Okay, a snapshot of the LT Joe Thomas cards, now that the market has settled down a good deal. I splashed around and made a bit more money on these, but the big hit was right at the start, correctly banking on the initial enthusiasm to get the set done... that hit (buying high and selling super high) on the 88 cleared me a lot of cash.

Prices (approximate based on recent sales) now:

85 22,000
86 35,000
87 46,000
88 80,000
90 155,000

So, the complete group of these needed to build the set for the 92 "boss" card totals roughly 338K. The 92 card is selling for right around that price now...maybe even a little cheaper (early this morning in the 290s, right now in the 330s). So...building this set is not sufficiently profitable to make it worthwhile, without really working to get the components at a discount.

I got my 90 card at about 130K yesterday, and I plan to just sit on it and start him at LT for the indefinite future - like, probably, until February. I just don't have the means to push for the indefinite boost from moving from 90 to 92 at the cost of 150-200K in coins. I can do a lot with that much cash. LT is settled, in my mind, for now.
