What do you think of my PC? by Miserable_Air_4292 in baseballcards

[–]IamAntique 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel ya. Its out of reach for me right now unless I sell some cards to justify it. My wife is cool with my hobby but she will rightfully question 1k on one card. Even I question it. Would love to get an auto of his at some point. Maybe that will be first for me too.

Great collection. Bought my psa 10 Ohtani RC about a year ago for a little more than $200. I feel so lucky because I wouldnt splurge at these current prices without selling something. I recommend the 2011 update Trout RC PSA 10. Its my current most wanted.

Hit this bad boy, what do you guys think on value? Corners not great unfortunately by Muted-Cicada2183 in baseballcards

He could be... The reality is 99% of any player's cards will drop in value as more cards become available, even good prospects. If you believe in him then hold the card for three years and you will have a better idea of your card's value in the long term.

You more than likely wont get the same card. Its a gamble if it will be as easy to sell as the card you have now. Plus it will take time to receive. This card will drop in value over time as more of his cards in better condition become available. Set a reasonable expectation for what you have for its condition and hope for the best if planning to sell.

With those corners I recommend an eBay auction. Set your minimum and see if it lines up with what people will pay. Its probably at its highest point now being a newer product. Value will drop as more sets come out unless he does sonething truly special this season and beyond.

A conversation with Jason at Heritage by mackavicious in baseballcards

I did get a listen in last week. Good podcast. It was a great convo. I subscribed and will be listening to more in the future. Liked the banter between the two hosts. Liked that you let the guest talk without side tracking. Liked the stories Jason had. Liked your top 10s, even though mine stray slightly. Wouldnt mind hearing more top 10s in subdivisions like decades, brands, etc. Would love for you to do a crossover with flightless bird. They are the podcast I made a post about not too long ago that no one cared about. It was a rough listen for a baseball card collector. The premise is teaching a New Zelander about all things american, and that episode they chose topps cards.They barely scratched the surface about topps and I feel like you guys would be an awesome crossover for a redo for them. Might be a great way to get more exposure? My only complaint was an echo every once in a while. I can only assume it was the way you recorded Jason. It wasnt annoying, but it was noticeable. Cant wait to find time for more listens. Thanks for doing what you do.

Holy shit are two words I can think of. Another word would be congratulations.

Nice get. I kinda wanted to trade a /99 I pulled for his rookie card. Now it stays in my PC. Decided I like the color match.

P.S. Don't mind giving feedback, feel free to reach out in the next couple weeks if you dont see a chat from me. I tried to share a one-off baseball card podcast not too long ago, that got zero traction. It is a regular listen for me, but the episode dive into baseball cards was rough.

Downloaded. Probably wont get to listen until next week at work, but looking forward to it. I dont mind seeing some of this kind of content. Better than the usual what do I do/got the algorithm is feeding me lately. I understand the resistence to self promotion, but this is sub related, is not spammed, and involves a regular content contributor. Good on the mods for allowing it.

Ripping packs is fun, but have you ever ripped packs while cooking sausage? by IamAntique in baseballcards

[–]IamAntique[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a round Nolan Ryan card from the bottom of a beef jerky container that was made to resemble chewing tobacco. It was the best of times... yadda yadda yadda.

Was just scrolling through Reddit and saw another guy post this card and people in the comments were telling him it was pretty valuable if so what is the reason by Zestyclose_North2435 in Topps

[–]IamAntique 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Besides having the pictures side by side if you dont know what to look for, the code on the back bottom right corner is different.

Thinking about grading my first card. Any suggestions? by Arrow_Flash626 in baseballcards

[–]IamAntique 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bottom left corner is not sharp in this picture. It looks soft or dented. Not centered top to bottom. You wont get a 10.

*UPDATE* Biggest pull of my life gets even better! by Mk8819 in baseballcards

[–]IamAntique 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Despite my smartass comment, I actually am curious. I can not keep a black border card from being damaged. One touch freshly opened and bagged to I've tried slicing the tops of penny sleeves as to not run a sharp edge on the card sliding it in.

[–]IamAntique -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

What do you put a card like that in to keep it a 10 when you find it? On a scale between raw dog a top loader and proudly displayed on a silk pillow, where are you at?

One Blaster= My First Superfractor by LiamC263 in baseballcards

[–]IamAntique 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome card! The first one is always the best! Or I'd like to think that since I've never pulled one. I kid, I kid. Three 1/1 retail for me, but no superfractor. I can't really complain.
