This is why it's so tough to build a player set, or ANY set for that matter. This is why ANY set builder should be respected, if not just a little anyway.

This 1998 Donruss Cal Ripken Jr. books for $2.00, has a population of (1) PSA 8, (2) PSA 9, and (5) PSA 10, and it's already at $34.88 with a half hour to go! Earlier today I thought, hmmm, I can snipe this for $15/$20, but nooooooo, lol.

Anyway, just thought I'd share my pitiful plight. image

    don't feel so bad, jeff. if it was a vintage card with those pops, you'd need to add a few 0s to your snipe. and, in a few months, you'll be able to get it for $2.

    One day I'll figure out why I can't give PSA 10 pop. 2's of Ripken away for $25, while cards like this sell for $40.

    I'll only spend that much on cards from his Basic Set Registry, since that's what I'm trying to build right now. I've seen his 1995 & 1998 Topps base card PSA 10 sell for over $150 each! I spent $50 on the 1995 PSA 9!! I have no clue why, besides what the population was at the time.
