    How big of a difference is the 8.5 presentation vs. the 6.5 in the latest gen slab? Are you putting a slabbed run together?
  29. 70s80sTimeMachine
    Great point. I tried Star Wars 1. Just some quick math as there are different ways you can plug the #s i.e. taking a mean average etc. But I'll just pull the highs. 9.8 on 12 sales in 2005, high was $485 9.8 on 47 sales in 2021, high was $8460 That's a multiple of 17.4X 8.5 on 9 sales in 2005, high was $51 8.5 on 82 salles in 2021 high was $676 That's a multiple of 13.25

    Good sharing on this data. I'm going to run similar # time period comparisons for SW1, some other not-so blockbuster keys and DC slabs as well.

    Nice pickups Just a friendly heads up; I have a Wells Fargo and Citi card(s) that pays unlimited 2% cash back, so sometimes if I'm in a pinch because of timing of the month but can't miss out some auction slabs, I just use the card and the vig is then only 1%.

    Do you have any Valiant pre unity SS 9.8s?
  33. 70s80sTimeMachine
    Yes cards!!!!!! I collected both sports/nonsports. I was able to not only get wholesale prices but a discount on top of that because of the family friend. I would work really hard to save up $$ and then it would be Xmas time ripping through a box. Those were awesome times. To this day I still have tons of cards. Did you by chance collect any of the Topps stickers? I remember creating a list of missing stickers I needed in order to complete the book and then mailing that along with payment to Italy!!!

    Good question and additionally, quick napkin math; a $1.8M valuation is already a approximate 29% premium vs. cost basis. I realize the slab was purchased 6 months ago but does that seem reasonable? I suppose we will find out what the market thinks when the shares start trading. But if they are able to fill this offering what happens to that premium capture? Just gets allocated to new acquisitions? **Actually I just realized that might be the valuation the buyer from September established in order to sell the stake off.

    No guts no glory. Please continue to update the thread on your experiences; in particular when it starts trading. Thanks!
