I sold a PSA 9 awhile back for $110, so you should at least get $150 on this one ... though mine was SP Autentic, not SS.

Overall I must say, I have not been too impressed with any of the breaks I have seen of this stuff - YET, I am still tempted to take a stab at striking gold with 1 big hit

That hurts! Hopefully they didn't use wasabi as the lube for that one!!

[JLR0747]

wow...that's really bad. Sorry dude

i wanted to take the gamble and well i didnt do as bad as i thought i would....

[armyatc22]

if u look at the players and the checklist i think i actually did better then a lot of cases that doesnt have a HUGE hit in them!!

I wasn't busting your chops, I just think that's a really bad break. At most your getting back $650, probably less. Hey, you win some and lose some.

This is what I like...hand packed, lol. Last one sold for like $60 but it was ungraded.

[endthecurse]

Wow... not sure which is more disappointing - that you had two of the same freakin' card in a hand-collated case or that none of the six cards was worth the price of a pack.

Just my opinion... 60% is, unfortunately, on the high side. $80 for the Tex, $55 for the Griese, $80 for the Yount, $150 on the Wright and $225 for the Duchenes... $590 (give or take 10%) on $1,300 or so.

Better luck next time.

Why don't you just go to FCB and PM him...he's on all the time and his UN is Leaf

Just send him the clips and see if he can do something for ya.

[armyatc22]

Pics updated in the main thread...thanks for the advice messier Ill prob do it!!

[cruiserdaddy7]

He said they were hand collated, not that he has a great memory. Sorry about your luck on the case, atleast it had to be a thrill hoping for the big hit.

[armyatc22]

Contacted him on FCB...not mad or anything just want to know what he thinks about 2 of the same exact cards being in the same case....

If I were him, I would ask you to send it back (since you have proof on video that you got 2 in one case) and he will send you a "random" sealed box for your troubles...you'll most likely a pull a BGS 10 Randal Grichuk Auto!

[bigsmoot2]

Ouch man, you win some and lose some!! Good luck on the resale, hopefully you re-coup a decent amount.
