Fleer retro - thoughts ?

[ekalb]

Yep your prices sound pretty good. I see DA are out of stock completely currently and I imagine when they have more in stock they are going to be around the $250USD mark

 

[AusRam]

Hearing crazy stuff about the buying of this product and what prices it's running at - seems it's heading towards $300 if the hype continues....

Still struggle to see the value myself...unless you pulled a NAR! or something, you mightn't be getting much....

That being said, I'm primarily a sports collector, so maybe there's a fervor for the character foils and inserts out there that I'm not really aware of...

 

[AusRam]

Suppose this would make a $300 box worthwhile...if someone actually buys it!

Looks like it sold for $1500! Some of these inserts are selling really well. If you land a Jambayla or one of the rarer PMG's I think you could recoup your box break price itself pretty easily. Hopefully my minibox arrives tomorrow

Didn't finish, looks like it got yanked, so likely it was sold off ebay I guess.

Some of the Green PMG's are selling for good $$ too. Still have not seen many sketches I am overly fond of in from this product though.

The green wolverine is up to 980 with 2 hours to go. Yes I saw that Nar sketch. Nice pull. Cant wait to see what we get when we open tonight. Will post it up when we are done

 

[AusRam]

Yeah, the sketches haven't thrilled me so far, they're just not of the level of Premier or even some of the MGB's in my mind... Hopefully Mr & Mrs Trading Cards wil prove me wrong !

And that's just insane money for foil cards without some auto or patch on them.... Honestly not sure ANY card made today is really worth $980 ???

It really is! That is rare Andrew Luck auto money. Crazy $$!

Fingers crossed you pull a Glebe sketch. This one is simply amazing:

Yeah, that is nice..same with the other Glebe - http://www.ebay.com/itm/MICK-GLEBE-...735?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item58a4075fbf They really seem to have made an effort, like they always do...

But a lot of them (the majority actually) don't look at all "premium" and more like something from Bronze age or similar ...nor are they selling for all that much either much. The nicer ones by the lesser name artists seem to be going for only 30-40.

 

[ekalb]

This is very true.The inserts seem to be selling for more or similar. Red PMGs for example seem to average around the $25 mark which I have seen a few of these sketches sell for also.

 

[Mr & Mrs Trading Cards]

Our gem cards

 

[AusRam]

Looks like you got some pretty decent looking sketches in those...

 

[Mr & Mrs Trading Cards]

Sketches. Printing plate and jambalaya. Pretty happy with them. Especially the thor. Was1 more sketch also but its gone straight into the personal collection

 

[AusRam]

Yeah, that Thor is pretty impressive... Just out of curiosity, what/who was your PC add ?

 

[Mr & Mrs Trading Cards]

Jomar bulda gambit

 

[AusRam]

Aleways good to get aPC hit...well done. So what was your overall impression of Retro ?

 

[Mr & Mrs Trading Cards]

I love it the art is amazing. The base set is awesome insert cards are nice. Its a big set though. And with the price raised already dont think we will get any more
