Before COVID, I'd be able to buy Kellogg's cards at good prices. 1971s and 1975s certainly didn't always come in good condition, but most anything else was around. I really wanted to buy four of the five lots that ended yesterday. Why? First, these type of lots rarely show up.
Second, and yes this should be first, I have a problem. Since I am not a regular dealer at shows or online, what would I do to recoup my money quickly? That never mattered a few years ago because buying a lot was almost always at a price that didn't break the bank.
These lots below, other than the huge 1982 lot, would not have been overly expensive three years ago. I put in a few bids and watched as the amount quickly flew far beyond a price that I could afford.
I was especially stunned by the prices of the 1974, 1978 and 1982 lots mainly because of the players shown.
On a positive note, a 1974 set that looked really nice sold for $99. By the time you would buy a Ryan, Rose and Jackson individually, you'd be close to $100.
Have you noticed that I want to be buying Kellogg's cards and I am having less luck with that in the last few years?
I have saved searches for 1970 and 1975 Kellogg's, but don't even bother looking at them anymore. I'll wait until things settle down a little more.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't pull up 4 of the 5 lots but did see the 1978 lot. Wow is all can say.
ReplyDeleteI've noticed it of late. It's really annoying
