So I just sold my Kobe Ultimate Dual Patch #/25 on ebay. There were 32 people watching it. It finished at $48 - even though the last one that looked almost identical sold for $86. :(
 
Think you are right! I have seen quite a few bargains of late on ebay, mind you, the dual and quad tags have been selling for above average, as I guess out of all ppl you would know!

Especially some of the common ones going for $40-50, which I can't really justify...

Had 3 sales so far, all well below what I was hoping for... NOBODY bidding in the last few seconds or last day even!

Could it be the time the auctions are ending? I mean, if it's at a time where US members are asleep, that could be a reason...
 
Last one that finished was 15.22PM Pacific time. Was relying on some good sales to pay for Tag Teams!

lol I imagine you would have quite a few to pay for after all those ended on Tuesday! Seen the one with jerry west and pat ewing on it? Some sick patches on it! Going for a mint though! /8 only!!!!! :woot:

Yeah I've decided I'm only going for the ones #/10.

Seen a Knicks one #/4, Hakeem/Oscar etc #/6, MJ/Wilt/Kareem/Malone #/2 and that Ewing/West/Shaq one out of 8 that were all too much to justify...
 
Was that your Ultimate with the all star patches?
Thats ridiculous, i would have expected that to sell for atleast $80-100.

Sorry to hear mate.
 
Couple of Aussies won some of my auctions, including a Kobe jersey #/25 for $10...

With the last Kobe patch I saw selling for $86 I expected more. With the last SPGU Triple Patch Kobe/Durant/Love selling for $31 I expected more than $20. I made a profit on two cards but a big loss on pretty much everything else...
 
Im with you Norm, would have been a nice addition to the PC at that price.

Hairy: Get used to not making profit and losing money, its all part of collecting cards. Once i realised it wasn't a money making game the hobby became much more enjoyable for me.
