What is this CASE worth?

JWall037 · January 29, 2015 1:57PM

A guy on eBay has a sealed case of 2000 SP football for $4,199 + $50 S/H... A few weeks back I see boxes in the completed for $250, which is $3,000 a case. Since they beat the Colts, I see a box or two selling in the $275-300 range. What does a sealed case add to the equation? Especially since the boxes are also sealed again... I want to make ab offer but I don't know what is fair market value. Anyone?

What does a team beating the Colts have to do with it?

I think there is a premium for a sealed case so no chance a Brady auto pulled already

Because after they beat the Indianapolis High Colts, Brady's card took a huge jump...

For my personal unopened purchasing, zero. I would actually expect a discount for purchasing in bulk, since most of my unopened purchases are ripped rather shortly thereafter. Most unopened collectors will say 10-15%, maybe a touch more depending on rarity of the case.

I would expect pricing to come back down to prior levels within a month after the SB. Brady's already priced as a HOFer and I don't see what difference one more ring would make, if they even win.

Worst time to buy.... Wait till June and pick it up a lot cheaper. Also same advice I gave on Jeremy Lin about this time of year 2011.

As much as I hate Brady, we cannot be comparing Brady with Lin

Brady just has a rookie card in the sp authentic. No auto. If that's what case he is talking about.

A GEM MINT Brady might pay for just over half the cost of the case and there really isn't much else to look for.

Just make sure the packs are inflated to between 12.5 and 13.5 psi before making a purchase.

Good point Lin was hotter in 2011 because he played in a much better market than Brady.
