Hulk Hogan
Here is the nicest Hogan I have ever scene. I have been bidding on it but I am afraid someone else wants to pay more for it.
This one is definatley nicer then my PSA 9.
There is also an Andre The Giant which is the highest graded and a great looking BGS 9 Ric Flair up as well.

<< <i>but when the number of bidders has exploded you have to let them know you are serious >>
On this auction I count 6 bidders. Hardly an explosion in my honest opinion.

8 different bidders. Also not an explosion of bidders in my opinion.

Yeah I hear Gretzky and McNall are all over the wrestling cards these days.
<< <i>The whole Snipe bidding theory doesn't work with these auctions. When you are dealing with rising prices you have to test out your competition. If you watch all of the Wrestling All Stars auctions they are determined way before the final second ticks. I understand the concept of pretending there is little interest but when the number of bidders has exploded you have to let them know you are serious. I have won many auctions with these cards by showing a strong presence early and a relentless bidding amount. I enjoy looking through my feedback and seeing auctions with only 1 or 2 bidders. Those days are over!!! >>
Just wow!
After reading that I think I'm retarded.
A year ago when I first started buying these I won my Hogan PSA 9 with a Jerry Lawler 9 and the rest of the set in great condition for $199 and was the only bidder. That same auction today would turn into a frenzy.
I just sold my Jordan PSA 9 for $1,225 two days ago. You can get on EBAY and find a Jordan in any condition at any time. That is something that very valuable but not very rare. This Hogan I mentioned in the title is the first one to come up in at least six weeks. That is rare.
The only cards I had to have were the Flair, Graham, Rhodes, and Snuka 10's. I have been losing most of the auctions becuase I always have a price I am willing to pay and that is it. Of the auctions going right now the Andre is the most interesting to me. I have 11 of that card and none are even close to as nice.
I have acumulated 883 of these cards from all three sets and plan to keep buying only when I think the price is right or it is a piece I need towards building extremely high quality graded sets.

<< <i>I just sold my Jordan PSA 9 for $1,225 two days ago. You can get on EBAY and find a Jordan in any condition at any time. >>
That's because Jordan was a professional athlete in a real sport.
BTW, not all those "bidders" are legit buyers
Yes Jordan was the man. I just think his cards are going no where and saw no reason to have that much tied up in the card. I can buy it back anytime was the point and it only becomes a price issue whether it is higher or lower.
I enjoy collecting something and have every major baseball card I want and have no interest in vintage material so this is what I collect. There are cards of the Three Stooges selling for huge money so if an actor's card in this case sells for a lot big deal.
No one can take away from the wrestlers of the 70's and 80's who gave it their all every night for the love of the sport.
Also, if you are interested in this card at current values and wish to bypass ebay, please PM or email me with a legitimate offer.

Don't waste your time and fees listing on ebay before getting in touch me by PM or at gregmo32@aol.com !
If you really have one I will buy it for that amount.
I have not been trading stocks because I can't figure out which direction the market wants to go so the card market fills that void.
I have lost a ton of auctions on EBAY but only one time in the last seconds on a wrestling set. I think wrestling collectors tend to be a little more emotional and show their hand early. Who knows.

Here is a great example of what I am talking about. This set has never sold for this much. This is a great looking set. I put my max bid at $150 and have since been passed by. Watch how this one ends. The guy near the top is a ligit buyer who I sold some Hogan cards too. I think this may go as high as $225 although that is a $105 higher then the so called book value. This should be interesting.
I think it's the Ricky The Dragon pre-crushed larynx card is what's driving the price up.
Seriously he did have some serious health complications just recently. He is only 57 years old and I want to see him live. There are a ton of wrestlers that have died very young and he was a guy with the habits outside the ring that he deserves to live for a while. I hope he gets better and is able to continue with his life.

There is a Buy/Sell/Trade board and that's where your eBay listing should be posted. But since this isn't really a sport not sure where it would be suitable to be posted.

You think it is so amusing to like old Wrestling Cards so why bother! I don't make fun of the people on this site wasting their money on modern sports cards!
This whole experience has been such a great laugh! You guys need to take a chill pill; plain and simple!

