What's the verdict?

What did the WS win do for his hobby prices?

Thanks for this. I picked up 3, great pack to stash for low cost.

PSA 10 Kershaw Updates were selling for ~300 in April; they were selling for ~500 during the season and now selling for ~700.

The increase in value was slight; but I believe it will solidify his value for years to come; and you'll see casual growth like this for some-time. I haven't stopped buying his Update Gems or his Chrome Gems; but I am starting to sell everything that isn't a 10. Going for a long-term hold on around ~125 gem updates in total and four raw blacks.

Good to know. I am submitting a 2008 U&H Kershaw this week. Hoping for a 10. I also purchased a PSA 9 Gold UH for 550. I think that was a steal.

Seems like 1 gold card per pack. Can you get refractors or Blacks?

Anyway- I just treated myself to 2 of these. Thanks for the heads up.

no chrome or blacks in retail

Very true thank you.

And stinks about no chrome or blacks.

Those are only in hobby?

Interesting. I just got my first shipment and it seems like it would be really hard to search these other than the top and bottom cards. Although I guess I shouldn’t doubt the lengths to which some people will go...

Yes, Blacks and Chrome are hobby only. i do believe that the chromes were box toppers, but not 100% sure on that.

dfenno, sadly you are right, lots of shady characters out there

im not saying that they're all bad (the packs), but just something to keep in mind

At $90 per and 55 cards, you’re WAY better off just buying the Kershaw and/or Scherzer.
