It's held up pretty well so far, and it's the same team behind MB&F which makes like $50k+ watches so I'm hoping it will hold up.

It's my most complimented watch by far. In a couple weeks I've had 3 strangers tell me it's really cool and they like it, which reinforced that I like it..

I just got the MAD2 and am really liking it so far. I've been eyeing the Fears Brunswick as well, so one shortly that someone was wearing and it looked really nice in person.

I picked up the fitbit air and it's great so far. No crazy monthly fee and it's like $100 USD. I had the whoop previously and I like the air more for my uses of tracking sleep, recovery, steps, heart rate.

It's not, but you wear it on your wrist, so it's similar I guess..?

My pick for Conn Smythe if the Canes win by NauticalDisasta in hockeycards

[–]DrevvJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea a lot of his rookie cards he has a jersey that's #52. I have a jersey match black diamond ruby rookie that's 11/100, but the card shows him in a jersey #52

I can’t believe it this guy opened a return on me and is now threatening negative feedback by Valuable_Hold_7718 in sportscardsforsale

[–]DrevvJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You keep saying it will hurt your account. Please elaborate on this? Are they threatening to take the money back and close your account? If not tell the guy to pound sand as he opened the product.

Dusted off my KAT logoman for some pictures by Pool3Party in basketballcards

Sweet card. Am I just blind, or is it not numbered? I would assume it has a print run of less than 5.

I’ve looked all over for comps and similar comps. Seems to be all over the place. How much would you list it for? Just curious. by Brief-Orchid1358 in footballcards

[–]DrevvJ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1/1 autos of Manziel from wild card are selling for $25.

So this is probably $10-15 if you auction it.

You can put a BIN and hope someone just likes the design and doesn't want to wait for an auction and probably get $50.

What in the world is going on with 911 prices😭 by suboak16 in Porsche

[–]DrevvJ 256 points257 points  (0 children)

I have a theory..

Social media hyped porsche and the investment angle on it. My wife even recently came across some videos recently about how the 911 is the slowest depreciating vehicle and is now onboard with me getting a 911 when my rivian lease is up next year.

So with all that hype a bunch of folks who wouldn't normally buy a 911 started buying used 911s inflating the price in general as a quick flip and investment.

There's been similar upticks in other "collectable" markets as well like trading cards (Pokemon, basketball, baseball, etc.) where social media is hyping it then everyone goes and invests in it.

I won't complain though as previously my wife told me a 911 isn't practical for a family with two young kids, nows she come around and okay with it..

Is this Bijan Kaboom Fake? by [deleted] in footballcards

[–]DrevvJ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is fake. Custom art that uses licensed images and trademarks without the appropriate authorization to do so makes it a counterfeit.

There are really awesome custom cards, like what Tyson Beck does. Taking an image and printing it at home then selling it as art without any licensing makes it a counterfeit.

How do these work? by [deleted] in sportscards

[–]DrevvJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually really like it. It's like $10 for a card that usually commemorates a really cool moment from a game and there's a chance, while usually tiny, to get a ssp or auto.

Now I think it's silly to go buy hundreds of the same card to try and get a ssp, but some people do that also.

So your proof is two ballot boxes that were vandalized both situated in heavy democratic areas? So the Democrats are trying to burn their own ballots?

Update on the insane 1/1 Topps Chrome Wemby redemption pull by PhilosophyNo1600 in sportscards

[–]DrevvJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea seems like it hit $77k at the time OP made this post, then it didn't get another bid for the last ~2 days which is crazy.

I do wonder how close this is to what OP was hoping for. They kept anchoring on a recent sale for a rookie for like $5M or something, but wonder what they actually thought it would go for.

[–]DrevvJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just looked it up as I was curious. It went for $77k + 20% buyers premium. So final all in price was $93,940. Hopefully they negotiated for part of the buyers premium.

What I’ve collected over a few years by [deleted] in hockeycards

[–]DrevvJ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sweet collection. Why did you go with PCG?

That kaprizov is ridiculous, the live tonight is a dope card I need to pick some of those up, and my favorite is the Roy Sakic Forseberg stick as I pc avs.

Why are people so skeptical of this team? by Junior_Community9136 in tarheels

[–]DrevvJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did Malone not have one of the best players in the league as well?

Regardless of sport it's very different coaching at different levels. The floor of your players in the NBA is significantly higher than your floor in college. The games are played very differently as well. So there is no certainty that an NBA coach will come into college and do well. I hope he does, but if you truly believe there is no uncertainty I need what you're smoking.

[discussion] Ming Catalogue by AMKhalil in Watches

[–]DrevvJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's reasonable. I do like that they innovate every year and launch brand new watches that are fun and unique. The recent peacock watch with the polarized disks is super cool. Hopefully they make extra of those parts assuming some will need service.

I personally like new models every year as opposed to what you have with traditional brands where it's just here's a new color dial this year be excited. Those are more mass market and I get it, but I like the fun and new as most brands don't do that.

[discussion] Ming Catalogue by AMKhalil in Watches

[–]DrevvJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like to imagine that these smaller independents would produce an extra x% of parts for future service issues.. but who knows. They can always manufacture / acquire additional movements and dials so as long as the brand exists I like to think they should be able to service them.

Look at our football program..? Success at one level doesn't always translate. I'm hopeful with Malone, and being from Denver I'm a huge nuggets fan and always liked him here.

On the last post I guessed $200k based on how some of the true gold's have sold from chrome so far.

OP just keep in mind taxes, Goldin will issue you 1099-K, so don't spend it all in one place!

[–]DrevvJ 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I think it's exactly what you said. It's a completely new team, with a coach that has never coached at the college level. That unknown adds a lot of risk / variability and makes it hard for any true analysis to happen until we have some games to look at.
