Default Isn't this cheap for a Green Cobb

Since acquiring a nice green Cobby I have been watching their pricing. It seems it's all over the board. This one seemed unusually low. Thoughts?

https://www.ebay.com/itm/35358179705...p2047675.l2557

and here is mine I paid quite a bit more for...(and still very happy with it)

Nice card Leon

In my opinion when it comes to Green Cobb's, condition is key as there isn't a shortage of them in the market. Crease free, centered examples are still bringing top dollar no matter the slab, no matter the grade (Psa & Sgc)

The example in your link is a creased rough copy thus the ending price. Eye appeal on Green Cobb's is king which trumps all when considering value.

At least it does for me

Thanks Tony and I agree on eye appeal. Mine came from someone who has a good eye for eye appeal.

Prices are definitely down. Not a green, but there was a decent PSA 1 Bat on that sold last week for $1800

That whole auction had really low pricing. I picked up a couple that were 30-40% less than what I expected to pay. Pricing is down but not like that. I think it was because it ended during the National. There were other Cobbs that went low. I think a Bat on 3 went for $4200, it was on the low end of a 3 but still a 3.

Leon,

Certainly seems a bit low in my eyes also. So many likely steered clear due to the Mc qualifier. Image and registration is outstanding.

I wasn't talking about mine, which I will always be happy with the price I paid, but the one in the link that was an SGC 2 which went for under 6k.

Default Cobb

I think the one on eBay slipped by. Yours is nicer.

That card on Ebay went cheap by recent standards. It's only one sale, so it's too early to call it a correction, but its possible some of the steam has gone out of the surge in Cobb prices. At least for the lower grade Cobbs.

A nice Psa 4.5 Red Cobb portrait ended last night on Ebay for just under $15K.

Sharp Cobb examples which have eye appeal have not lost any steam in my opinion.

My two cents!
