Thanks for the update on the sales, Ronnie. I think by the looks of the report, it somewhat confirms that if really depends on who wants the card bad enough. You have a HOF'er that sold a year ago for nearly half the price of what a common did a half a year later...doesn't make sense to me. Even more proof that the SMR can't be trusted and we pay what we are willing to fork up for a card.

On a little harsher back that you don't see rise up very often, people will definitely pay up for something they are not sure they will see for a long time...especially a mid to high grade. Can't say I blame them.

206's are on fire!!!

I have two Cycle 460s, both graded 4.0 (Doolan Batting and Magee with Bat). Don't yet have a Mcquillan bat. But I never realized that the Cycle 460s were a condition rarity.

Could this simply be an outlier set of increases?

Hi Marc,

Cycle 460's are more scarce than people think. I've seen 10 Cycle 350's for every 1 Cycle 460 over the last 20 years.

will be interesting to see if a thread like this will raise the prices of cycle 460's even higher going forward.
