I just bought one (still waiting for it to arrive), but I would buy those for $31 all day long.

Absolutely it is !! One of my favorite Vlads. I graded one of mine (PSA 10) then sold it (stupid) to pay for my other two raw copies. Wish I’d kept it tho now but regardless these look awesome !!!

I’m pretty deep into the Vlad thing, but I believe this is my first green parallel of him.

I’m still not a huge fan of the bright green with the bright blue uniform, but I couldn’t resist at the price I got it for. There are still deals to be had!

Really happy with this pickup. For some reason I like Flawless much more than Immaculate or NT. Everything in Flawless looks clean and elegant. Never any overworked designs. Don't think I'll be doing the rainbow but quite happy landing the Holo Platinum Blue.

I had the Acuna RC I bought for $50 sold it for $120. Totally regret that sale. That card was amazing.

I still won’t buy anything Panini, but the Flawless is definitely an eye-catcher. (The Vlad/Bichette dual auto is spectacular.) I would also rank Flawless ahead of Immaculate and Treasures.

I’m the same. I’m not big on Panini but Flawless is simply their nicest designed set. This is the only Panini Vlad I held on to. Everything else Panini has been long sold. This card, however, is just beautiful.

Speaking of the Flawless dual auto, the 1/1 just listed. This is one Panini card I would love to have...

Quiet here. Are we having a Vladdy dip?

Picked this up for so much less than my snipe. Thank you, dips!

Yeah, I’m over it.

Okay, fine, that’s not true. My most recent pickups are either duplicates of stuff I have already shown or are still in the mail.

Also, the Dominican Winter League is over, so we don’t have any highlights of light-tower power to ogle over.

But I do love the Sterling pickup!

I hit the gold auto in a break. Looks out for delivery tomorrow . Popped for a good team in the break as a Christmas gift to myself .

I watched a ton of break recaps because obviously I was curious to bust more of this . I can confidently say the gold vlad was BY FAR the best card I saw hit in 10 hobby breaks

Not a huge day, but I’m glad to welcome these into the fold.

I had ignored pink refractors up until now, but the prices for Soto ‘18 pink refractors makes me think ther Vlads have some nice potential—even if the Soto activity is partially driven by his rookie-card shortage.

This pink is a little short. (You can tell in the picture.) Would someone have tried to trim a pink Chrome?? Are Chromes even trimmable?

I recall a big to-do about a lot of parallels in this product being cut short to a point that PSA has been alerted (whatever the hell that means) and lots of folks are aware so no biggie.
