...and the onslaught of reasons why it didn't sell for as much...at the top of the toppiest market in history.
I don't usually look for investment ideas around cardboard..but when I do, I use the collective brains of net54! A private sale 2 years ago does not a market make.

An SGC 3 sold in REA in May of 2008 for $517k. Last night, in another public auction, an SGC 3 sold $7.2mm. That is a 13x multiple in 15 years. No justifications needed, only facts. 44% over 2 years in a private sale or 13x over 15 years in a public sale is a great result.

I promise you, and you can take this to the bank, those serious vintage sports card collectors that can afford one of these will rue the day that they did not bid at least one increment higher in last night’s REA auction. Maybe the winner was going to be willing to spend whatever it would take to get that card but we’ll never know as they ended up getting it at a huge bargain price.
If I am wrong here, I really feel sorry for the owners of T206 Wagners and ultra high grade 52T Mantles as they will surely be in for drops in value along the lines of PSA 10 Jordans. Last edited by bcbgcbrcb; 12-04-2023 at 06:54 AM. |
