No craziness. Just a solid long term trend, approaching 10 years now. Train is smoothly on track. Only some of the unlimited inserts have been given back ground lately. But thats a correction, that was long expected. In contrast, autographed cards are on a roll and numbered inserts and...

The pics for this auction were most likely stolen from various internet sources. Here is one possibility (15th row - middle): http://www.rare23air83.com/ungraded.html The grade itself (for the card in the current auction) was given 11/20/2012, according to Beckett´s database. Because of that...

Terrific card, congratulations ! Value should be in the 2500 - 3500 USD range.

Part of history. Where it all began... All the best, Mike.

Yep, great football section. Lots of knowledge accumulated over there. On the Basketball section, Heafy83 summed it up very well. HK is a great place. Sure, collectors not into high end may feel a little sidelined over there. But judging from eBay there got to be dozens if not hundreds of...

More negative developments taking place. After shill-bidder c***h (impatchesthecat) came out on top on this card already 3 months ago, he finished second on the same item last night. Interestingly enough, these fraudsters seem to lower their price expectations. In August c***h...

Thanks, fellow collectors, Unfortunately another questionable activity by london_olympics* can be brought up... She recently bought a 1998-99 Black Diamond Diamond Dominance Emerald 048/100 in BGS 9.5 condition for 676.55 USD (plus shipping costs). 10 days later the card is up for auction...

Did some extensive research and here are just some of the more suspicious activities related to the account london_olympics* - takeover from HK: "Finally found enough evidence on the long suspected and already mentioned former bond_girl, currently london_olympics* and usa_dream_team*. Her...

From eBay: "Ending Auction-style listings when they have a bid can lead to buyer frustration. Starting October 1, to protect the spirit and integrity of auctions, a fee will be charged for ending an Auction-style listing early after there’s been a bid." and furthermore: "The amount charged...

One of the very best forums around !

Minimum value should be 5.000 USD. Fair price somewhere around 6.000 USD, leaving upside potential.

Adrian Dantley, Bernhard King, Mark Aguirre, Alex English and so many others. They played extremely well, had finesse in their game and a great shooting touch. King for example at 6-7ft. had seasons with a FGPCT of 58.8% and 56.6% and another year, were he scored 32.9 Points per Game for a...

Thats your opinion, Cobretti. I respect and to an extent agree, except for the foolish part. Because, on average, rich people are very well educated. And maybe the buyer thinks, that 5k is a steal, who knows ? Its still a BGS 10, making this card a 1/1 Jordan 90s, derived from one of the most...

To answer the original question: No, not at all. More fun then ever before. ANY price movement is not going to change that. Take the 2 extreme sides: 1. Prices drop by 90%: will try to buy as many MJ 90s dream cards as possible, first and foremost, his AUs and rare limited inserts and parallels...

One should have more trust in high-end-buyers, that these guys know what they do. Dont get me wrong, i think the price for the non-pack-included Playmakers Theatre /100 is too high as well. But just look at what the buyer recently bought: Lebron RC - 2.300 USD...
