With all of the trading that I have been doing lately, my EBAY purchases have been few and far between. I have bid on a few items, but did not get very aggressive with my bidding so I did not win anything other than a small 2021 Bowman Draft Cardinals lot. Prices are still higher than what I want to pay for singles or box breaks, so I have been hunting for lots. Most will come with duplicates, but those will be used for trade bait or hopefully for some in person autographs later this summer in Peoria.
I won this lot on January 13th from a seller in New York. It arrived in Illinois on the 15th. Talk about a quick turnaround. All cards were in penny sleeves, put in a team bag, and placed between 2 pieces of cardboard. Wish all sellers were this good. Here is what I received for a little of $6 delivered.
I received at least 2 copies of every Cardinals paper card, some 3.
I received 1 base Chrome and 1 refractor. The Herrera refractor was a nice surprise as the auction scan looked like it was just a base Chrome.
My lone insert was of the Cardinals #1 draft pick from 2021. McGreevy is one of the those safe draft picks that has a low ceiling/high floor potential. The Cardinals most likely picked him to save draft pool money for higher upside picks from the lower rounds. I would guess he will turn into a bullpen arm before he reaches St. Louis. Still hope to get a chance to watch him pitch this summer.
