Cracked out a 62 Joe Torre PSA 7 and got an 8 on it
About a $300 swing on a sharp card
I just bought a bunch of modern 80's lots for the group sub...fingers crossed there's some good stuff there.
Thanks for sharing your experience...
<< <i>I traded a stupid car dealer a junk vette that had water damage for an awesome vintage set. >>
lol, that water damaged vette you traded is ringing a bell on ebay. It's up to $4350 and I've been offered $5200 and $5000 to take it off of ebay. I only had $2000 in that awesome vintage set. So I'll say that is my best card deal so far in 2010.
<< <i>WOW! great find / break... Was it in a old flip? How often do you go to a show or place to purchase cards with the intent of buy/crack/resub? >>
Not sure if it was the old flip? I have to dig em up. I just got the cards back from PSA yesterday
ALWAYS on the look for undergraded/sharp raw! Mostly just luck running into them
Believe in the card not the number
I'd have to say my minty fresh near complete set of 88 Fleer basketball from board member burke23 has been my favorite purchase thus far.

Is he (or you) kidding around, or did he really not know you were on this site???

I traded a '64 set for an '85 Corvette a few weeks back and then in a thread totally unrelated, someone commented on how I didn't include that the car had a previous title that was listed with water damage. I explained, and was backed up by someone who actually knew something about the car business and Georgia title work, that the "water damage" could have been any number of things from having a seat recovered due to leaving the window down to being at the bottom of a lake. I have no way of knowing because it happened in 1997 and I've only owned the car for a few weeks. At any rate, apparently it was very minor because it was immediately taken off the title and it has had a clear title since 1997. Now, keep in mind, this information is all included in the autocheck right there on the listing for everyone to see, and several potential bidders have questioned me about it. I have no idea why they felt the need to try and demean me or my business, but I also don't really care. Someone who makes less in a year than I make in a month can call me a stupid car dealer all day.
As you will see about half of these cards were graded by third world or worse grading companies. I may keep one of each grading company for the heck of it and crackout the others.

I assume all your sales are final and no warranty is offered?? I sure would hate to be the one who buys that car only to later find there was water damage. You might want to put fencing around your car lot/pawn shop because someone is going to want to talk to you!!

do you not read or do you simply not comprehend what you do read? The "water damage" is clearly listed in the autocheck in the ebay listing for everyone to see. I'll State it again, THE TITLE IS CLEAR AND HAS BEEN SINCE 1997. Apparently the owner went through the state and had the claim removed because it was a minor incident as they would not remove it if it was anything requireing a salvage title. I've already had 2 people from out of town come and inspect the car as well as a lot of others call about it and make offers to take it off of ebay. ALL OF THEM asked about the title and apparently understood what the hell "water damage" is as it pertains to a title and insurance claims can mean, unlike a lot of the clowns on this board. At any rate, I'm gonna pocket over 3K on this deal and I may go and spend it on hookers and blow, or baseball cards.

Have fun with the hookers and blow...You sound like a fine upstanding citizen. Whats the name of your used car lot/ pawn shop again???
but, it would be far less entertaining w/o Tommy's posts. please don't ever get banned Tommy.

As long as I refrain from political banter I should be ok, lol.
<< <i>So the vette has water damage? Is the title clear? >>
why do you care? I wouldn't sell it to you even if you could afford it.
