Is Bowman Chrome Big Enough to Depress Sales of other items?

frozenntimesports · 08-19-2007, 09:25 AM

Hi all,

Was thinking of listing 100 items, baseball, football, and a couple of hockey cards and sets today. I was thinking with Bowman Chrome releasing this week, maybe its not a great time to list. A lot of what I have to list is 2005 Updates and Highlights prospect-type cards.

Do you think this can depress other baseball sales and if so, this may be a good buying opportunity.

Thoughts?

I wouldn't worry about the football, but I would off a week or two on the baseball and hockey. People are also still filling in Allen and Ginter too remember....and hockey is just dead now, until camp starts.

I was just going thru 2006 football stuff and will be listing some lower end items. Football is back on the radar and there are a lot of names that are being talked about from pre-season practices & games. I don't think that Bowman Chrome baseball sales will hurt the die hard football prospectors. I think that it will be the other way around though in a month, with football sales creeping up and BC market flooding of Ebay hurting Chrome's bottom line.

Hockey seems to be the same as always. Other than the flood of The Cup right now, it's the same as it always is. Inflated.
