dont worry, ive put in several phone calls to see.

first, they were on the playground.
next time i called it was snack time.
third call resulted in “its nap time, sir”
final call, there was some diaper inncident going on and i just left an obscene message.

no use in crying over spilt milk, i guess.

Understandably these don't get the love of Topps/Bowman stuff, but I love 'em.

open seat at my lunch table bc i dig them!

i think they did a great job disgusing the no logos with this and the rated rookie cards! but to be honest, i probably wouldnt have snagged them if they didnt.

rr’s have so much nostalgia for me:

I think you've single handedly doubled the price of these cards. Not a bad strategy when there are only 76 I guess. Hope it pans out. Great looking card either way. Not sure I'd pay $400. I tried something similar with 2017 Judge Camo /25. I think I own 5, including both PSA 10s... we'll see how that goes.

I picked up an Ohanti Independence Day for S2 during the season for <$100.

I bought only two Indy's ($450 and $475). There were three other sales $510, $475 and $428 prior to my purchases. I bought only one black parallel at $440. There were other sales at $550, $600, $625 and $725. Same with Acuna. I bought only one of his black parallel at $225. Most recent sales were $636 and $699.

Soto's Topps HHN black/69 have almost doubled in price over the past few weeks and I have not bought a single one of them. Not being disrespectful, What makes you believe that I single handedly doubled the price on these cards? I bought only one Acuna TC Sapphire #698 (Print run of 285) at $100 and they are currently selling for $300. How do you explain 200% increase in Acuna's TC Sapphire price when I purchased only 1 of 285 cards. There is an overall increase in price of Soto's and Acuna's low numbered cards due to strong demand and I have nothing to do with it. I am only purchasing few duplicates hoping to sell one of them for a profit in the future.

Someone here bought four Soto's black parallels and no one said anything along the same lines that he single handedly doubled the price of these cards. I bought only one black parallel

The thing with cards produced at such low numbers a single person can manipulate the market with only a few purchases. I personally dont think there is anything wrong with this approach (its capitalism). I would expect it to be the case on cards in an upward demand trend as we are seeing with soto/acuna parallels.

pcptrade doesnt appear to be selling any of his recent pickups, at least not yet, and simply with that he would not be the reason for the surprisingly high increase in value we are seeing.

I didn't say anything was wrong with it either. And mentioned I have also hoarded my own low number flagship parallels. I just said I hope it works out. That is all.
No judgement passed.
