By the way, I just bought the courtside black white gold shimmer 1/1 Ant for 6500 psa 9. That card is also level 2 premier level PSA 9, not courtside so, a 1/1 premier is worth way less than 10-11k.

It’s gold but it’s also concourse level. Even though all 3 levels are # to 10, concourse and premier level are far less desirable than courtside and the concourse level and premier level are ubiquitous. Courtside are printed at 2 per hobby box, vs 12 prizms. Aka courtside are 6x less common than Prizms and you are guaranteed 2 courtsides not even courtside prizms. Courtside select are the most underrated cards in the hobby.

Geoff you can always stay strong man. You don't have to give in. Your cards are worth so much more. People are willing to pay for those cards. You shouldn't give into some of the numbers these want on their cards. Your cards have actual comps and their dont. Don't give into comps and trade your valuable cards with strong sales and comps for these risky cards. These guys are buying those cards for half the price and trading them for double if not triple the value they purchased them for. Geoff stay strong on your numbers they are always going to come up and if not they can find someone else to sell those cards too. You should always be lower on the modern stuff and higher on your kobe stuff. Don't give in man. Don't be nervous to say ill pass.

[@carolinatarheels7903]

People make up fake prices on those early error cards trying to trick stupid people or make their own fake “error” cards because they have print dots. Fake and not really error cards. Even the legit error cards are not that hard to find. The hardest Pro Set error card is the 1990 Dexter Manley drug card and the 1990-91 Pro Set Hockey Paul Gillis bloody nose card and even those are nowhere near $4,000 cards.

I just bought a 1983 topps baseball full set for 50$. I would say 5 or 6 have a potential of getting a psa 10, not the Gwyn unfortunately. The Boggs looks like it could fetch a 9. The Sandberg, Rickey Henderson, Nolan Ryan and a couple HOF look like very promising for 10s. What is a good time to sell older cards like those if they have a high grade?

[@dwiii1635]

Only 10% of the Henderson's and 9% of the Sandberg's have been graded PSA 10. Good luck. Looks like PSA is pop controlling those cards hard.

[@brockman562]

I would have countered Roth aka the Howell/Ridder flipper by saying the Edwards card isn't a PSA 10, but a 9 and PSA 10 is more appealing to buyers.

[@zachpierce641]

People over, thinking some of these trades. If you think Ja is down cause he’s in trouble and it’s the off-season don’t sell or trade. Just hold onto it . Don’t expect somebody to speculate it’s going to go back up. People want to trade their stuff and get value just assuming things are going to happen . Doesn’t matter if your card is going to go up or down in the future. What is it worth now?

[@nathanielthespanielcardsbr2761]

App idea Geoff: Top 10. Every table at the national has a “top 10” digital showcase of their most unique/rare cards in an app. It just shows the card and the booth number. No chat, bid, bin - just a showcase. This does 2 things. 1) Allows more visibility for the seller, and 2) lets the buyers find some unicorns to go visit and make a play on. Not for highly liquid or low value cards. Just whales. Just give me 3% if you sell it 😏

[@nathanielthespanielcardsbr2761]

The 3% comment was for me if you license the app and have a fee (not for any of the vendors or buyers on an actual transaction).

[@nathanielthespanielcardsbr2761]

And it was In jest. I actually like the idea of the app - and it’d be great for vendors to use preshow with other vendors.
