Just watched an 18-19 Topps Chrome regular Messi refractor go for $82...it’s definitely heating up boys

Would love to see Mbappe Prizm base hit and stay at $150.

Thanks

Smalltraditions sold a few of them.

Thanks for the breadcrumb...I can only imagine that is a noted trimmer. I purchased in Dec2018 from someone on eBay named 1973_David_1973. Is it confirmed that these run the same size as modern cards?

Jeff1970Red · 05-06-2020, 10:54 PM

Looks like that was a confirmation... I don’t know for sure, but after a few drinks I tend to read between the lines.

Maybe @anish @fadster or @asianbrizz knows about it.

Thanks, I reached out to them. I appreciate the help.

I don't have any 2004/05 mundi cromo at the moment but I have compared others to the same Prizm card I randomly plucked. The Iniesta is a tiny bit shorter whereas the Raul and Griezmann are on the long side. How much shorter are we talking?

Thanks for the response. Here are a couple pics, including one with the Messi laid on top of a random Prizm card. Looks like the Messi measures slightly smaller than the standard 2.5 x 3.5.

A local guy has a bunch of sealed 2016 Donruss Jumbo Pack boxes (12 packs - 24 card/pack) for $15 each. I picked up one of these, 3 single jumbo packs plus the entire 2017 Topps Chrome Future Stars and Lightning Strikes sets for $28!

I'd say not a bad deal at all! Both Mbappe Chrome inserts look perfect.

The Donruss box was fun to open, pulled a Swirlorama CR7 (has a dinged corner).

Do you think it's worth it to grab more of these boxes at the price?

i would buy all the boxes

Unopened soccer is going to rise big time as the market climbs. With all of the money and interest pouring in. I’m interested to see how manufacturers respond as far as putting out new products and continuing existing lines.

I love that TC is establishing a legacy alongside Prizm. Somebody mentioned it before, but it may be wise for Donruss to put out Optic separate from regular Donruss as in other sports.

Personally, I loved the Revolution cards that were only put out for a year. Also, the Obsidian product is super sharp, I’m hoping this will be an annual release.

This was my initial thought upon the first purchase but after opening the product, I was a little underwhelmed. Getting the CR7 Swirlorama was exciting but in the grand scheme of things, nothing that is going to bring in huge $$.

I suppose the thought would be to sit on these instead of opening? The guy has 20 boxes left.

Swirlorama is rare. There is only one psa 10. I have been collecting ronaldo for the past few years and they pop very rarely in ebay

It does look on the small side but I'm really not sure how great the quality control was on these. It looks like it's as out on the small side as two of mine are to the large side but obviously that's more worrying as it could be trimmed. Does anyone else here have any mis-sized Mundi Cromos?

it's $15 a box

how much "cheaper" should it be?

mark my words, you'll want these sealed in a year

thealonzoman · 05-08-2020, 03:33 AM

Messi and Ronaldo 2014 PSA 10 Prizm base on ebay getting a touch up! both over $200+

Miskatonicman · 05-08-2020, 08:29 AM

Donruss 2018-19 jumbo boxes now hitting $150! Blasters at $28! Doesn't seem like very long ago at all when I picked up some jumbo boxes at $19 and the blasters were sitting around $7.

Similar things with the Select 17/18 hangers. I picked up a case of 20 of these for $90 a few months back...now they're $40 EACH!

It's absolutely incredible!

jjeanius · 05-08-2020, 11:33 AM

nm...

fadster · 05-08-2020, 11:35 AM

By jumbo do you guys mean hobby boxes or the fat pack boxes?

k13 · 05-08-2020, 12:14 PM

Ebay is just flooded with all this 2014 WC...high bins and barely any sales...

At least put your overpriced junk in auctions before it is too late.

If a card is not selling at $249...I doubt yours will sell for $500...

K13 you are the opposite of a flipper..your a flopper. Your attempts to soften the market have failed, miserably. But please keep posting, I love it.

Blowout posted a small amount of 17/18 Chrome soccer at 399 a box. No cases though. With refractors near 800 of Mbappe it's still a nice bet to do ok.
