✹The PERENNIAL Shohei Ohtani Thread✹ - Page 1102

I made a few sales of things and won a 2020 Panini Sky high Ohtani auto. Just a shade over a grand after fees. It's a sticker auto, I'll share a photo when it arrives or just look on eBay. I got the auto I wanted though, being before he switched to the version he is using now. (and the apparent NEW one in products.)

Everything aside, his auto has been my goal for a while, to go with an Ichiro IP I got a decade ago.

eBay authentication hit me and said oh there are a few little knicks not listed in the auction. Says I could get a refund or just take it.

What would ya'll do? They aren't big at all, I have no intention of getting rid of the card. I feel like it was a lower end price to get one at, especially just before the season begins. And I personally don't mind much and just want the card because I'm excited for the season.

PS: I'm excited to find out Mike Trout's autograph is much more affordable too in recent times. That's something I am really hoping to trade for.

I'm NEVER one to talk people out of things they like, and it seems like you're happy with what you got. At the same time, I can't not want to say to hold out for a licensed on card auto. We have at least a decade of Dodgers autos in front of us. I know it's not the auto you have on that sticker, but if this dropped a few hundred dollars, I'd take it every day of the week over a non licensed sticker.

If you want an earlier auto, some times these will get put up for cheap. It has the FULL auto you might like even more

Heck a buddy of mine recently picked up a 2019 Heritage Real One Blue Ink PSA 8 with a really clean auto at a show for $1,700. I'd save up a bit longer and shoot for something like that tbh.

If you're looking to sell, let me know.

I've been on a bit of a rookie cup kick lately.

ThoseBackPages · 02-25-2025, 07:52 PM

The CUP!!!!!!!

I appreciate it but I listed it on eBay a couple days ago, I ended up selling it in about 20 mins off eBay for 4K.

If you’re interested in a 2017 Immaculate collection Mahomes auto it’s the last card I have left to sell! lol

All this “save up” advice…I’m assuming this is discretionary/on the side fun money we’re talking?

If you haven't liquidated your 401k/IRAs to buy more Ohtani then can you call yourself a real fan??!

All in bro

Just to confirm, if it's ok:
$4k direct deal for a 2018 Ohtani Finest Auto PSA 8?

Yes that’s correct, in about 20 mins.

Damn I love those cups. Both the pitching and batting photos are fantastic. Happy I snagged all mine when they weren't so dang expensive!

Yep. Unfortunately, I wish I was collecting Ohtani as much as some of the other prospects in 2018.

2024 PSA 10 Sapphire just ended under $200. Supply is finally catching up with demand.

Love that he's practicing sliding with no hand on the ground. I guess we won't see a Trout-like SB dropoff - though I hope he does attempt less to stay fresh.

bub838 · 02-27-2025, 11:46 AM

I know a lot of the older folks won't understand this.. but I'm very excited.
Murakami x Ohtani cards...

sauceboy · 02-27-2025, 11:59 AM

Love it, but $120 is a lot for that set. The dual-auto of Murakami and Ohtani would be an amazing pull, though.

oooof. I didn't see the price. That's a lot for a 25 card base set + 1 numbered

This is pretty sweet.

Is it for sale yet?

JohnnyHatesJazz · 02-27-2025, 01:59 PM

Can't wait to get my Ohtani in. Sucks that it has to go from ny all the way to California and then back to pa where I live. Wish there was an eBay authenticator on the east coast.
