I don't get why people are only looking at the monetary value of these trades. Sure, if the OP trades a $75 card for a $100 card then he gained $25 in value, but that's only half of the trade. On the other side of the trade, the trader got a card they valued more than the $100 card they gave up. Maybe they needed the card to complete a set, maybe they really like the player, or the team. Trades aren't only confined to their monetary value.

It's been fun to watch your progress towards your goal! I'm interested in seeing how close you get!!! Sorry for the garbage and grief you've been subjected to from other members. Too bad we're not more supportive of each other....

I am also enjoying this and wish you the best of luck on your journey. I appreciate your enthusiasm and willingness to go for it!!

I enjoy this thread as well and have enjoyed trading with Stephen. It's a shame that some people are just so negative.... when in the end.....it doesn't even pertain to them or affect them. I hope he gets his Mantle, or something close to it.

+1 I am very happy with the cards I bought from Stephen at an overall FAIR (emphasis on no charity on my part) and look forward to reading the updates as they are posted.

good luck with the journey

Thanks for all the support guys.

Looking to either sell or trade the rest of whats left. Some beauties available.

Once these are gone I will move on to phase two!

I will also reveal the starting price of the Walter Johnson

I think people are just jealous they didn't think of this

If you've seen the show on TV, you know that there are lots of reasons why people will trade/buy things that are worth more for something worth less. I don't see any reason why that should surprise people on here or upset them. Not everybody buys and sells solely based on value. They often have other wants / needs that are more important at that moment.

If you don't want to watch or play, then go ridicule someone somewhere else!
