Cards as investments
One would like to think cards are investments. Everyone is willing to talk about the good buys/sells. But not as often do you hear the not good buys/sells.
Last year I took losses on two cards purchased a while back. I sold a 1935 Diamond Stars Jimmy Foxx PSA 8 - through ebay for a loss. And I sold a T206 Cobb Green PSA 5 for a loss - through Robert Edward auction.
These cards are "supposed" to be higher end vintage quality HOF'ers in semi-high demand, just like cards folks here recommend for investments. Still chalked up the losses nonethless.
And yes, I have had a few positive transactions as well.
Just food for thought,
Steve
