I can't believe these are still here.

Clearly underpriced. Convert to auction with $325K opening bid. Live bidding action available via pay-per-view for scrub donkeys. More gravy for seller.

 

[Blaster]

Hope the conclusion of this doesn't remain a mystery...

 

[Thomacetti]

....the positive benefits for the other opportunity outweigh the benefits of this collection in my current situation.

Going all in on bitcoins for life win ?
Hope all is well, whatever the outcome of this.

The CR cash and tourney sets were a personal sets of joshuadalton back the the blue wall days. He was a vendor on that site. He owned the rights to the High Roller artwork and the MGK mold. He was the one who sold MGK blanks, and would do the hotstamping (it’s how I got my Andy’s Palace set). Once BCC stopped selling to the public, he kinda quit, too. Eventually he sold everything including his personal sets.
I got full CR cash and tourney sample sets during my time on the blue wall.

Blue wall those were the days. Good good wish we could recover those threads !

Comics. Classic cars. Magic the Gathering cards. Baseball cards. Modern first editions. Vintage toy collections. A ton, actually.

True! And probably multiple-connecting. Hard to sell a multiple-collection though

 

[Changster]

Wow… good luck w the sale man.

325,000??? You'd think they were a couple of racks of Big Top Poker!

Yep. He used the word “hobby”, so I left out things like wine, art and more mainstream collectibles.

Know plenty of people for whom wine collecting is a hobby, while for others it is a business.

 

[Taghkanic]

(I stick to collecting beer and bourbon… in my stomach.)

 

[raynmanas]

Magic the Gathering cards.

i'm sorry, did you say Black Lotus?

Audiophiles - I’ve seen speaker cables for $50K - lol.

And cartridges for $12,000. Hi-Fi is another hobby of mine and looking through my WhatHi-Fi catalog is wild.

You mean like paying $8 - $80 for little clay discs from casinos that don’t exist?

Sounds too good to be true

 

[utgtrash]

wouldn't audiophile level equipment be a better investment, or less bad investment than poker chips? i would think those prices have probably gone up even more than chip prices, no?

I would love to hear/feel the sound that may be produced from such equipment, that’s for damn sure!
Could only imagine.

No I mean paying hundreds or thousands per meter for something that a lamp cord will do just as well

Acoustic Signature makes a vinyl record player that retails at $200,000.

The Robb Report has done a piece on the most expensive speaker cables in the world.

Like chippers, audiophiles come in all kinds of income sizes and shapes, and with varying levels of price tolerance for what they think will be the most amazing option.

Somewhere, an audiophile who plays poker has just heard about a 500-chipset that sold for $4,000, and just said to his friend, “Suckers. Paying thousands when a $20 set from Target would do.”

 

[Eriks]

Well the analogy still holds, I guess

 

[Eriks]

My point is that my position is that high end audio cords are a hoax and it’s not possible to measure any actual difference between them and whatever.

Doesn’t enjoyment count as a return on your money? Personally I think most purchases I’ve made in life were for my own likes and enjoyment first.

That collection looks amazing. Looked up a few of them. 325 is what my house was listed for when I purchased it. I could always sell the house ‍
