that flawless rpa from a page or two back is gorgeous @BucciMane

lamar is my only non-nba PC and I’ve got the rookie stained glass and kaboom both. need those prizm / obsidian color blasts from this year!

Thanks.

I'm trying to just go for PSA 10's or raw cards. I don't want to settle for and 8 or 9.

However, I did buy a Herbet PSA 9 last week. That and my Lamar should be arriving Monday.

That’s been my approach too. Raw can be a crapshoot but my inner penny-pincher gets the better when it comes to slabs.

Gotta get out more. eBay is taxing. BO is what it is. Haven’t figured out how to navigate IG well. What’s the deal with what I’m reading about COMC? They really taking a year to ship?
Could be. I haven't bought anything from ages.

Also, any Kyler, Lamar, or Mahomes tie dye cards you like? I'm interested in any PSA 10 or raw cards that would be worth a bid or buy.


Also, is there a reason that some of the Lamar cards I'm seeing went for MORE one year ago or so than people are asking for now? Every other rookie QB card I've seen has been the opposite, like most cards.

The guy selling this on Ebay is looking for $1,999. I know you said $1,100 or so would be decent value, but I wouldn't mind spending a little more. He's rejected my offers up to $1,150.......

@Regular_P

What do you think of this card? Worth even making an offer on? As I said before, I want to hold off on buying anything high end for a month or so, but if the price is right, I could pull the trigger.

2017 Select Field Level Tie-Dye Prizm Patrick Mahomes II ROOKIE RC /25 PSA 10 | eBay

That sold a couple months ago in a PWCC auction for $25K. That's one of his key rookie cards.

That Lamar Tie-Dye I linked a little ways up. Auction still has a couple more days. :yeshrug:

Lamar's cards went down because he came back to earth last season after his MVP campaign. All young players have price swings and if they struggle for a little bit or have a "down" season, prices will reflect that. People are still buying into the "what if" with all these young QBs, including Mahomes.

Before last season, Lamar Jackson's National Treasures RPA was selling for more than Russell Wilson's. That's insane but also how the card market works. Established Hall of Famers have a certain ceiling until they start to rack up more rings.

If any of these young QBs (Allen, Jackson, Herbert, Burrow, Murray, Mayfield, etc.) have slow starts this year, it'll take a while to recover. Think how quickly things have fallen apart for Goff and Wentz. Now their RCs are dirt cheap even though one went to a Super Bowl and the other was on his way to an MVP before he got injured.

Pretty good chance of it, especially if Denver makes a run in the playoffs.

We've all taken Ls on cards we've bought. Just comes with the territory.

Now that I mentioned it, I just looked up some Goff rookies. I think I'm gonna go after a couple since he's the Lions QB. I never bought a Stafford either. :skip:

This the Lamar Jackson one you are referring too?

Also, I don't think I'm going to buy many Herbert's, Burrow's, Tua's, or Hurts cards. I think it's too big of a risk, especially with the division each of them are in. If they aren't winning, then their value won't be as high. I expect Jackson to bounce back and Kyler to continue to improve. I could be wrong, but I think the risk/reward is higher with them.

I will be getting a lot of Mac Jones cards though.:blessed:.
