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.

Hoping for a good outing today.

I missed out on a rainbow of his that went for under $30

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?

Cool so my MLB TV subscription is over today? Awesome.

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.

Big money card in that Sapphire - I love it! The SSP is a great looking card as well

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