Topps Premier Gold 2014/15 info

Awesome bro, I should've gone for mata and rooney. I picked up herrera, shaw, januzaj,blind and the ugliest man in football. Big morning, i got falcao orange /11 auto (got whole rainbow now) plus januzaj and u.m.i.f 1/1 plates as well.

Nice job on the falcao rainbow, make sure you post a pic of them all together when it arrives :thumbsup:

Will do man, no thanks to good old Aus Post - Have had things in limbo waiting to leave Melbourne to come to Perth Since before xmas! Sheesh!
Here's what I picked up this morning.. 5x Blank Back 1/1's, 2x 1/1 plates, Herrera Black /25 and Falcao orange /11 auto. You will note Phil looks even less handsome (if that's possible!!) on the plate Bwahahahahaha. Will probably try and complete the Falcao Jumbo patch/auto combo's need /25 and /11 and maybe a auto plate. The actual Premier Gold 1/1 autos just go for way more than I will spend

All yours.

The only other card I'm interested at this stage is the 1/1 plate.
Cheers mate, we should all start listing what we are bidding for, come to an arrangement so we don't drive the prices up on each other.

I will definitely stay away from the plate.
 
I am going for man utd genuine 1/1's and falcao jumbo patch auto / 11 and / 25 only, if they come up. The couple of howard autos I picked up were just for fun. I was going to do the /25 black team set but cbf. I got a few in a group break. Is anyone looking for anything in particular as I am on 2 other forums and have some contacts around the place. You can pm if you would rather keep it to yourself. Lol
 
Agreed @cherrycollectables , I find it amazing that people buying from abroad don’t check what they are really paying, although on occasion, just like everyone else, I’d almost rather not know!
Yeah, if your paying for cards now in USD converting from AUS then its going to hurt a lot more.

The Russians have got it worst at the moment their currency is plummeting against the USD.

However those who buy at the right time protected their money and made a nice return.

For example with the 1 USD = 70 Rubles
but back in June 1 USD = 35 Rubles

Using today's exchange rate for sale prices and June for buying prices, expected box break return (auto/memo cards only) from the following collections:

Panini Prizm World Cup
Expected Box Break Return today = $50 or Rubles 3,500 (50 * 70)
Price of Box today = $120 or Rubles 4,200 (120 * 35)

ROI: 3,500/4,200 = 83%

Futera Unique 2014
Expected Box Break Return today = $365 or Rubles 25,550 (365 * 70)
Price of Box today = $299 or Rubles 10,465 (299 * 35)

ROI: 25,550/10,465 = 244%

Pfft. 78 cents is nothing. I remember when it bottomed out circa 90/91 to 50 cents.

Do you honestly think we dont know conversion rates when making purchases?

lol

I have both these cards on my watch list, however I have not made a bid nor will I now :thumbsup:. You guys were nice to let me bid on a card the other day, I can only return the favour, all the best lads.

I bid $40, and was outbid overnight. Will make a decision this arvo whether or not I'll drop another $40 on it.
 
Starting to get a few in hand. Will post pics later. Unimpressed with the true 1/1 cards. Nothing shiny or special about them like the ones from last year. Also I received a green falcao jersey today ... 130pt card crammed into one of those real floppy cheap old slim line not even 20pt top loaders and in a flimsy plastic envelope with no padding and of course it's damaged aoi_sola or something is the ebay user. Avoid, what an absolute d-bag. If you don't want to spend 20c on a top loader don't sell cards!
 
Actually to follow up on that, even my 1/1 and tim howard purple auto came without top loaders from uk seller gezza_chezza. At least they were in penny sleeves and secured in pretty tough cardboard and a decent bubble mailer. Fcuk sakes people... Top loaders!

UK sellers are notorious for no toploaders. Always well protected though (most of the time).
 
@shawnkemp40 Bro that's the same thing I was pissed off about today, UK sellers never using top loaders. Here's how mine came:

On a side note I ended up wining all the Topps Vault Blank Back Liverpool cards, how's this, the Skrtal cards cost me more than the Gerrard :mad:
