Is GU dead and are we oblivous to US trends???

Oxymoron much? A card is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it.

hah yes it is for the time being, but i personally beleive that GU is a fad, and when it is long gone or completely common, value will return to scarcity primarily.
when i said they were worth more, i was referring to beckett value. on a side note, i posted a thread some time back rubbishing beckett as outdated and claiming ebay was the only way to judge value; i was consequently flamed.

Are you serious??

I agree with you 100%. As I prevoiusly said, something is only worth what someone will pay for it!! Beckett prices are a joke. When has anyone ever sold a card for the value Beckett has told them it's worth??

Back in the 92/93 season.
The memories of those times when l would be rapped to get a Shaq or Mourning rookie standout.
How times have changed.

still though Beckett is and should be treated as guide, and as guide it does an excellent job of 'guiding' the reader on cards which have a higher or lower value per set

digging up an old thread that I came across when searching for something else. Thought it is still a very valid argument and if anything has gotten more out of control.
