This card.


In 2015 I bought a graded 3 Topps 55 Clemente for $380. I sold it a year later for $460. Now that I am rebuilding my set I can't get a 3 under $1000...on a routine basis. Do an Ebay search...it's crazy...several in the last couple weeks for around $1300. I was tracking this grade in 2016 and most were around $400 to $600 and I was lucky with my $380. I was pleased I made a profit at the time, but wow. If I was investing $1000 I would buy the best Clemente RC I could find.


I've done best by identifying the card I want, and being PATIENT...buying well is the best way to profit if thats what your looking for (I really don't). Going after the best BIN and you'll over pay. I'm a night owl, best buys are those auctions that end in the middle of the night or really early in the morning. Bought some killer Mantles that way. Pick your card...and scan daily...it's a sickness as MANY people here know...lol.
