Nice little ST warmup. I'll take it!

That gold minted is a beauty.
Any interest in moving it?

No interest in moving my Ohtani cards! Hoping he has another amazing year!

Nice collection! If Ohtani continues doing what he does, I think that Stadium Club Gold Minted Refractor will be one of his best and hardest non-flagship/chrome RC's to find. It's definitely in my top 3. I love looking at this one.

I have never been that fortunate! I feel lucky when I can get one for $80 or less. I have missed on on some lower priced BIN's. I think last year I paid as much as $133 for a raw US1 rainbow foil. It seems to me that the rainbow foils are undervalued compared to the Topps chrome refractors (especially when compared to other players). Maybe I am missing something (rainbow foils are harder to gem?)?

Rainbow foils are indeed not easy to gem. Topps Chrome 150 variations are a cake walk in comparison. Rainbow foils from 2018 also don't get close to the love gold /2018s get (which are even harder to gem) so it's no surprise this is the case with Ohtani. I don't see that changing unfortunately but I love the rainbow foils.

In your opinion which should be more valuable Series 2 rainbow foil (PR~2500) or Topps chrome refractors (PR~5k) raw vs raw (or PSA10 vs PSA10)? Same question with Topps update vs Topps chrome update?

PSA day. All the grades I expected, no complaints. Just slabbing up the PC stuff because that's what I prefer.

It's a beauty for sure! One of the best inserts/parallels every year!

I never buy games to keep sealed as collection (mostly play on downloads nowadays too), but might need to make an exception for this year's The Show.

I really don't want to spend the money twice, but yeah, it's tempting.

The 2022 S1 SSP is so cool looking, and I feel like they are still undervalued.
I should probably get one before my fear becomes true of them spiking in value.

Does anyone know the print run of the 2021 Stadium Club Photographers Proof? Cardboard connection says 1:2 cases but they aren't numbered.
