egg-strodinary times we live in.

prepare for the instagram egg phenomenon to take over.

heard about this early. went to comc and bought up a few cards for $.30 last night,

relisted one for $37.99. had the others shipped.

got the notification that it sold first thing this morning.

some one else relisted the same card for $5k 😉

crazy times.

    it is/was the most "liked" photo on instagram. so i guess it go it's own card. now sweeping the nation. social media, pop culture and cards, i guess.

    Pump and dump is a beautiful thing to watch. What's the next Star Wars card to get hot? I'm all out of spare Luke #1s after this batch of auctions ends.

    I have a 2018 Allen and Ginter Bitcoin card that was going for $300+ the last time I looked. I don’t understand that one either. But I sent mine in to be graded and will sell it as soon as it comes back. No way that card maintains value over time

    Pretty sure many were saying that about the subject when it first peaked @ $14k-ish.

    That card was selling at 14k!? Or are you talking about actual Bitcoin?

    i think kyle's referring to a year or so prior to the recent run up....remember it vaguely.

  • parthur1607parthur1607 Posts: 202 ✭✭✭

    Anyone that paid 14k for that card is pissed now! These egg people are going to feel the same a year from now.

    I was referring to the subject of the card, not the card itself.

    on cryptocurrency card #83 the 1/1 blank back went for $2500 at auction and then flipped the next week for $12.5K (supposedly).

    eta: of course knowing that musk is in into currency/cards now and it'd wouldnt even be the flick of a wrist, it could be possible, i guess. it's supposedly the first time crypto made an appearance on a card, so....who knows?

    more on the social media expierement:

    apparently i missed these in my shipping cart the other day. so went and listed them since i couldn't add them to my existing cart. didn't feel like paying another $15 just for these 3 to ship or to ship them out in 2 months time.

    i don't sell much on comc so the prices were higher. guess i have an auto accept percentage on as i didn't approve the discount (but i woulda obviously accepted the offers)

    crazy as h3ll:

  • blurryfaceblurryface Posts: 5,136 ✭✭✭✭✭

    eta: and they are apparently relisted at $500, $800 & $5000 for the mini.

    heck, i hope he gets it. i bought 3 of those minis. 5 of the blacks.

    just got my full size crypto in today. the same day I bought this, one closed at auction for $500+ which is well more than I paid for mine. and yesterday another closed also over $500. I also grabbed two mini A&G backs for the heck of it.

    I probably don't even want to look, but that's a childhood one I always wanted. Finally picked up a decent raw copy when I got back in the game.

    I've done enough Asian trips, my stomach can handle raw chicken, no problem.
