I agree. I had my stuff a day early and posted to ebay same night. I sold a Thaddeus Young 1/21 rookie (no patch or auto) for $107. I couldn't believe it. The place I acquired the case got several more and they were all progressively worse then the one I bought

The more people getting horrible cards, the better the ones that are still in boxes out there.. Does that make sense?

I'm looking into buying Premier now, I'm thinking It's just like exquisite but with numbered cases.

I believe UD prices the BKB Exquisite around $500 every year. Even the first 03-04 Exquisite was first priced at $500 (kicking myself for not buying it when a dealer was begging me to). Like last year, I believe when the hype settles, the price will go down

This may have been overproduced...but the main fact is that basketball is a soft market right.

1st card was Dwayne Wade base
2nd Nate "Tiny" Archibald 3 color signed patch card #d 49/50
3rd Richard Jefferson quad signed patch card #d 7/10
4th Mike Conley signed rookie #d 225/225
5th Nick Young rookie card #d 21/99

I'm a little disappointed with my 1st box of Exquisite... I had better luck with Upper Deck Black at 1/2 the price...Any input would be appreciated..thanks

Yeah, I bet I could sell my two cases for breakeven or a small loss - Durant RC Auto'd patch, Pierce/KG auto'd 6/10, LBJ and Kobe bases, Brewer Year One 1 of 10, Kobe patch #'d 25, Gervin auto'd patch, Horford RC auto'd patch, BDavis/AlH auto'd patch to 5, Walton auto'd. Certainly not a 50% loss like some people say they're taking.


If you buy one of anything you can get a horrid box/case - my first Black was Laimbeer and Jason Smith - just putrid.
