Not really. It's the same card as hundreds more with a little bit different foil. It's like the guy on ebay with the sort of brown old mill. There are lots of t cards just as rare if you are into that sort of thing. The only difference is the Superfractor is a manufactured rarity.

I have a 2014 Panini Golden Age Black Border Parallel Jackie Gleason card that is 1/1. Maybe I'll put it up on the Bay for say, oh, $19,999.00.

He is probably the next Alex Gordon. If he reaches his potential he might even be the next Evan Longoria. But here's the problem......
The last Evan Longoria Bowman Chrome Blue Refractor Auto RC graded 9.5 sold for $450 The last Kris Bryant Bowman Chrome Blue Refractor Auto RC graded 9.5 sold for $1550 So logic tells me: If Kris Bryant reaches his ceiling, his cards will probably lose 70% of their value in the next 5-10 years. And that's my BEST CASE scenario.

Trey,
I think you hit it exactly. No upside. And no one is buying a card like this as just a card for a collection. I collected modern and still do a little with my kids, but it all does the same thing, peaks highish and then dives as the next best thing shows up. sure there are some anomalies, but few and far between

No, it's like buying a 1/1 Pinto for the same price as a Ferrari and reasoning that it should be worth as much because it's unique. It's still a crappy Pinto under the hood. 1/1 Michael Jordans don't sell for 90k. This is a 15-25k card that will most likely be worth 10-20% of that in a few years. What do you think that Strasburg Superfractor is worth?

[QUOTE=vtgmsc;1398434]You should go back to school and quit worrying about 1 of 1s. They are obviously making you crazy.
For the money this card would sell for, you are better off putting that money in a proven Hofer Ruth, Gehrig, Cobb, Wagner, etc or a 52 Topps Mantle. Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. This hobby's recent history is filled with Kris Bryants, players who are hyped before their rookie season and fail to live up to the hype. Not a single one has lived up to the hype in the last 20+ years. Last edited by rats60; 04-05-2015 at 08:13 PM. |

I enjoy collecting modern cards just about as much as I do pre-war; I just don't spend near the same amount of money on them. But you really don't have to. I've found some very active sites where people trade modern cards. So I buy a box now and then, keep the ones I want, and trade as many of the others as I can. Just like here I've made some friends along the way. Believe it or not there are a lot of modern collectors who couldn't care less about long term value. They collect there favorite team/player/set or whatever just for fun and because they love baseball and cards.
