The hobby market fluctuates on a minute to minute basis... and sometimes it just has to do with finding the right buyer for the right card.Fujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00749100861086458307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1709402326341729642.post-20668646930518401212017-10-14T09:10:03.407-07:002017-10-14T09:10:03.407-07:00Nice finds, and I'm especially fond of that Th...Nice finds, and I'm especially fond of that Thames SP.

I know there are some sellers on there that exploit that situation, such as the notorious JoelShitShow. But then again, looking up cards in Beckett often gives you non-realistic prices, too.. so I think there's always going to be an element of that in trying to establish the value of cards.defgavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15338984361942309651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1709402326341729642.post-9501180439511193042017-10-14T06:44:16.379-07:002017-10-14T06:44:16.379-07:00Nice pickups.

I'll use COMC for a quick assessment on card prices, but like Kenny mentioned... sometimes vendors are a little ridiculous with their prices. If there are a lot of vendors with one card... then I'd say the price guide theory could work. But if one guy has a numbered parallel of Kurt Suzuki numbered to 300 and he's asking $50 for it... there's no way I'm paying even 10% of that price.Fujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00749100861086458307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1709402326341729642.post-76740479630968533762017-10-13T20:20:25.969-07:002017-10-13T20:20:25.969-07:00TBH I've found COMC to be a bit inflated at ti...TBH I've found COMC to be a bit inflated at times, but these are all good deals. Even the Hedges mini.
