Is the design of that 2018 real one red ink the most disappointing Acuna card ever made?

I don't know. The borderline mugshot that is the 2020 Update SP gives it a run for its money.

SupermanBrandon · 09-11-2023, 09:19 PM

Both are awful. I dont mind the heritage photo but that red ink auto...oof.

2020 update SP is my least favorite Topps Acuna card. This Panini card is my least favorite ever.

The "Active AU" moniker actually stands for active player autograph.

I love how it looks on paper stock.

Lol, guess I had the UD HoloGrFx AU/Gold parallels on the brain.

That set is horrendous. The Vlad Jr. is my favorite.

Looks like he's about to go bake a damn pie...

I've found it actually presents much better in a SGC slab. No matter what your opinion on grading or the different grading companies, I would consider sending that card to SGC. The black matte border helps the autograph peer through. Otherwise, you really can't tell the card is autographed at all unless you're familiar with the image.

TheGZA · 09-12-2023, 11:15 AM

Holy smokes, Phoneboy. Unbelievable collection.

Out of curiosity do you have a single favorite (based on looks, not necessarily value)?

Very very nice Ronnie’s can’t wait to see what cards post after he reaches 40/70

Lol they won't disappear. There have been mulitple reasonably priced Sapphires available on any given day for the entire season. For whatever reason they are not hard to get and people love to sell them

Thats because overall the market isn’t very good
Acuna having an insane season yet his prices really aren’t moving

When they finally do, the Bat Down Sapphires that are reasonably priced could easily dissapear. There are always only 2-3 cards available at “market” value

But we can disagree

Lol. It's been years like this. An MVP and 70 SBs isn't enough to do it, it aint happening for a long time.

Whatever crowd deals in the Sapphires uses it as liquidity. You can think whatever you want but that's just fact borne out over a very long time. A card this rare and on this high a pedestal should not be so readily available but it just is and always has been. I've said before in this thread that I wonder when there will be a tipping point of enough collectors acquiring Sapphires that aren't going to use it as liquidity that the availability dries up. We are obviously nowhere close. It's the reason it can't rise in value. There's always a couple people wanting to dump their Sapphires at the going rate

ScooterD · 09-12-2023, 11:58 AM

The clear PSA 10 has to be the crown jewel of that group, right?

bgildersleeve · 09-12-2023, 12:19 PM

What are the guesses on market value of the psa 10 2018 topps chrome
Red /5 auto? I have a red wave /5 and starting to consider selling it.

Got a lot of other acunas and thinking about diversifying but hard to let it go.
