What was so different for the 2001 Topps Archives set that made the autographs so expensive?

 

[GreatAlbert]

I think the fact that they were SP'd that early. I was watching a lot of these and couldn't believe some of the prices they were fetching. Especially the Brock. Thought the Nolan Ryan would be one of the top money getters, but it seems he was more middle of the pack.

I guess there is a lot more than 50 people trying to complete the set. The Lou Brock books at 300.00.


BTW, I am willing to trade for any of the above cards, but I trade by Beckett value, not sell value.

Wow! I won a few Griffey Jr. auto serial 10 and only spend a little over $200.00! Best regards, David

It's a popular set, and PSA just did an article on them in their newsletter one or two issues ago, probably got some people looking to scoop some up in hopes of grading and selling to the set registry members

Where in the world did you get a willie mays auto for 4 bucks?!

 

[valediction]

My first guess was from a pack

 

[bongo870]

right. There was only 1 jumbo pack on the self and I wasnt there to buy packs only supplies so they said take it for 4 bucks to clear there shelf. And BAM!
