    thanks for the advice i never thought of sorting my commons by year,set, number but it makes sense. does marking the gu/autos at half bv move them better then a 3 dollar box?

    2011 national card show. dealers advice is welcome

    thats a definite for me. most of my stuff will probably be 10 cent, 25 cent, 1 dollar boxes etc. with a few medium end things. in your experience how well do things like 3 dollar gu/auto boxes, 10 cent base boxes and 25 cent rc boxes do as that would probably be a majority of my stuff to start.

    Tri City Sports Mojo Preview (case hit)

    ive been reading up on this thread and the last thread about it. i think its a good idea but needs more development. i think its great that you are trying to offer alternatives to the topps monopoly. but if it was me i wouldnt bother trying to release anything this year because i think there...

    what are you doing with your bowman chrome boxes now?

    im thinking the same thing. how many did you get? i got 2 from blowout and 2 from another site. blowout let me move my money over to a live product so i got some other boxes and the last 2 im probably going to bust.

    what are you doing with your bowman chrome boxes now?

    thats what im thinking i paid 160ish i believe for them this summer best case if i resell them i can get 110ish back so i would be taking a 50 dollar loss no matter what. im thinking ill bust and hope for a stras auto. even with him hurt his autos still sell quite well.

    dutch auctions what do you think?

    thats no problem i dont take offense. i feel your right about the big hit not being given out. im not like that the big hit would be in it. i would package up all 100 lots right away and put them in a box. but the fact that most people dont probably hurts my cause. im probably going to hold...
