Here's the state of the hobby.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/22449097676...p2047675.l2557 Compare to two on Jan. 31 in Goldin at 738K each. Only a drop of 557K or whatever. Let's spin this one, shall we? Or did we (some of we) just get fooled yet again by sales talk, manipulation, and fraud?

They didn't need to. Probably dumped a bunch of them at 400-600.
And my guess is these will come down even more.

Current PSA 10 population = 318 Current PSA 9 population = 2787 Total current PSA population = 21,791 The highest sale as of January 2020 (1.5 years ago) was under 40K There have been 61 PSA 10 sales (according to PSA auction database) since January 2020 (I did not look for repeat sales on the same certs) There would in theory need to be 319 people willing to pay "market" price to maintain a particular value - I suspect we will see this card come down considerably more.

Howard yeah it's going to keep falling towards its "natural" level I think. A lot of folks out there who drastically overpaid, I think, believing the world was somehow very different now. We've seen this film before.

I would like to be one, I am guessing they bought them in order to create a false price to sell their inventory of others for much higher than they otherwise could have. Just a guess of course. Assuming they actually bought them, that is, which I'm willing to do.

I am suggesting your reaction to feel badly for the winner or winners may be wrong.

Yeah I thought they stayed up for 90 days or something. Maybe Brentsy has wondrous magical powers.

Golly...
He is talking about his industry... not about my hobby. He's talking about making money on cards... I like collecting cards from players of days gone by, making money on them isn't important. He wants new money buying cards, and then more new money buying cards and memorabilia, so everything is always costing more and more. And he seems to think that if he says something twice, that it's more believable. OR true. It is more believable. It is true. He is telling his truth, he told it twice. Twice! It's nuts. Pardon me while I have a sip of bottled water. |
