those up.

That makes a little more sense but you could always request to see a few and pick one and save 30 bucks.

Sure--I'm not going to take the time to get basic information on an item being sold, but someone could do that.

The thing I really really like about the living set and base topps now cards is the fact that there are no parallels!!! JUST here is the fn card...its not orange nor red nor blue or "super", no 2 or 3 letter scribbled "autograph"...etc etc....my favorite cards to collect as a Yankee fan! And yes, I get the fact with topps now we are spoiled that we have a yearly set to collect.
