Michael: Not going to pay those ridiculous asking prices on the 'bay? lol

Looking for Kyle Busch hits....but I think I'll wait until the excitement dies down.

I agree most of the prices are kinda crazy. I did pick up a Burton already triple authentic numbered to 10 at a good price...

I'll post pics when I receive a few more. The FiveStar prices are dropping like the US StockMarket.... Just purchased a AWESOME Hamlin triple authentic for $10.00!!!!!! Alot of people are gonna be upset at the racing market after this one is over....

Check out my listings on the 'bay.

Have a couple nice Burton's on there....and I agree with you 100-percent on the prices dropping. Everyone should have waited one week before purchasing.

Love the Book card and the auto... Watching both and plan on bidding...

With the prices of thr FiveStar singles dropping so fast, I wonder if the box prices will follow? I doubt it but anything can happen...

I don't see the box prices dropping. The distributor's cost was $450.00 per box.

I do see the possibility of unopened boxes being for sale at Card Shows a year from now.

As far as the cost of singles, at the Card Show I did last weekend, you could pick-up singles for almost next to nothing. Alot of ball and stick guys picked up the Five Star product thinking they could flip them easily. Sorry guys, unlike the high-dollar baseball and football cards, the NASCAR collector really was not ready for this product.

Alot of it, I'm sure is timing. Way too close to Christmas on this release, plus are people actually starting to realize it's a lot better to have suckers bust open the product at a rediculous price, and then picking up the scraps on ebay? I've been doing it for years, and I'm happy doing so. Sure you miss the excitement of opening, but too many disappointing breaks over the years smartened me up.

AMEN BROTHER! LOL I've been doing the same thing. Not only for my PC but also on nice traders. Lets do the math.... $600.00 for a box with a few cards in it. I've been paying on average $40.00 give or take for my FiveStar Burtons and as low as $5.00 for tradebait..... Gotta love EBAY!
