This Is What Happens When You Are An Idiot Shop Owner

Most of the JD Booty SP Authentic 3 colors have gone for around 30-40 bucks. This guy, who lives in "CARD CITY" thought that was a little low. Considering that Booty is a 6th rounder QB on a team that has been shopping for a TJack replacement, I wholeheartedly agree that he should try to get 500% of the real value of the card. I was going to offer 195, but I saw that he wasnt taking offers. Too bad really. Although the taupe pattern carpet in the background is a nice touch, CARPET-JO!

    Unless he revises his price downward, he will be sitting on that Booty for a loooooong time.


    Sorry, couldn't resist.

    I traded that card from the break to Holy Hitter, Gellman. I should have let you two go back and forth for it. ;)

    $196 isn't that high when you consider how rare the evnt-worn swatch on the card is. I mean, he probably only "wore" about 1,000 of these jerseys at the rookie premier, so there are only likely 100,000 possible swatches like this out there. You also need to factor in the fact that he isn't likely to see any significant playing time any time soon, which means he won't have many, if any actual game worn jerseys that can be cut up to put on cards.

    So $196 for an event worn jersey of a third string quarterback who won't likely see any real playing time any time soon is real reasonable given that there are probably only 100,000 swatches like this out there.

    I would have offered a lot for it, considering the massive book value it has.

    Hey but you never know, that card might turn out to be a real good investment. Remember what happens when QB's come out of nowhere (Tom Brady) This card would most likely be one of his more valuable.
