Ronald Acuña - Page 1536

panamamyers · 04-30-2021, 04:45 PM

I see a 2019 sapphire orange acuna to 25 recently went for $1800 in PSA 10. Any thoughts on what a purple to 10 psa 10 would fetch?

There used to be a small museum dedicated to him in Missouri close to the Laura Ingalls homestead. Learned a lot about him. Don’t know if it’s still there or not.

Agree. My #1 favorite Ronnie card. Pulled one in my first pack of HHN and it completely sucked me back into collecting.

I hadn't opened a single pack since 2011. I wasn't even sure what I had pulled at first.

Then...I bought 4 more single boxes on Ebay, and 3 of the 4 had a Ronnie action. I remember being pissed that one of them didn't. Huuuuge level of unbridled entitlement there.
12 cases later I had a total of 8.

Wowsers!

I only have two...a PSA 10 and a BGS 9.5 with all 9.5 subgrades. My favorite card of him

BUY MOAR!!!!!

comicbooksgo · 05-01-2021, 11:24 AM

Well, I did buy a couple more well centered ones on Ebay, and since PSA has been holding the 10 hostage I bought a Psa 10 and a 9 to satisfy the itch.

This card perpetually confuses me. I can't decide if people are actually paying thousands of dollars for it, or if they are confused thinking it's the standard sized card. Anyone here ever paid big for this?

This one at just over $700 seems legit..

HarryLime · 05-01-2021, 01:27 PM

Just because I like to show it off every once in a while. I figure with the 1:20,000 odds there's a chance this is unique. Either way, it's pretty cool.

PSA should slab that Arthur. they slab 80s cellos, so they can slab that as well

My Acuna collection pales in comparison to most of you, but just received this one in the mail and am really excited to have it.

I dig the Gold Label. Snapped up a 1/1 last year. It was on Ebay for maybe 2 minutes.

I wonder what kind of conversations there would be had Topps made/sold direct 5x7s back in 2011...if there were 5x7 Updates of Trout #/49 and #/10 and alternate images #/49 and #/10. Guess we'll see in 10 years whether Acuna (as well as all the big 2018/2019 rookies that had 5x7 versions made) lives up to his Trout-like billing and whether collectors of his 5x7 2018 Update cards made a good purchase given the price paid for those two.
