*sigh* I really really want that Giant Growth, maybe I will jump for it, maybe I wont ... more than likely I will and lose XD
I'd like to using as a mandatory starting point to collect all Giant Growths.
Maybe I can convince someone to release their grip on one of the foil test print pre 6th frame craziness ones.

I'll get em scanned then, it may be easiest for me to travel home.
Catherine's scanner has CRUD on it haha, so anytime I actually scan something, it looks like it has white dots all over it. #-o

Assuming the other Summer Magic BoPs out there are in Mint Condition, then this is the only Ex- condition Summer BoP. Under that line of thinking, I could see how this could be worth $1500 or more since it is one of a kind....on the other hand, everything I just wrote up until now makes absolutely no sense.

I think it has alot to do with the way most sellers (in this case it was queensdomain) post their auctions these days.
Posting twenty+ rares and good uncommons all together at the same time will drive the prices down on most of the cards.
Most bidders have a hard time being able to afford one $350+ cards let alone twenty.
Also if you post three $1000+ cards with good uncommons at the same time the uncommons will suffer low prices because their not the main focus of bidders.
I say break up the auctions for the rares to about five a week, it gives most bidders a chance to scrounge up more dead presidents.
Another thing is posting all the auctions with the same ending time.
In some ways it's a good thing, it keeps sniping down to a minimum (hell i even do it myself sometimes).
But if you want the your auctions to make more cash they should all end at different times.
Just my opinions. :wink:
Darren.
I have enough cards to stack them all up, and commit suicide off the top!
