2008 Topps A&G Rip Card

[Bullpride]

So I pulled an A&G 2008 rip card out of one of my two hobby boxes (Bought from Blowout cards thanks guys). I haven't opened the second box yet. Still working on putting all my 2008 Topps series 1 jumbo box in order and figuring out exactly what I had. It came in and I couldn't help but get into some packs.

Anyways I pulled a 27/99 Jarrod Saltalamacchia rip card and after much debate with myself (several hours last night and sleep on it as well) and lots of reading different forums I decided to take the plunge and rip it. Out popped a wood grain Hiroki Kuroda mini. Now it is my understanding that these are 1/1 and fairly rare. How do I go about valuing this or finding someone that is interested. Inquiring minds (me) want to know.

Thanks
Mike

Yes they are 1 of 1's and with kuroda being a rookie there should be some decent interest,I would suggest putting it on ebay and let it ride you should do nicely.Take care Steve

The woods can go for a lot of money. The best thing to do to find the value is to let it ride on ebay. Hopefully a couple of player collectors (if he has any) will fight over it. I would think $60-$100, maybe more, who knows on ebay?

Must be good advice if its coming form a Rays fan ;0) Odd my 1st to replies are from a Yankees and Rays fan haha. So I guess Ill throw it up on Ebay starting at $50 or so and see where it lands

Honestly I would start it at .99 and let it ride, the lower price should attract more bidders and perhaps start a bidding war. Either way, nice pull. Congrats!

I agree, the card will sell for more, even it takes a bit longer to get up there.

New to eBay really. So a card like this won't end up selling for .99?

[bblair_2002]

No it won't. Japanese collectors will probably go nuts for it. Seems they have bigger pocketbooks than us Americans do when it comes to buying cards lol.

You can always stick a reserve price on it wheny ou're listing it. A reserve price is the price you won't let the card sell for less than. So if you set a $100 reserve for example, and the bidding doesn't get that high, then the card doesn't get sold

Did't even think about that. Thanks Cardinals Fan
