1955 Topps Roberto Clemente PSA 8 RC
 

It's been a while since I posted here so just wanted to share my Clemente. Thanks for the look :-)

The back

Definitely worth sharing. Incredible looking card. Congrats.

nice card...36k Goldin Auction December of 2016... a nice price versus many of the prior sales..

Indeed. Selling High end vintage between Thanksgiving and Christmas is never advised as a seller. :p

...drool...

That Card Is Sweet !! Wow

So beautiful

Wow!

So November and December is not good to sell. I heard it was bad to sell either a month before the National or a month or so after, I forgot. So i guess the other 7 or so months is good to sell high end stuff

Beautiful card. Thanks for sharing.

Zowie!!!!!

That's an absolutely beautiful card. Thanks for sharing!

WOW!!

very nice, great looking card

I'd like to echo everyone else's sentiment! Very drool-worthy!

Well, my wife gave birth to our second child a few days ago. Time to move on. This beauty will be featured starting April 2nd by PWCC. Bid early and often...Just 15 Clemente's have a higher grade ;-)

Congratulations!:)

Not that I will be able to afford it, but I will watch anyways.

Good luck.

Drool. I wonder where the hammer will land on this beauty.

Thanks much!

When the card sold for 36k 4 months ago there were 15 or less clementes with a higher grade. I would imagine the same people will be bidding on this one. However as you said perhaps December wasnt a good time to sell. Good luck with the sale maybe it gets to 80k and now you have college paid for your 2nd child.

^^^^agreed^^^^ :-). Here's the provenance written by PWCC:

Nice write up!

I hope that card does very well for you!

I appreciate the kind thoughts! Thank you.

Good luck, that's a beauty!

Thanks! Bid early and often...Goes live tomorrow, 4/2!

First off, the card looks like a stunner. This same card was sold 4 months ago at Goldwin for a pretty fair price. (compared to the fraudulent prices it sold for last may/june) If you decide to flip it you could make a nice return.

card already at 32k, the plan of buying the card to flip looking good thus far...

For those, besides me, who want to follow along.


? Not sure what is going on? Viglink Shopping comes up when I copy and paste the link?

here ya go....

Your link does the same thing, Leon.

Does this link work for anyone? Maybe I am just having trouble on my end?

Also, when I click the PWCC header at the top of the page/site, I get a popup saying it has been moved permantly?

Thank you for posting the link Leon :-)

I'm obviously hoping for a decent sale price but will accept the final hammer. Such a wide range on this card is what makes it fascinating to me. The last PSA 9 sold for whopping $478,000k in 2016. PSA 7's are going for about $9,000. Where does that put an 8 in today's market? Ah, the beauty of an ever changing hobby. :)

Link working just fine for me Irv. Perhaps your cpu is not allowing pop-ups from this site?

Something is definitely going on as I have never had this problem before:confused:

Thanks for letting me know. :)

Edit: I had to delink from Viglink shopping? Said it was I had left from my previous site? No idea what I accidentaly clicked on but it's time to do a thorough cleaning!

You're just having trouble on your end Irv. Just go to eBay and enter the title of the card and search that way.

Well, after searching and trying various things, I can't seem to get rid of Viglink?

I must have clicked on something and now, whenever I click on a link, such as posted in this thread, (E-Bay link) I get a viglink home page first.:mad:

It is frustrating to say the least, but it sounds like lots of forums, companies, and the like use it to generate further income. I clicked on the PWCC forum link above, found the Clemente, copied then pasted it.
When I went to look at it, the viglink came up instead.:confused:
I hit disable within the link and it will work but if you log out and come back to it, there it is again! :mad:
If anyone knows how to get rid of it, I am all ears! I have searched and searched and done numerous things within my ability, but so far I have had zero luck. Frustrated big time!

Edit: Just in case anyone is wondering, I use Google Chrome and have Windows 10.

I'm on a Mac and the viglink is killing me. No matter how many times I empty caches, throw preferences in the trash and delete cookies it pops right back up when I hit the link in this thread. Argh!!!!!

Is this new to you, Darren, or have you had this problem for a while?

First time for me was today, and it was the first time I have ever heard of it.

From the searching I did, I seen it has been around since 09-10.

I clicked on other E-Bay links within this site, and I get the same thing!

Still plugging away trying to figure it out but I am not very tech savy so I am basically forging ahead with blinders on. :mad:

You guys might try this link. Not sure if it will work for you but it's worth a shot:

http://www.viglink.com/opt-out/

It only works temporarily. If you log out, or clear your cookies/history, it is there the next time and you have to repeat the whole process over again.

Many have said the site is malware and is malicious. I wrote the company, via the e-mail in their link, but of course it comes back as undeliverable! :mad:

Still trying to figure this out?

I can open any link in this site without issue, REA, Goldin, etc, but when I go to open an E-Bay link, I get the Viglink pop up/screen instead.

If I go to E-Bay through Leon's links in the top left, or go to E-Bay on my own, I can open it, view a listing/card no problem but if I copy the URL or the info in the tool bar to paste it here, when I open that link I get the viglink pop up/page every time? :confused:

I have copied and pasted the same ads in my home e-mail and I can open then no problem. It is only here for some reason, and I am having a bugger of a time figuring it out?

Ends tonight!

Nice you made a few easy K in just a few months!. I assumed you started the thread knowing you were going to sell the card and it worked out. congrats..
