and still not convinced of some buying group out there. the prices that have gone up are completely across the board, on every level and cover every faucet of the sports cards arena. not just ryan, rose, clemente, koufax, etc.
it's bond/mcgwire tiff rcs, 86-90ish fleer basketball cards and boxes, key rcs and short prints, just about any centered card, cards that break the grade (leon's robinson, the 52 mays), football and hockey cards, don't know about much modern but from briefly pursuing those sections the same explosive growth is happening there as well.
maybe people are noticing and crediting that it's a viable platform to park some money while having fun doing it. or maybe the hobby is simply just healthy. and of course if someone sells something and makes a bunch of extra $X....what's he probably gonna do w. a lot of that $X? hopefully save some of it but probably dump it right back into something else...

now go back and reread this thread pete. bread crumbs were certainly left everywhere and in every thread.
nothing but the truth was stated. i can assure you these cards wont be back up for sale anytime soon.
no one else bought them and they all were 100% legit sales...here they all are along w/ some that didn't get spotted:
****IMAGE POOF****
TO INFINITY AND BEYOND!!!
