I agree Ohtani is underpriced particularly for anything shortprinted. Just look at Heritage for example, his base PSA #600 goes for $125-150, POP 4326, since it is high number you almost get one per hobby box, plus there are all the variations (chrome/hot box ETC) and his SP Action Image #17 is a better image, was one of his first MLB RCs, no variations and is PSA 10 POP 314 and only goes for about 4-5X of the high number version. Also the high number Action Image #600 PSA 10 is only pop 289 and goes for just 2-3X of the base #600. I am sure you can look at all his other "flagship" type set cards and see similar stats. I'm just saying the SPs are underpriced compared to the base card versions. And even the base card versions might be underpriced as well looking at how amazing Ohtani is.

Because auto grades are dumb.

To me, the auto is an obvious 10. I have graded some cards with PSA auto grades in the past when it cost the same, but overall I find it unnecessary and it doesn't always result in higher resale. It also creates variation in my collection.

I would like to think people use their eyeballs and adjust price based on auto quality. Maybe I ask too much

If Ohtani winds up staying with the Angels, my plan is to buy a bunch more red refractors of any year. It's rare to find a unique card that will only increase by 20 or 30 each year and is pretty much guaranteed to be his most attractive card each year going forward

If Angels make the playoffs, I can't even imagine the viewership when Ohtani pitches. This is a really fun season. Hopefully they sweep here.

Any red is a great card!!