Chill pill you say? Nah. I'm fine without one. A drink or three would be good but I have responsibilities so that's out.
And not sure how you know what I might find amusing? I've known of this issue (Wrestling Cards) for some time. Few cards I wouldn't mind owning but always found other things to waste my funds on.

<< <i>I know this seller as Travis is in our monthly group breaks. Great guy...I'll have to hit him up for a loan after this one ends! >>
Great guy he may be...but I hope his replies are sounding are more a lack of internet board or people experience in general, and not a reflection on his character.

Serious question here and no disrespect meant to anyone.
For those that insist that Snipe bidding is the way to go. How would you play an auction like this. Let me make it clear I am not bidding on this card at this point and won't at this price.
The Andre has never sold on EBAY for more then $28.50 that I have ever seen. The current bid is $51 with basically 9 days to go. The so called book value in NM-MT raw condition by Beckett is $30. This card is extremly rare in high grade and the toughest to find in the set. The card is clearly piggy backing on the graded version that I am bidding on. A few weeks ago I mentioned this card was a great buy and could be purchased from Wrestle Prints. He is out of any without corner damage and raised his price to $79.95 for his few remaining. I bought two for the $20 price.
I have no idea what this card with sell for. Please give me your playbook on how you deal with hot items that are very rare. I still am confused on how it works when your are not dealing with stale items that generally trade in a defined range. When a price is breaking out how would you play this. I am just looking for your honest feedback.
Thanks

It does not matter what the card, interest in the card or price, when snipping. If you are willing to pay x amount for card b, it is no advantage to you to show your hand early. The only possibly outcome by bidding early is someone pushing your bid up. The exception to this rule is cards in the $10 and under range. Many times, first bid will win these cards, and a bid may discourage someone else.

In my personal situation I will test the market and see how high others are willing to go. If I push the auction up to a point where our bids are equal then I usually stop and wait and see what happens. It would seem to me at least that you have no advanatage if a card moves way past what you thought it would sell for.
In a case like that I guess you simply walk away and don't bid?
<< <i>Perhaps I did not ask the question right or maybe I simply just don't understand the strategy. If a card has never sold for a certain price it would seem that you don't always know how much you will pay.

No, I set a snipe day one and walked away.
Some cards you do not know what will go for. That doesn't really matter, what matters is what you are willing to pay.
I would give $100, maybe a little more for the Hogan RC shown in your first posting. The market is obviously more then that, which means I will likely not own one. What you think the card is worth does not matter to me and I fail to see why it should. (Unless it is for resale of course).
I have a lot of meteorites in the four to five digit range...they likely would not be worth that to you. I don't see how that matters either.
If what you are willing to pay...changes every ten minutes and depends on others, I am not sure what to tell you. I know I would not want to be your business partner.

On Aug-02-10 at 07:48:45 PDT, seller added the following information: to all bidders and viewers, ebay has contacted me in regards to the mj/mickey comparrison i used whitch they stats is not ok to do , so anyone who those words have offended in the desception is my error so disregard that, GOOD LUCK ON THE HOLY GRAIL OF WRSTLING CARDS AS U MAY NEVER SEE A NICER EXAMPLE SURFACE SUCH AS THIS ONE!! Please immediately remove all references to other cards, i.e., Jordon, Mantle, etc., from your listing. You cannot include a brand name or the name of an individual in your listing unless that is what you are selling or unless the item is officially endorsed by that individual. Nor can you state that the item is "inspired" by or "like" that brand or individual
So obviously eBay feels this seller is keyword spamming but unlike the many other sellers that pull this and eBay removes their listings for some reason this sellers listing can continue?

<< <i>What does that message board lingo mean? I am not up on the message board terms. >>
Here's one for you -

Will there be other high grade examplse hit the market, sure. The problem is there are so few sets in circulation in high grade that the reason the population reports are so low is there are so few worth submitting.
The reason they are heavily tilted to the high grades is that when you have a real nice one you kinow it!!!!
I suspect over time a few more really great sets will emerge but the buyer is so hungry to own one of these cards that the prices are not done going up.
