O-Pee Chee is a lower end set similar to Score in football or Hoops in basketball. It is one of the first sets with the "new" class of rookies so they do good initially but quickly get overshadowed by other releases like Prizm etc does to those other brands, it's also considered a "kids" or "collectors" set which has been declared a bad thing in the hobby. For those reasons it's not considered a great hold, same as people prob wouldn't suggest holding a Wemby Hoops, although these same people likely won't admit what they sold their Mahomes or Mcdavid Score/OPC for compared to now lol. The last part goes for everything on here, it's basically the board motto, you'll be seeing the same said about his YG, people have FOMO so it does make sense to sell while hot and buy back down the road, but there's exceptions. Collect what you like though, I think anything numbered or SSP like the 3D or Blank Backs are ok holds, and even anything base in Chicago and not Team Canada isn't terrible. If buying though I think Series 2 release will be a sweet spot, not much time until then for Bedard to get THAT many more point lol and everyone will be panic selling to pay for S2/because his YG is out.
