The jumbo box aka HTA (with the 3 autos) has sold for around 2200-2300 if you can find it at that price. Our host has them at 3k box/24k sealed case of 8. Could have got a case back in the day for the price of a box today lol.

5K for a non-10 seems like a lot for that time

The resiliency of his cards was surprising to me, and many original collectors (~2018). Even in his darkest times of 2020, his cards never truly tanked. I suspect that his Japanese career was always going to provide him a decent floor.

Oh, and I bought it as a bgs 9.5/9. I came to the conclusion I'll never sell it so crossing it to a PSA 9 was a no-brainer.

9's are just Fine, Sir!

you bring up a great point about his pre-MLB days.
i think its easy for those of us over here to forget or
not even realize that he was a super star before 2018

I think it's just a US thing to not fully acknowledge non-MLB games. Many people have argued against Ichiros stats saying they don't matter because it wasn't in the majors.
