Need advice on potential Crosby purchase

[runfromabear]

So, I got a text from a friend today trying to sell me a Crosby jersey for
$75. The jersey is from 04-05 ITG Heroes & Prospects Numbered DM-SC Double Memorabilia (Crosby in Team Canada Uniform) and has both a full white swatch and one black/ white swatch. I think Beckett listed it as numbered out of 30 although he said there is no seriel number on the card.

I don't really have $75 bucks to spend on a non pc card at this point although I feel this is a really good deal.

My question are.

1. Do you think this is a real good price for this card?

2. Do you think I could re-sell it online for more and how much more?

What are your thoughts?

Found a guy who is selling one on e-bay for a ridiculous price. Anyway, Posted the link so you can see a picture of the card.

if you feel the price is good go for it, if your going to going to resell it i would not hold my breath hopeing to make more than what you paid for it. but thats just my opinion

I agree with this, though...the fact that it's a Team Canada card is really the X-Factor that could have it go for more than $70. Without it, it's just a Sidney Crosby dual jersey card, print run or not.

If you're only looking to flip it, I'd say caveat emptor...you may break even, you may lose a few bucks, or you may win out. I don't think you're losses will be huge though if you do lose (since I figure it would probably be a $60-70 sale at the lowest.) If I were a Crosby collector, however, I'd pay $70 for it given how rarely that thing must show up at a reasonable price (less than $500 BIN )

If you think it is a good deal then I would say go for it. You can either sell it down the road for a loss, profit or break even but at the same time you can hold onto it to possibly trade it for a PC card. I am not sure what you collect but I don't imagine you would have a hard time trading a Crosby card such as the one you metion.
