Risky time to buy PW stuff seeing as he might not make it on the team.
titanbuoy 08-21-2008, 08:20 AM This thread is great... as long as you don't point out any cards that I'm looking to buy (and end up cost me money) :suspect:
I saw that CJ premiere auto... the ink on the sig looks funky doesn't it?
2600 posts... :geek:
PhiSlammaJamma 08-21-2008, 09:02 AM I saw a CJ for 24$ before his 60 yard td run on buy it now, and one hour later it was 54$. It pissed me off. I like the idea of the thread. But the execution may prove difficult because if we all want the card, uh boy. It might work better for buy it now items.
titanbuoy 08-21-2008, 10:11 AM The lowest I've seen a Johnson premiere auto sell for is $44 (and I'm pretty OCD when it comes to checking Johnson's eBay listings). Jerms have you seen any sell for less than $40?
Regardless, I totally blew it by being cheap initially. I was the second highest bidder on a few of the premiere autos that ended in the $45-$50 range and then I end up hitting the BIN for one at $69.99. Oh well.
vslyke 08-21-2008, 09:16 PM Yeah, I'm thinking this should be a BIN only thread. Auctions could get problematic reaaaaaaaaaal quick.
monsta 08-21-2008, 11:27 PM The lowest I've seen a Johnson premiere auto sell for is $44 (and I'm pretty OCD when it comes to checking Johnson's eBay listings). Jerms have you seen any sell for less than $40?
I don't believe so. I think I paid around $50 for mine. The cheapest I've seen one go is the same as you - $44.
On another note - I just lost the freaking Topps red ink auto AGAIN! :(

A very nice card, that only comes up so often. Not a bad price, and it's numbered to /1150. The only problem is that is a Cardinals jersey, but it's one of only 3 KVB jersey cards I have ever seen.

No one here bought this? How much cheaper are you guys expecting to land a cj sig for?
TitanJeff 08-25-2008, 08:59 AM Sorry, mon. I only buy rookie sigs in Titans unis.
:ha:
PhiSlammaJamma 08-25-2008, 10:39 AM Plus, CJ needs some attractive cards. The only one that is easy on the eye so far is the rookie premiere auto. At least in my opinion. His pose auto where he is jumping or whatever is not too bad, at least you can look at it. But Hopefully this is a good year for attractive cards because CJ is going to be a great one.
Vince got a little short changed on nice looking cards for his rookie year too. Although I thought his sterling rookie was very nice compared to other years in which sterling produced. His aspire ticket and Spx auto's were nice too.
Can't wait to see more CJ cards. Hopefully some sets release soon.
vslyke 08-25-2008, 04:56 PM I would, but I hate that RP card. How can you not? It's hideous. At least, I think it is. However, the value was so good I had to talk off myself off of it.
titanbuoy 08-25-2008, 06:35 PM I actually like the Rookie Progression autos. I like the retro look and the sig itself really pops. Generally speaking, my tastes in cards do not match those of the masses, which is cool for my wallet.

I own one of these. Really nice on card auto of the former Oilers/Titans great. (a best offer of $2 would probably get it... unless someone hits the BIN button before the seller has a chance to accept)
titanbuoy 08-30-2008, 08:13 AM Nice hard Press Pass Hawkins sig for a buck (only $2 shipping)

Chris Brown Auto/Jsy out of 25. 20 BIN with a Best Offer option. Not sure who would want this, but it's a very nice card, and the seller is great.

vslyke 09-01-2008, 07:37 PM Nice. It's a very nice card. Glad one of us got it.

vslyke 09-02-2008, 05:26 PM It's a bit high, but it does have a Best Offer section. Try that out, and see if you can get it cheaper.
titanbuoy 09-07-2008, 07:22 AM Break open your piggy banks. Cheap VY sig!

titanbuoy 09-25-2008, 07:08 PM Okay, just on the off chance any of you are as goofy as I am... Nick Harper only has one RC (which is kind of rare thing these days). He appears with Joseph Jefferson on a dual card in the 2004 Topps Total set. Total was a low end release and the card is dirt cheap and can be found in the eBay stores for a buck or two BIN price.
click (http://cgi.ebay.com/NICK-HARPER-JOSEPH-JEFFERSON-04-TOPPS-TOTAL-RC-COLTS_W0QQitemZ160271837413QQihZ006QQcategoryZ1499 10QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp 1638Q2em118Q2el1247)
I looked arround and found a guy selling 2004 Topps Total Colts Team set for $1.50 and the shipping is cheap. So you get the Harper RC and the rest of the colts cheese for one low,low price :)
click (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=370085564427&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=024)
I think Nick has been playing pretty well this season, and since he only has the one RC I couldn't resist dropping a few bucks to pick it up.
