Probably the same. It's a 1/1

I mean, there might be a slight increase in value but nothing significant.

That's a beautiful looking piece of cardboard. I'd sell now as well. Anything over 25k and I'd be the most ecstatic man in the world. Some people will throw out outlandish figures saying it's worth much more...but the guy hasn't taken a damn regular season at bat yet. Mitigate the risk on such a high end piece of wax...hopefully people have learned from previous mistakes and the Taveras situation.

Thanks guys Its been a fun ride and this is a beautiful card in person! We have orders coming in usually Tuesdays, Weds and Fridays and most often there is a line waiting for what we have. Sometime I wish we could keep more on the shelf but also with the quality of wax that has been being released we cut back our orders a little. With Topps product being under our cost online the day of release it makes it hard to be able to run a profitable shop. If you are looking for something specific we can always order and hold it also most new release days we will have most products that are released from Baseball, Basketball and Football. That specific customer does he fair share of shelf cleaning as well lol

Keith Olberman will make his triumphant return after investing $75K in Alex Gordon error cards and buy this beauty. Book it

[QUOTE=ninjacookies;9019766]Ebay fees top out at $200 or so, I believe.


Last time I checked, eBay fees are 10 percent of what an item sells for with no cap. I sold something for almost $3000 and was charged 10 percent in fees. It use to be 250 but that has changed.

I thought you were on some personal crusade against Topps and refusing to buy any wax from them.

For some reason this reminded me of the part in requiem for a dream when the heroin gets delivered to the back of the grocery store

Of course maybe Neuhart Cards has proof otherwise showing the same guy pulled both cards but until then. I 100% believe it to be untrue.

nope. Actually, I was given some wrong info at the beginning of my research. I am wrong. It really was the same guy who pulled both.

Needless to say I am stunned.

Ya know, you open and open and open and pray and pray and pray that just once you pull a card that could pay off a car, or a credit card, or a surgery, and you know the odds are astronomical, but there's always that one shot. Just once you want it, just to feel it once.

To imagine that, no matter how much he opened, one person pulled both the Bryant and Buxton superfractor autographs is just so painful. How can that go to one person?

Man.

LOL I agree Bronco he actually said to me after he pulled it that he can't believe he did and that he felt he didn't deserve to. Also said he isn't sure if he can happily rip anymore Bowman after pulling that card.

Maybe I'm in the minority. I'm just hoping for a hit that's pays for the box or case

yep the plan is to finish paying off his student loans with it in the long run. He is not hurting for money by any means though lol 6 figured would be an easy guess on the estimate per year. Been very lucky obviously with hits and slips a lot of stuff to roll over the money

Tell him that I will gladly take the card off his hands. I feel like I deserve it
