Eh - difference in opinion, possibly. There will always be a market for iconic vintage. There have been collectors after certain cards for decades, even lifetimes. There will always be a base demand for a Goudey Ruth or Cracker Jack Shoeless Joe - or even a T206 Mordecai Brown or '41 Playball Ted Williams - even during a recession. Modern? Many of the hot rookies, insert or chase cards in modern hold the attention span of the masses barely long enough until the next patch card to chase or must-have draft pick? People are dropping $100s & $1,000s on patch cards of players who are barely all-stars or who haven't even played yet (Jasson Dominguez). Not every hot modern card is of Mike Trout, Michael Jordan & Derek Jeter. Last edited by troutbum97; 01-31-2021 at 11:28 AM. |

In 2010 or 2011, I purchased a raw T-206 green portrait Ty Cobb card for right around $450.00. It is a beater and would probably grade an A or a 1. My card is at least intact.
Almost a decade later, approximately 60% of one (even with several creases) will probably blow past the price I paid for a whole one. I'll be monitoring this auction to see its final hammer price. With this market, I'll predict $750.00, and set the over-under at this price. What do you all think? Over or under $750.00? https://www.ebay.com/itm/RARE-1909-1...wAAOSw22FgFgWo |

Wow. I cannot get over this. It's literally a cut out, floating head, and seeing how this market is going, it's going to top 750.

I never knew there was a die cut version of the T206 set.

That is absolutely insane.
Is there any way that thing is worth 700$ ten years from now? Quote:

If It's worth 700 ten years from now, I will personally buy everyone in this thread a beer at wherever the 2031 National is being held

In the current Heritage Auction, I bid 130% over the last sales price (after buyer premium and taxes) and was outbid the same day.... there’s tons of time left and not a small $ card too!
Like housing, people are draining the supply and what few gems are out there are being overbid. Don’t know how I can buy another card at these conditions. Last edited by joshuanip; 02-07-2021 at 02:08 PM. |
