2013 Spectra Football Hall of Fame 50th Anniversary Autograph (150 card set) 63 cards released to da

Well, I have decided to take this monster set on. So I am going to post my progress as I go. The story on this set was Panini was going to release 150 different cards through out their 2013 and 2014 products. Each card will be factory #'d out of 50. Well, so far they have released 64 of the 150 cards in 2013-2015 products. So it may tak seven or eight years for all the cards to be released. The reason for building the set is they are my favorite design, all on card autographs and it will be a lesson in patience(something I lack).

Well here is what we have so far.

    My advice is stay focused and vigilent...make sure you have all kind of saved search functions (following) in ebay so you capture all that come to market. Very cool man.

    Nice pick up on the Dickerson. Those are some fantastic looking cards. An excellent choice of sets to build. I wonder if there is a basketball equivalent of this type of set. I think your plan is very sound. Especially the part where you talk about buying at auction vs BIN. Good luck executing your plan. I very much look forward to the updates.
    Steve
  • 49ersGuy49ersGuy Posts: 382 ✭✭
    very nice. I looked to see if their was a basketball equivalent and there seems to be. It is not as nice (patch + auto). The patch (to me at least) takes away from the look of the card.
  • 1980scollector1980scollector Posts: 2,036 ✭✭✭
    My actual plan-



    These cards are inserted in National Treasures, Contenders, Playbook and Spectra and all numbered to 50. Our thought is to be more aggressive with the cards that came from Playbook and Spectra. They're less desirable products so in theory will have more unopened product and some cards won't be pulled anytime soon.



    My wife and I are guessing the average cost per card will be $75. That is 150 cards X $75=$11,250. I believe it will take six years to release all 150 cards. So my goal is to catch up and finish in three full years. Well, I have an auto of each of the top ten players in the set in my personal collection. So the plan is to sell those and replace with their counterpart from this set. I believe that will cover the top $2,000 of the set. In addition, that will help with the average. There are 156 weeks so the plan is to pick up one new card per week on average. I will give myself six individual weeks to skip if the prices are high, no real auctions running that week. So my guess is on average I need to come up with $65 or so per week. I am always flipping cards for fun/extra money so I will just have to do a little more of that.



    The key is to buy them at auction compared to BIN/BO. If you look at past auctions you can save 20-50% if you are willing to gamble on losing a card at auction. Any advice will be appreciated for someone who took on a large modern set.

    Can you tell me what the name of the basketball version is and what products it is found in? Thanks!

    Good question and assume they think it must fit in that strip and he didn't want to cover the HOF emblem. I wish he had signed the entire strip for sure. Here is a checklist. Just scroll down.

    Nice looking Monk. One of the forgotten stars from the 1980's. Are you gonna crack out the card so it matches the rest? You can score some good deals buying modern graded cards that are either 8 or 9. They often sell for less than raw cards. I find this unbelievable in the case of cards graded PSA or BGS 9.
    Steve
  • 1980scollector1980scollector Posts: 2,036 ✭✭✭
    Yes. I plan to crack them out for certain below a 9. My plan is once I get a little closer is to purchase some kind of display for them so we can enjoy them. I would hate for them to just sit in a two row shoe box.

    to answer your question....your correct in that youll usually find a huge price difference between the auctions and the BIN. You just have to have patience which will save you a lot of money. And sounds like you have time and have a good game plan..



    i think they're awesome looking cards so did a quick search....quick (mind you)so i could be way off.....looks like a lot in the $50-60 like u mentioned, some over 100. But what stood out, so Ill mention it, is that it looks like one guy is listing the same RAW cards for $500 and make an offer.....those guys are looking for a fish to come along and offer 2 or $300 thinking they're getting a great deal....i looked up one of his $500 cards and vs an exact same RAW example was going for 120, 100 and 140....geeze...those guys give the hobby a bad name....but before the doubters start...yes, they are his cards to do what he wants.....and actually i get BINs at 2X market...but 4-5X is too much..IMO.



    ....just from some of my experiences...take it or throw it away.....but good luck....Awesome set....Patience pays off..but one a week def sounds doable and fun

    i saw the dawson, i think you can get it cheaper so probably good to let that one go. On the $500 cards, that seller looks to have tried to corner the Staubach and Rice markets, maybe another player to two. In my experience, with pops up to 50, trying to do that NEVER works. Be patient, you'll get those guys at the right price eventually.
  • 1980scollector1980scollector Posts: 2,036 ✭✭✭
    Man all your information is a lot of help. Yes, he has about three or four of Rice, Emmitt and Staubach. However, if you look he busts that much product and is overpriced across the board.



    Luckily my father bought me the Emmitt as my Christmas gift so I don't have to chase that one down. Another seller has the Barry but the autograph looks off so I passed on it as well.



    I have tried to pick up the less expensive ones. My thought is a Rice, Sander or Elway will pop up at some point. A Bob Lilly may be tougher to track down. If you can buy them for the $30 range shipped.



    Speaking of Lilly I got him just now and traded at my LCS for Rod Woodson.

    I agree that cornering the market doesn't work...he has to buy every one he sees then just sit on the inventory for years...since you have a 4-6 year window, all you have to do is wait for one to slip thru.....besides, even if you wait and buy one in 6-7 yrs it'll still be at 500 max (worst case)



    these are so cool..i would have paid for the martin...but i don't see anything near your 16 bucks...wow, great find.

    ..tho i will admit, I've hit the BIN a couple times..that said, i agree, i would never hit that $500 BIN



    Hows your woodson look? i may try to pick one up...tho prob won't find it as cheap as you've been getting them. Your emmitt looks really cool..but I'm not gonna pay what i see them asking...congrats on it as a gift..

    awesome woodson....yep, I'm getting one....it looks great and now ur saying it looks even better in person? wow....



    u told us how ur plan on getting them...so how are u going to display them eventually, which ones graded, or a mixture graded? i wonder how they'll present the best.

    i don't have any yet but is the picture raised? like 3d? because some of the scans look different.....surface issues?sensitivity?...oh, are there plans for panini to increase the number from150 or is it set complete? thanks....and great looking cards....as u can tell, u got my interest with these and other than MJ (and heritage last year for fun) i haven't bought any modern since the 80s

    They all look the exact same in hand. It is just different scanners, IPhones etc. Yes, they are really beautiful in hand. The refractor finish makes it hard to scan/take a picture with my phone.



    My plan is to buy the wall cases that hold graded and ungraded cards. That way the few gem mint I have I can put on the top row.



    At the moment only 63 of the 150 have been released. Panini claims 64 but nobody has ever seen the Bob Griese. I would imagine the set will be complete but they could always keep going. In my opinion, they won't get all 150 to sign so they will replace them with newly inducted members. That's just a guess. Yes, they seem to be sensitive on the surface but corners and edges are normally perfect.

    This is now 15 of the 63 released. I sold some of my higher end autographs at a local show. As those funds dry up the updates will slow down. This has been the most fun I have had in cards in a long time.
