I want to say 8,000. Maybe 7,500. Prisms are basically half that. I don’t know about x-fractors, since they were Mega box exclusives (10 per box).

Any idea on the Negative refractor?

Been buying Vlad regular refractors all day. $50-60 apiece when Tatis from the same set is 5-6x that? These should be $100 by opening day easy.

I love that the Update Refractors are /250. Those have quietly blown up the last little while.

The purple odds are 1:88, and the negative odds are 1:66. So that would put the negatives a third more of the production.

An Update xfractor sold the other day for about $50. I was so annoyed that I let that one slip. Probably won’t see that price again anytime soon.

I was happy I picked up a PSA 10 Purple Refractor 27/175 for $125.

The Stadium Club rainbow foil auto was a must-have. I’ll never have a ‘19 Sapphire purple, so a second-year seems like a nice consolation.

I have one more in the mail, but otherwise I’m officially retiring from Vlad collecting. There’s just too much good stuff out there. If I don’t stop now, it’ll be the end of me.

Quoted for posterity.

That Sterling Black #7/10 sure took off at the end. My sad attempt was pushed aside by the first wave, and left off the record. Ended close to the BGS-10 that I also missed. My red with the tiny scratch is still at BGS, hoping for a min gem if they hold surface to a '9'.

Yeah, I bid on that, too. I thought the fact that it was $21 with about 15 minutes left meant I was going to get a steal... Wrong!

And then the camo went $705 shortly after, which seemed a bit low. The Yordan camo sold the other day for $825, and some Bichette camos have sold for a lot more than that.

Unfortunately it went for much more than I thought it would. I was the second highest bidder.

I definitely thought it would go for more but I tend to stay away from raw cards that are displayed with a wall of graded cards behind it. I tend to believe the card has near zero chance a gemming since it was most likely cherry picked.

US1 parallels/SPs/SSPs and even NNOs are much lower than I expected them to be with the recent surge in price on all the chrome type rookie cards. People are digging the shinny stuff as of lately.

Here it is, my last-ever Vlad purchase.

I have always scoffed at Gypsy Queen, but I’m in love with the ‘20 set—at least, with the autos and box-topper Chrome parallels. I certainly couldn’t pass on this red Chrome /5.

Okay, if I were to come across a US1 Clear for like $100, I’d crack. Or if dmanrico wanted to trade me the platinum 1/1 for my house, I’d consider that. But otherwise, I’m going to hold steady.

Pulled this from a 2019 Update Jumbo box this week. First jumbo box I've ever opened, so have to think it's all downhill from here.
