Have been back in the hobby now probably 3-4 years now. Have noticed especially lately how much brand new product sells for in singles which is great. My wonder is, will some or most of these new cards ever be worth the 1st prices they are selling for again? 🤔
Typically a good rule of thumb is that the product and prices for singles of that product are going to be the highest when it is directly released… but that is definitely not ALWAYS true. That’s a whole subject and you could talk about that for hours, but in general the prices directly after release are some of the highest prices you’ll see. Some examples of when they aren’t might be with Jordan love, or cards of players that do amazing things for their sport, such as Jackie Robinson, Michael Jordan, Patrick Mahomes, Tom Brady, Mike Trout, heck people didnt even know some baseball prospects like Acuna I believe and now he’s one of the hottest selling guys in baseball.. he’s cooled off but
Yea I had originally seen the first like 1/20th of the box before offering; still some nice filler for the auctions i run on whatnot. Can’t go too wrong, especially hoping that the market starts to bounce back with preseason amongst us
Thanks for posting another video! Sometimes less is more. I rather have the ability to cherry pick and pay a bit more than buy a large amount for cheaper. It's the economy of time.
Most definitely agree with that! I’m personally okay with the other way around as long as the inventory seems like stuff I should be able to sell on whatnot, and or if I’m able to prepare and plan for preseason hype for nfl! There’s some nice prospects like Michael Wilson, and certain other players that people don’t talk too much about if at all that could start out hot. It’s all just either filler for whatnot, or for setting up at my first card show! (Which should hopefully hopefully be in September… [not the Sacramento show])
I am not super local to that show no, I have to drive about 2+ hours to get to there. Honestly there’s finally going to be a card show that’s hosted near me hopefully in September… I’m hoping to have that be my first one I set up at :) but I didn’t have a card shop near me until about a year and some ago, now there’s one dedicated sports card shop that has other card games also, and then 2 other new shops that offer sports cards also but aren’t there only focus :) it’s expanding more and more where I’m at which is nice! Even I’m hoping we have more shows
