I agree on CSG slabs -- they are by far the nicest slabs in hand. Crystal clear plastic, really makes the card stand out since the rest of the slab is nearly invisible.

Yeah, I'm surprised how nice it is in hand. Need to do more research but now need to consider sending in some of my raw cards I just want better protected to CSG.

I'm stuck with all my raw high end Bowman Sterling Yordan cards until PSA can hopefully lower price. As I don't want to mix slabs on same card brand on rainbow cards.

Got the Stadium Foil card you gave me a tip on. My first CSG slab. I really like the clear finish on the slab. Great card in hand too!

Rainbow!

Sometimes I regret that on my Yordan chrome partial rainbow. But then again, it's incomplete so I suppose it doesn't really matter.

Last few Yordans trickled in today. Originally wasn't going to get into his Bowman Chrome set, but the orange popped up and I couldn't help myself. Unfortunately has some edge damage on the back side, would probably get a PSA 8 at best with that and the centering.

That FS is a pretty looking baseball card!!

Just about the last decent Yordan I have. Time to move it?

Very nice! I own zero 2019 but that's a great card.

If you're asking its probably a good time to sell.

You're a trend setter.

Nice. Really digging these FS parallels ever since you posted the rainbow. Orange auto is on my list now!

I agree! I really feel it's an underrated insert set.

There are fewer parallels with the autos. I did see the super was posted at one point for $1,600, then it was taken down. I am content with what I have... the full base set and all of the autos sans the super.

While Yordan walked, this guy is swinging for the fences!

I’m actually a little confused. I’m assuming yours is the one that went for $139.50, which has me wondering how it slipped through at that price???

Yep, that's it. I am betting the low res scan of the front only with no back pic could be why it went that low. Usually that's a red flag and why I almost didn't go for it. I took a chance because none of the seller's other listings have reverse side photos either.

It does have a decent dent on the back left edge you can feel if you run your finger down it, but for that price I can't complain on a PC card. I was expecting some kind of flaw besides the centering.

Thought that's yours. But looked back and you have the non auto Super. I've been looking at superfractor trends today. This seems way to high for a 2021 super which I guess is what you are referring to.

But days may be numbered to get 2020 rookie supers for under 2k. That was possible not to long ago for many of them. Think I paid 1800 for my Sterling Super non auto.

Yep, that's what I'm referring to since they are closer to $500-1K. I paid $500 for mine.

I wish I had put up more for a rookie super of his, that's definitely a regret of mine.

Lol. No idea how he has 2 triples this week

I was just about to post that. Also the 2019 Sterling Super showed up for sale.

Wish these were on .99 cent auctions.

Love some great cards showing up. Need my /5 Sterling Auto to pop up for sale!!!

The Topps Chrome super is obviously “the one,” from a market perspective. But I like this one better.

All of these high end Yordans being listed at the same time is giving me anxiety.
