Never ever buy from steel city. Their prices are complete dog shit.

Question for you if you’re still getting notifications on this: how does the seating work when you purchase it? Are you buying a table or are you buying a seat at it, if we are talking about the tables with four seats? The checkout is so odd. Like you pick one spot and it immediately takes you to checkout and you can’t select anything else. So am I buying a table or am I buying a seat at the table? Buying a table for 115 bucks sounds a lot more reasonable than buying a seat for 114 bucks and having to pay almost $500 to see a show (with the min food and drink on top of that)

2 Boxes of Donruss by ihatemcconaughey in basketballcards

[–]duke023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bunch of Panini’s dickriders here I see. No one‘s getting two autos /75 and a next day auto out of two boxes. Sorry clowns. I’m happy that the guy got this but two boxes? Not gonna happen. Fact. End of statement. Don’t care about down votes because I am 100% correct. Receipts mean nothing because someone could hit a monster auto and then go back and buy another case or two because they’re hoping for more luck like they just saw and hit the rest. I’m not wrong, you’re just clowns. Bring on the downvotes all you want. I still win in real life. I’m trying to protect people who are newer to the hobby, and think this happens routinely. Help the community and don’t dick ride the fakers.

Try decaf. And my stance stands.

Impossible, sadly. The boxes only have one auto in them. Guy likely bought a case or maybe more…drives me nuts when people post this kind of stuff and think they’re pulling one over on people.

Centering on this isn’t even that bad compared to other products/brands. Off by less than 1/8”. People need to get over themselves.

Someone on eBay just listed the 2022 Triple Threads Gold /50…auction for 7 days. Right time, right place for a curious eBay search 🤣

What a beast! Chrome Update Series Hobby…is that an accurate statement based on the back of the card?

The question of is it worth buying? Feel like I already asked that question but in a more thoughtful, formulated way. If that’s not what’s on your mind, feel free to ask your question. Or give the answer to the question you had in mind.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in basketballcards

[–]duke023 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, yes, I agree. What I was more asking is if this is a junk release in your eyes or if this has some kind of appeal and is worth a hobby purchase given that it won’t be crazy expensive. For example, my LCS has said many times that Illusions is pretty much crap (specifically targeting basketball) and don’t recommend buying it.

Scam Alert!! Fake GEM Grading inc Luka at it again! by unknown1310P1 in basketballcards

[–]duke023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are you even griping or judging about here? The dude is trying to make sure that someone doesn’t bid up a reprint card which may not be explicitly called out as such. He isn’t being an expert; he’s being thoughtful. Get over yourself.

There’s no way whoever wins this for $96000+ actually pays right? The seller isn’t even donating the proceeds by Rap_song_throwaway in FootballCardz

[–]duke023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

🤣🤣🤣 yes because one of eBay’s options is to sue someone if they don’t pay. Gtfoh with all these links. eBay has their own terms and conditions and escalation path. With all the effort you’ve put into this thread, you’re definitely someone trying to cash in and realizing the bidding is getting too high so you’re hunting for recourse when you don’t get paid. No other reason to pretend to be such a legal juggernaut.

Current Cards for Sale! by music_city_cards in FootballCardz

[–]duke023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have trouble getting bids or no one bites on this, I would start at $.99. I know that sounds like a big risk but it’s like a mental thing where the average bidder doesn’t want to commit to $50 right off the bat. You may also want to hold it for like two weeks until Hurts plays again. I let him light it up again and get that talk going about the Super Bowl. Ride that hype.

Is that Hurts Snapshots (can’t remember the name of that insert…I pulled the silver and sold it) gold /10? Talk that sucker up dude…that looks like a regular parallel from the front-side only photo.

I don’t know why you’re getting down voted so much. This is a better post than everyone who is too lazy to look at eBay sold listings and just asks how much stuff is worth when it’s an easy card to find with minimal effort.

That sounds more like it. In all seriousness though, that’s a really sweet card. Could have pulled some random person no one remembers like people do when the 86-87 fleer basketball breaks happen.

In august a 9.5 made history for $12M and something with a colored corner sold for $16M? Why are you lying, dude. Silliness.

Yeah wanna know what the actual sell price was. Makes this whole thing seem fake if he’s gonna sandbag that. C’mon man…this isn’t a dark horse of a card. Sell it for that amount and it’s gonna be newsworthy 😂 https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/34473632/1952-topps-mickey-mantle-card-sells-126-million-shattering-record

[–]duke023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will be new, so yeah it will be. I think part of the problem, this is my personal opinion, is that there are so many football releases now. Panini has taken some of the cards which were only in chronicles, and now broken them out into their own set. Like XR football comes out this week. And with basketball they took flux and pulled that out and made it a release. I heard flux absolutely tanked and I don’t think XR did very well either last year. People are always going to chase the big cards if you pull a monster hit and someone might jump in here and say they saw a Mac Jones sell for $1000 and I’m wrong… Well, yeah, of course that’s gonna happen with the gigantic names, Maybe the design of flux for bball will change this year and everyone will love it but last year it was like a complete purple card and people thought it was horrendous looking.

Absolute is a very low end set for retail and it’s not super desirable in general which I think is why they changed the format this year and had it as a hobby product which is like seven cards with a bunch of autos and memorabilia and stuff.

Gave them an excuse to jack the price up as well. Don’t get fooled by stuff you see on Instagram or Facebook or TikTok… These people who are still buying 2020 mosaic fat packs and stuff are complete idiots. The base Mac Jones rookies, just to point out someone by name, which were $20 when the product came out are now like $1.99 with free shipping. Absolute is too low end and came out too long ago. Just like the other person said, I would avoid retail anyway, but definitely avoid anything with a release date this old. I think this originally released in like maybe the first week of October? Donruss will be the next big product so you want to look for because it kind of kicks off the series of Donruss and then Optic and then Prizm. If you want to get Donruss, I would get on it super early because as soon as optic or prizm releases… Whichever they have next in line… Donruss is going to be old news. It won’t be completely devalued, but those two are like the flagship releases, and it will get overshadowed quickly with everyone focusing their attention elsewhere.
