There has been a few 1st Edition Base Booster Boxes showing up lately.
This auction at Huggins and Scott ends in 10 hours and is currently at $40,000 .
There is 3 for sale on eBay. 2 fixed price and 1 auction.
Has there ever been this many in recent years?

I wonder what it will end at. Given the 23% buyers premium I estimate it will go up to a price of 45000 leading to a price of 56700 before sales tax.
$80k+ easily. I would not be surprised if it broke 100k, but given that there are three legitimate boxes on the market that might dilute the buyer pool a bit.

At one stage mid last year there was 2 on ebay and one at auction with huggins and scott.
And one on ebay ending in 2 days. Wonder if any will go for the 100k mark
I don’t see an auction for one on Ebay. Could you please link it

The beautiful “bid % activity with the seller” of the bidders.

I dont think that looks like shilling…
The people dropping 50-100k on a box like this are probably not bidding on pokemon cards every day.

Interesting that there are 3 up right now. Buyers probably not dabbing in all three unless it’s more of an investor buying them up.

I bid on probably 1 thing a month, every bid of mine would say 100%. That doesnt mean shilling, just that they dont buy much stuff

Watch the 20 seconds I linked to
I wanted it - put in the first bid and $51k bid, but… going to see a vacation home tomorrow with the family. Crazy to think they are on the same level of decision for investment
