Default WOW - The prices of baseball related cigarette packs are through the roof.

Posted By: Jon Canfield

On the main board, we've recently been discussing how much some cards seem to be selling for as of late. This seems to ahve crossed over to packs, too. I know not many collect tese, but there are a good number on this board - myself, Leon and Henry included. 6 months ago, Sweet caporal and Piedmont packs (the most common of all) could be bought for under $50.00 each. Now, look at these prices?!

$638.00 - http://cgi.ebay.com/PIEDMONT-CIGARETTES-CARDBOARD-SAMPLE-PACK-1910-FULL_W0QQitemZ110138016293QQihZ001QQcategoryZ44QQr dZ1QQcmdZViewItem

$122.00 (and still going) - http://cgi.ebay.com/Piedmont-Cigarettes-1910-Original-Pack-of-10_W0QQitemZ200121685628QQihZ010QQcategoryZ44QQrdZ 1QQcmdZViewItem

I'm just a little surprised!

As the auction pictures show, the Piedmont pack has already been opened. So I somehow take that price as an aberation or the result of bidders who assumed it was unopened. I find it hard to believe you could ordinarily sell an opened Piedmont pack for that much.

Though I don't consider $100 for a nice looking cardless pack unreasonable. I think getting them for under $50 is cheap. I sold a bunch of cardless Sweet Caporal packs a number of years back, and they fetched in the $75-$110 range.

Ongoing eBay auction for pack or I would include the link....Buyer wanted to get the "inside scoop" on a material fact the seller may have neglected...........
Q: Could you please try looking through the loose straps or slits to verify if a card is inside? Let me know please. Thanks! Kurt

good stuff if you think about it
