Waiting to put a last second bid in on this Lamar Tie-Dye card. I'd be willing to go up to $3,000, but I think I can get it for less. It's at $2,000 with about 15 minutes left...........

Didn't end up winning it. When I kept clicking to increase my max bid in the final seconds, I didn't realize how much of a jump it was. It went from $2,250 to $3,950 in a split second. I do wish I won, but I'm fine with not spending $4,000 on it.

Yeah, if you go after a big card like that. A lot of people will snipe at the last second with a really high bid. No point in going up incrementally.

What is your opinion on the value comparison between PSA 10, BSG 10, and a BSG 9.5? I was reading from some that BSG 9.5 are definitely more valuable than PSA 9? Also, is there a black and gold label for BSG? I see varying opinions from people, but obviously it seems most say PSA 10 is the best you can get out of any, but a BSG 9.5>PSA 9?

So, I got my Lamar Kaboom in the mail today. My best cards that I've gotten over the past two months are the ones I've bought on Ebay. I got a Jordan Love Flawless BSG 8.5 and a Patrick Mahomes Gold Optic /10 from one of the breaks I did, but that's really it for those.


My best cards are the ones in bold.

Let me know what you think.:manny:.



These are the ones I've gotten in an auction or best offer on Ebay:


2020 Prizm Jalen Hurts Auto RC #/49 Purple Power PRIZM 3 color RPA SSP Case Hit | eBay (I likely overpaid, but it was my first card I bought on Ebay)

Jalen Hurts Origins Autograph On Card Auto Eagles Rookie PSA BGS Rdy Rare RA—JH | eBay (Bought two of these Hurts cards)

Jerry Jeudy 2020 Panini National Treasures Rookie Patch Autograph 74/99 BRONCOS | eBay (Jeudy)

KYLER MURRAY 2020 PANINI NATIONAL TREAUSRES PEERLESS SIGNATURES AUTO | eBay (Might have overpaid. I thought this was 2019. I should have paid closer attention)

CEEDEE LAMB 2020 NATIONAL TREASURES ROOKIE PATCH AUTO /99 CROSS OVER | eBay (I like the look of this Lamb card a lot)

2019 National Treasures Kyler Murray GOLD NFL Gear Trio Patch Auto /25 | eBay (2019 Kyler Murray National Treasures on card auto)

2020 National Treasures Rookie NFL Gear Signature Combos /99 Jerry Jeudy S5920K | eBay (Was only $50 for this Jeudy National Treasures card.:yeshrug:)

2019 Panini One Kyler Murray Encased 2-Color Rookie Patch Auto RPA #/25 | eBay (I wish I noticed the little blemish on the card before I bought it that @Regular_P noticed. I still like the card though)

2020 Donruss Optic Justin Herbert Blue Prizm Rookie Auto /75 RC PSA 9/10 | eBay (Justin Herbet on card rookie auto PSA 9. I was going to go for a PSA 10, but they were significantly more, so I passed.)

2018 Panini Flawless Sapphire Lamar Jackson ROOKIE RC PATCH AUTO 02/10 PSA 10/10 | eBay (2018 Lamar Jackson Panini Flawless on card rookie auto PSA 10/DNA10. This is my favorite one)

2018 Panini KABOOM! #LJ Lamar Jackson Ravens RC Rookie PSA 10 GEM MINT RARE SSP | eBay (2018 Lamar Jacskon Kaboom! PSA 10)

@Regular_P

I'm looking at this card, but I do have a question about these auctions.

This is the card I'm going to bid on.

2018 Select Field Level Silver Prizm Lamar Jackson ROOKIE #205 PSA 10 GEM MINT | eBay


Now, with that said, it looks like it's the same exact card and cert number from PSA that was won in auction recently. Does PWCC bid on cards as well, or is this people buying and then selling it to them?

PSA 10 >>>>> BGS 9.5 with rookie cards. I've seen some Kobes going for four times as much. The gap isn't as large post-rookie season but 10s are still the winner. BGS 10s generally have a premium over PSA 10s but not always. The gap has closen though black label BGS 10s generally command a massive premium, which I would never pay.

This is why you always go after singles instead of wax. Break once in a while but it's always smarter to pick the exact cards you want.

@Regular_P

I'm looking at this card, but I do have a question about these auctions.

This is the card I'm going to bid on.

2018 Select Field Level Silver Prizm Lamar Jackson ROOKIE #205 PSA 10 GEM MINT | eBay


Now, with that said, it looks like it's the same exact card and cert number from PSA that was won in auction recently. Does PWCC bid on cards as well, or is this people buying and then selling it to them?

I think I got a decent deal on this card. I got it for about $1,200. It looks like it recently went for about $1,600 in two different auctions for PSA 10's.

2018 Select Field Level Silver Prizm Lamar Jackson ROOKIE #205 PSA 10 GEM MINT | eBay

Someone probably shilled it and didn't pay. If I coulda responded earlier I woulda said no way pay $1,600 on it but you got it a decent bit less than that so it's all good.

All I can say is that Lamar better not suck this season.:pachaha:.

Nothing wrong with going all in. Hope it works out for you. If your gut tells you he's gonna be a superstar, trust it. :yeshrug:

I appreciate you giving us newer collectors advice on what cards to buy.

A lot of collectors lose money because they don't understand how top heavy this hobby is. Only a handful of players in a handful of sets really hold / increase in value.

Picked up a couple more Zions. There's a few more I want to track down but I'm happy with my start. I'm gonna try to cross the Blank Slate at PSA.

I see these cards I want, but I have to control myself and not just throw all of this money at every card I see.:damn:.


But, if my golf bets hit for the PGA Championship.................:ohlawd:.

It is. Most I've spent on a card. :francis:

I'm in the process of consolidating my collection.

I looked up the cert number on PSA. Were you the one that bought it in April?:damn:.


I can understand if that's the most you've spent on one. Wasn't sure if that was your normal range for buying.:pachaha:.
